Quotations regarding 'Energy'

Choose a letter: 
As skills and energy became more of a demand, people who didn't have skills just got left behind, got shuttled to the side. Education didn't keep up with their promise. Education didn't prepare them for this new world. Jobs went overseas.
Julian Bond, American Activist (1940-  )
I felt devalued and disrespected. The energy behind it felt disingenuous and motivated by corporate profit.
Lisa Bonet, American Actress (1967-  )
Dealing with complexity is an inefficient and unnecessary waste of time, attention and mental energy. There is never any justification for things being complex when they could be simple.
Edward de Bono, English Psychologist (1933-  )
With gas prices nationally, and especially in our area, increasingly on the rise, it is more crucial then ever that we take steps to diversify our energy sources and reduce our dependency on foreign oil.
Mary Bono, American Politician (1961-  )
A man must drive his energy, not be driven by it.
William Frederick Book, -
Strict conservation of energy in the elementary process had thus been confirmed also by a negative experiment.
Walther Bothe, German Physicist (1891-1957)
In this case, the particle formed has correspondingly less energy, whereas the product nucleus passes into the ground state with emission of the quantity of energy saved as gamma radiation.
Walther Bothe, German Physicist (1891-1957)
So when you go up against the Far Right you go up against the big financial special interests like the Halliburtons of the world, the big oil companies, the big energy companies who work so hard to rip us off.
Barbara Boxer, American Politician (1940-  )
I would not run for president. I really like what I'm doing now. People say I'm giving them energy and hope.
Barbara Boxer, American Politician (1940-  )
You can find more traditional Shakespeare than we do. But what we want to bring to these works is energy, passion, freshness.
John Bradshaw, American Philosopher
In terms of weapons, the best disarmament tool so far is nuclear energy. We have been taking down the Russian warheads, turning it into electricity. 10 percent of American electricity comes from decommissioned warheads.
Stewart Brand, American Author (1938-  )
Let's leave behind the predictable and stale debate between liberals and conservatives. Let's take the resources that we have, and prioritize, and manage, and focus our energy on just doing things that count - on real results.
Phil Bredesen, American Politician (1943-  )
We didn't rehearse or play the songs to death before we recorded them, and that let us catch a freshness and energy level we've never really felt while making records.
Edie Brickell, American Musician (1966-  )
There are moments when you feel free, moments when you have energy, moments when you have hope, but you can't rely on any of these things to see you through. Circumstances do that.
Anita Brookner, English Historian (1938-  )
The truest help we can render an afflicted man is not to take his burden from him, but to call out his best energy, that he may be able to bear the burden.
Phillips Brooks, American Clergyman (1835-  )
All I know about thermal pollution is that if we continue our present rate of growth in electrical energy consumption it will simply take, by the year 2000, all our freshwater streams to cool the generators and reactors.
David R. Brower, American Environmentalist (1912-2000)
It seems that every time mankind is given a lot of energy, we go out and wreck something with it.
David R. Brower, American Environmentalist (1912-2000)
Is the minor convenience of allowing the present generation the luxury of doubling its energy consumption every 10 years worth the major hazard of exposing the next 20,000 generations to this lethal waste?
David R. Brower, American Environmentalist (1912-2000)
I will say this, - though: If it is true that fusion will put unlimited amounts of energy into our hands, then I'm worried. Our record on this score is extremely poor.
David R. Brower, American Environmentalist (1912-2000)
I believe that the average guy in the street will give up a great deal, if he really understands the cost of not giving it up. In fact, we may find that, while we're drastically cutting our energy consumption, we're actually raising our standard of living.
David R. Brower, American Environmentalist (1912-2000)
