I would be very proverb

 I would be very happy to see 3.5 billion humans wiped out from the face of the earth within the next 150 or 200 years and I am quite prepared to go myself with this majority ... Let us all look forward to the day when the catastrophe strikes us down!

 Worrying that a catastrophe will hit earth tomorrow is a constant worry for some, but that shouldn't be an issue when it comes to investment. You can't be fully prepared for unforeseeable events.

 We were prepared for one catastrophe. The second catastrophe, frankly, added a level of challenge that no one has seen before.

 We were prepared for one catastrophe, ... The second catastrophe, frankly, added a level of challenge that no one has seen before.

 Given the massive catastrophe losses absorbed by insurers in nine-months 2005, the increase in income and surplus during the first three quarters of the year is a testament to the underlying financial health of the industry. But we can't afford to lose sight of the fact that, as bad as Hurricanes Katrina and Rita were, insurers and the public remain exposed to far more devastating catastrophes that could strain insurers' ability to fulfill their obligations to policyholders. According to PCS, Hurricane Katrina caused a record $38.1 billion in direct insured losses to property. But catastrophe modeling by AIR Worldwide shows we face the prospect of hurricanes causing more than $100 billion in damage. Even as we applaud insurers' success coping with the catastrophes of 2005, we must do more to assure that insurers and the people they serve will survive when even more devastating storms strike.

 We are very happy to be in this position to return almost $75 billion in capital to investors over four years, ... We're also pleased to be able to say that we put many of our legal issues in the rear view mirror so to speak, which affords us the opportunity to move forward with the cash management plan.

 It has taken fifteen billion years to get you here. That is scientific fact. We are not just the products of our parents. Sixty percent of our body is hydrogen atoms. The hydrogen atoms in us go back to the fireball fourteen billion years ago. We have been around a long time, and it has been a great birthing process to bring us forward.

 If the universe was finite, and had a size of about 4 billion to 5 billion light-years, then light would be able to wrap around the universe, and with a big enough telescope we could view the Earth just after it solidified and when the first life formed. Unfortunately, our results rule out this tantalizing possibility.

 When he prepared the heavens, I was there: when he set a compass upon the face of the depth: / When he established the clouds above: when he strengthened the fountains of the deep: / When he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters should not pass his commandment: when he appointed the foundations of the earth: / Then I was by him, as one brought up with him: and I was daily his delight, rejoicing always before him; / Rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth; and my delights were with the sons of men.

 The largest catastrophe to date was 1992's Hurricane Andrew, which cost $20 billion to $23 billion. This is highly likely to be bigger, but how much bigger? No one knows.

 If something has been prepared for sea (shipping) and suddenly it needs to be flown, then the cargo probably needs to be prepared for flying very differently than it was prepared for sea. We have to put this together at very short notice. It strikes us that to do planning in advance would be more sensible.

 How is it possible that, almost four years to the day after the attacks on our country, with billions of dollars spent to improve our preparedness, that a major area of our nation was so ill-prepared to respond to a catastrophe?

 Everyone's relying on the modelers because there's no firm data. The largest catastrophe to date was 1992's Hurricane Andrew, which cost $20 billion to $23 billion. This is highly likely to be bigger, but how much bigger? No one knows.

 I think that the lesson of this hurricane, which we will clearly look at as we go over an after-action evaluation, is going to be very valuable in moving forward. I mean, this was an ultra-catastrophe, but we have to be prepared even for ultra-catastrophes, even things that happen once in a lifetime and once in a generation. So, yes, we will be studying that.
