"Fossil fuels help lift communities out of abject poverty."

"Why is it that the Federal Government is the chief opposition to everything I am trying to do?"

"If we had done a better job of passing the regulations to begin with it wouldn't be necessary for the courts to come in and intervene."

"There is a mentality that somehow Government has to intervene to make sure you are taking care of your property and all this."
