Saudi Arabian Oil Reserves

Simmons bases his case on hundreds of internal documents from Saudi Aramco, professional journals and other authoritative sources.

Famous quotes containing the words arabian, oil and/or reserves:

    O animal excellence,
    Take pterodactyl flight
    Fire-winged into the air
    And find your lair
    With cunning sense
    On some Arabian bight....
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    No skilled hands
    caress a stranger’s flesh with lucid oil before
    a word is spoken
    no feasting
    before a tale is told, before
    the stranger tells his name.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    While you are nurturing your newborn, you need someone to nurture you, whether it is with healthful drinks while you’re nursing, or with words of recognition and encouragement as you talk about your feelings. In this state of continual giving to your infant—whether it is nourishment or care or love—you are easily drained, and you need to be replenished from sources outside yourself so that you will have reserves to draw from.
    Sally Placksin (20th century)
