Fuel prices are at the center of our lives. They affect our ability to travel, stay warm, and feed ourselves.
Most people want to be rich but they do not want to pay the price, in fact there are ways of becoming rich in which the odds are in the person's favor
People who pay the price for security may never really feel secure rather the more their insecurity grows inside them because they are paying the price for action but not their internal reaction
It costs governments money to keep fuel prices low. Oil-rich Yemen, for instance, devotes 9 percent of its GDP to making sure its people don't riot when oil prices rise.
The rise in the price of gold is a sign that capitalism has stumbled.

I don't know why I am internally a violent person. I don't have the normal nerve endings most people do, which was very good for me as a pilot in Viet Nam. When most people are afraid, I'm actually quite excited about things. The more dangerous something is, the happier I am.
