 People who want to curb the use of fossil fuels need to understand that not everyone in the world has the luxury of inventing romanticized scenarios. Many people just need clean water and energy to fuel social and economic progress. |
| The competitive instinct is what I think drives organizations and people to become better and better. It can promote change toward progress and development, which is good for everybody. It can be the motivating force behind improvement in our social well-being that is far beyond anything we might have imagined on our own. |
| The freedoms that people have that flow from all civic institutions fundamentally come from the success of a market system. |
| The main professional responsibility of a person in business is business. |
| The market system requires that people be committed and willing to work hard. Inherent with that is what I call a merit system, which I think gives people the greatest opportunity. |
| There is hardly an activity that a person can think about that does not intrinsically involve energy, most of which is currently provided by fossil fuels. |
| There is no system that is inherently moral if the participants themselves are not. |
| We have seen that in this country in the last few years, particularly on Wall Street, with the rise of the old human frailty of greed. This occurs when people begin to serve only their own needs to the detriment of everyone else. |
| We obviously want to produce things that people want. We are going to continue to do that in an environmentally responsible way, while still being aware of the physical, scientific, and practical issues that we have to deal with. |
| We should seek a system that provides outlets for those skills and talents so that everyone can find a way to work and serve in a manner that best suits the strengths of each individual. |
| When you add it all up, that energy legislation is zero in terms of how it affects Exxon Mobil. |
| Without competition, the spectacular development of technology that we have seen in the last one hundred years in this country would not have happened. |
