I did some pastels and I did other pieces in which there was just basically one color per square, and then they would get bigger and I could get 2 or 3 colors into the square, and ultimately I just started making oil paintings.
Chuck Close

I didn't sign any contracts, and I didn't see any oil.
Vladimir Zhirinovsky

I don't see a groundswell of people willing to raise gas taxes right now. That leaves fuel economy standards as the only effective tool we have as a nation to make a dent in our dangerous and ever growing consumption of oil.
Sherwood Boehlert

I fear that our true motivation is about oil and our own flailing economy; about the failure to destroy Al Qaeda and about revenge.
Dave Matthews

I feel like I'm working on an oil rig right now. I'm away from home a lot.
Hugh Laurie

I find linseed oil and white lead the most satisfactory mediums.
Edward Hopper

I fought fire with oil.
Dalton Trumbo

I have never solicited nor received money from Iraq for our campaign against war and sanctions. I have never seen a barrel of oil, never owned one, never bought one, never sold one.
George Galloway

I have read many studies out of the Karolinska Institute in Sweden and they demonstrated that Vitamin E, Co-Q-10, and Fish Oil could protect the immune system of athletes and prevent disease.
Bill Toomey

I think we have to ask this administration, and the President specifically, about using their political capital now to stand up for the American consumer who is getting clobbered by these gasoline and oil prices.
Ron Wyden

I will work for energy policies that recognize oil won't last forever.
Roscoe Bartlett

I worked offshore as an oil worker for a couple of years.
Richard Linklater

I've never had a penny through oil deals and no one has produced a shred of evidence that I have.
George Galloway

I've never seen oil slicks covering such a large area in the Gulf of Mexico.
John Amos

I've often argued that oil and gas exploration is a state's rights issue. It is abundantly clear that the State of Florida does not want drilling to negatively affect its beaches and shores.
Jeff Miller

If a war started, the oil price probably would go up, as you said, maybe $5, $6 a barrel until you saw other oil from the extra supplies that are available elsewhere coming into the world, into the market.
Daniel Yergin

If I think too much about all of those Chinese factories where all the stuff in a Wal-Mart is made, I get that woozy feeling you get when you see ducks covered in crude oil.
Doug Coupland

If London is a watercolor, New York is an oil painting.
Peter Shaffer

If oil companies were to invest their high profits into alternative fuel research it will help America move toward new forms of energy.
Rick Renzi

If our country is serious about reducing our dependency on foreign oil, we need to get serious about mobilizing the infrastructure necessary to distribute and dispense the next generation of fuels.
