"It's ridiculous that time and time again we need a radioactive cloud coming out of a nuclear power-station to remind us that atomic energy is extraordinarily dangerous"
- Pierre Schaeffer
About this Quote
This quote by Pierre Schaeffer is a commentary on the dangers of nuclear energy. He is pointing out that it is outrageous that we need a tip of the dangers of atomic energy in the kind of a contaminated cloud coming from a nuclear power station. He is indicating that we should currently know the possible threats of nuclear energy and that we should not require a pointer in the kind of a radioactive cloud. He is suggesting that we must be more conscious of the potential risks of nuclear energy and also take even more safety measures to guarantee that it is used safely. This quote acts as a pointer that nuclear energy is an incredibly powerful as well as dangerous form of energy which we need to be aware of the potential risks and take the necessary steps to ensure that it is made use of safely.
"Oh, the miraculous energy that flows between two people who care enough to get beyond surfaces and games, who are willing to take the risks of being totally open, of listening, of responding with the whole heart. How much we can do for each other"
"The war and terrorism in the Middle East, the crisis of leadership in many of the oil-supply countries in the developing world, the crisis of global warming - all these are very clearly tied to energy"
"Further, the United States is moving ahead in the development of clean coal technology. There are vast coal reserves in our country, and when it is burned cleanly, coal can provide a resource to supply a large amount of our energy requirements"
"I think America understands that energy security is a very important part of our national security. But if we are going to address energy security in a meaningful way going forward, we need to do it in a new manner. We cannot just be doing the same old thing"
"Nuclear power will help provide the electricity that our growing economy needs without increasing emissions. This is truly an environmentally responsible source of energy"
"I still felt we had some really good music on that record, but it's a shame that we couldn't make it better. And the tour was a total mess. We just had no life, no energy, and I felt we were going through the motions"
"From beginning to end it's about keeping the energy and the intensity of the story and not doing too much and not doing too little, but just enough so people stay interested and stay involved in the characters"
"Many people worry so much about managing their careers, but rarely spend half that much energy managing their LIVES. I want to make my life, not just my job, the best it can be. The rest will work itself out"
