Western environmentalists might value their independence, but their organizations are largely donor driven, and if he wanted to, Putin could have a lot to donate.

As a result of the carbon-dioxide enrichment of the Earth's atmosphere, plants are now growing faster. Furthermore, global warming lengthens the growing season and increases net rainfall.

The EPA code needs to set forth a clear, regular, and rational system of penalties for violations of its code, with the amount of the penalty set in proportion to the amount of pollutant released by a given defendant, and no penalties imposed in the absence of any pollutant released.

Global warming would increase the rate of evaporation from the oceans. This would increase rainfall worldwide. In addition, global warming would lengthen the growing season, thereby increasing still further the bounty of both agriculture and nature.

Carbon is the stuff of life, and it's the stuff of everything used by human society. All of our materials are made of carbon or of substances, such as steel or glass, which are produced through the utilization of carbon.

Instead of forcing everyone to buy health insurance, Congress should pass a law protecting the uninsured from being charged more than the insurance companies are for a given service.

The well-stuffed slave masters currently gorging themselves in Cuba's halls of power need to be held accountable.

The anti-American policy is the one that keeps oil prices up. The way to do that is to help OPEC limit the amount of liquid fuel available.

If the auto companies were free agents, they would act to break the fuel monopoly that is so damaging to their own interests and those of their customers. But they are not, and so they won't.

The NASA humans-to-Mars program is all sizzle and no steak.

In what was called the second siege of Leningrad, thousands died, but Putin and his partners in crime got rich. Then Putin killed even more Russians when he had the FSB explode bombs in apartment buildings in Moscow in 1999 to give himself the pretext to seize dictatorial powers.

Being the manager of Manchester City is fantastic for me. It's good.

Villarreal is a difficult place to go, and if you want to win there, you have to play very hard and very well.

I think a player like Van Persie can play for every team because he's a top player.

When I played, I always wanted to attack. This is my philosophy.

In football, you can do well even without spending huge amounts.

Sometimes you think that a reconstruction project can be done more quickly than you expected.

I have said many times that I was a Juventus fan when I was a child.

Living in England is fascinating: I discover a new world every day.

There are players whose only target is their day off, and that is a big problem.

When I played, sometimes we would have one game in a week; now there are no free moments, no time, not even for family.

Ibrahimovic? In my opinion, Ibra is the best striker in Europe. It makes me laugh when people say he misses crucial chances.

Trequartista is an important position in the team.

It is very difficult when I have to choose a first 11 because I understand the feelings that players gave when players are on the bench; it is very difficult.

You can only win if you have good players.

In every team, there are players that don't seem important, but in the end, they prove to be one of the most important players. These players are quiet but can play in every position. They help the manager and their team-mates and are always available. They fight for every ball.

I know only one way: work hard.

I was lucky enough to experience an exceptional period with City. We won so much and played great football.

To lead your country is the crowning ambition for any coach.

I do not think I will go to China. They called me, but I said no because, for me, the real place for football is in Europe.

The Scottish fans are the best in the world. I love them.

If Celtic were to build a team strong enough to regularly compete in the Champions League, I might decide to manage them one day.

In the national team, the armband always goes to the player with the most caps.

I think that Balotelli could be as good as Torres - and even better than him.

Torres is a fantastic striker, and I think it was difficult for Liverpool to sell him because he's such an important player for them.

You need two or three players who can do that - play behind the striker, on the right wing, the left wing... striker, maybe. If we have those, it's good for the team.

It's important to work with a team if you believe in the project. If I'm not happy, I leave. This is true for everyone in every job.

I like to work on the pitch, and only in this way can you beat important teams. If you don't believe in yourself and your job, it's difficult.

People talk about the speed of the English game, but in Italy, referees blow their whistles very often, so you cannot build up speed. In England, referees wave play on, and so it becomes faster.

English football is very different from Italian; it's more physical, and matches are always very open.

When I was a player, I was always interested in management.

You don't win games by being aggressive. You win by being relaxed.

When you win, you are at the top, and when you lose, you are a stupid manager.

When you lose, people don't understand why you play this way or don't pick that player.

You are born with the talent; then you work with it. You develop the right mentality.

I like to take up difficult challenges and work hard towards achieving my goals.

I always win. I think, one season with Lazio, we didn't win anything, but our premier target was to take the Champions League place, and we got into the Champions League.

At Inter, I earned my wages based on the results on the field.

I believe I have demonstrated the ability to coach and work well under pressure.

I won with Fiorentina, Lazio, and Inter.
