There is no dependence proverb

 Over a period of time, I have sensed an increased dependence on alcohol. This dependence has taken a toll on my health and other aspects of my life. While this in many ways is a particularly difficult time for me to take a leave from the House, I have reached a point where I feel I must address this problem.

 We all talk about our dependence on imported oil, but our dependence on manufactured goods is two and a half times larger than oil. We're so dependent on imported goods -- from consumer and capital.

 At a time when America must take aggressive steps to reduce oil dependence significantly, the proposal's estimated gasoline savings, less than 1 percent of current consumption, are paltry to the point of irrelevance. This feeble proposal represents failed leadership. It is another troubling sign that the administration refuses to take the dangers of oil dependence seriously. At a time when gasoline prices are skirting $3 per gallon, what will it take for the Bush administration and for Congress to wake up?

 If anything, Katrina has spotlighted the increasing perils of our heavy dependence on oil. There is no prospect whatsoever that opening the Arctic Refuge and protected offshore areas to drilling would reduce the nation's energy supply and price vulnerabilities. Whether it comes from off America's coasts, from Alaska's Arctic via an aging aboveground pipeline, or from the politically unstable Middle East, oil is an increasingly vulnerable energy source. Heavy oil dependence leaves our economy wide open to price and supply shocks.

 There is no dependence that can be sure but a dependence upon one's self

 We want to leave behind our dependence on oil,

 Just as we can't drill our way out of oil dependence, we can't grow our way out, either.

 You're going to get more dependence, and that's an increased tax burden on everybody.

 The inevitable consequence of poverty is dependence
  Samuel Johnson

 Now one was either Tory or Whig; it was either dependence or independence.

 Our economic dependence on oil is much less than it was even 10 years ago. If inflation comes, it won't be as big a hit as it was in the '80s.

 Things derive their being and nature by mutual dependence and are nothing in themselves
  Nagarjuna
