In 1859 the human race discovered a huge treasure chest in its basement. This was oil and gas, a fantastically cheap and easily available source of energy.

Private property is a means, and neither its abolition nor its unrestricted right should be an end in itself (Kenneth E Boulding Quotes)
The image of the frontier is probably one of the oldest images of mankind, and it is not surprising that we should find it hard to get rid of (Kenneth E Boulding Quotes)
