I've always been comfortable thinking things through and doing it, more or less, my way. You can be as creative as you want, but if you're... unwilling to work on the details, to see those put into action, then creativity is just dreams, or worse, hallucinations.

Modern life would not be possible if it were not for chemicals, nor would modern natural gas production.

I just wanted to be a businessman, and to me, the best way to understand business was to be an accountant.

Every day you use dozens of products that have strong chemicals in them, but remember, the only difference between poison and medicine is dosage.

I can assure you that buying leases for x and selling them for 5x or 10x is a lot more profitable than trying to produce gas at $5 or $6 per million cubic feet.

I think most people act in their self-interest.

Natural gas is the one fuel that we have that's affordable, it's scaleable, it can replace coal over time, it can replace imported oil, can create American jobs.
