All the people like us are we and everyone else is They.

In America everybody is of the opinion that he has no social superiors since all men are equal but he does not admit that he has no social inferiors for from the time of Jefferson onward the doctrine that all men are equal applies only upwards not downwards.

I am free of all prejudices. I hate every one equally.

I believe in equality for everyone except reporters and photographers.

I tell my environmental friends that they have won. Every issue we look at from an energy perspective is now also looked at from an environmental perspective.

Practically every environmental problem we have can be traced to our addiction to fossil fuels primarily oil.

Address these environmental issues and you will address every issue known to man. And we keep dabbling in things that aren't really that important in the long term.

We're not trying to reinvent the wheel for any environmental organization to claim sole responsibility for any kind of victory is insane because everybody attacks these problems as a group.

We created the Cabinet Committee on the Environment to review the environmental implications of all government initiatives. I think what made us successful was the fact that it was a sustained approach. We did something new every year.

Federal elections happen every two years in this country. Presidential elections every four years. And four years just isn't long enough to dismantle all the environmental laws we've got in this country.

In every case the environmental hazards were made known only by independent scientists who were often bitterly opposed by the corporations responsible for the hazards.

Civilization has given us enormous successes: going to the moon technology. But then this is the civilisation that took us to debt environmental crisis every single crisis. We need a civilization where we say goodbye to these things.

At every turn when humanity is asked the question 'Do you want temporary economic gain or long-term environmental loss which one do you prefer ' we invariably choose the money.

The industrial processes in use today were developed at a time when no one had to consider what the environmental impact was. Who cared? But making ecological concerns matter to a company's bottom line will help it do the research and development that will reinvent everything we buy.

In the environmental movement every time you lose a battle it's for good but our victories always seem to be temporary and we keep fighting them over and over again.

Mankind is considered (by the radical environmentalists) the lowest and the meanest of all species and is blamed for everything.

Population when unchecked goes on doubling itself every 25 years or increases in a geometrical ratio.

Unless we keep this planet healthy everything else is for naught.

We assume that everything's becoming more efficient and in an immediate sense that's true our lives are better in many ways. But that improvement has been gained through a massively inefficient use of natural resources.

It is absolutely imperative that we protect preserve and pass on this genetic heritage for man and every other living thing in as good a condition as we received it.

It seems that every time mankind is given a lot of energy we go out and wreck something with it.

The only way forward if we are going to improve the quality of the environment is to get everybody involved.

Every time I have some moment on a seashore or in the mountains or sometimes in a quiet forest I think this is why the environment has to be preserved.

When we try to pick out anything by itself we find it hitched to everything else in the universe.
