Venezuela Quotations
Venezuela Quotes from:
-
Boarding Quotes
My parents sent me from Venezuela to the Convent of Our Lady, a boarding school in Hastings, which was horrible - like Harry Potter without the magic. Sometimes we went into town, and if we were caught chewing gum in our uniform, members of the public would take down our names and report us to the school.

Access Quotes
I went down to Venezuela and ended up renting a helicopter and flew with my sons to the tops of the tepuis, these freestanding jungle mesas, 'lost worlds' as it were. In fact, it's almost impossible to access them without one. So we were able to land and spend some time there. We were trapped for about six hours by clouds that came in.

Cope Quotes
Venezuela is privileged to be able to help the United States in this time of need. We see ourselves as a compassionate people and hope that our efforts will help cope with current market needs of the U.S. for gasoline, and provide some immediate relief to the victims of this horrific natural disaster.

Affect Quotes
We've seen the energy shock before, but the difference today is there isn't a lot of excess capacity anymore. The unknowns in countries like Nigeria, Iran and Venezuela have an immediate affect on oil prices. Without excess capacity, anything that takes production off line can spike prices.

Dave Quotes
Of course, I know about Bo Diaz - he's from Venezuela! ... I know all about the players from Venezuela - Luis Aparicio, Dave Concepcion, Andres Galarraga, the Big Cat. It's a big deal when any player from Venezuela makes it to the major leagues. But the idea is to stay there, and I'm a long way from that.
-
Arabia Quotes
Nigeria is the major driver behind the price rise. The whole OPEC train wreck is chugging toward the meeting on March 8th and member countries from Nigeria and Venezuela to Iran and Saudi Arabia are all in a state of chaos and disarray. Not to mention the fact that they all have some gripe with the U.S.

Addition Quotes
I think the concept is a wonderful concept. It'll be carried on television. Because of the nationalism involved, it could take on greater meaning in countries like Japan or the Dominican Republic or Venezuela than perhaps it would in the United States. But because of the nationalistic feeling, it could be a nice little launching pad because it is played in March. I think it's an interesting concept that should grow over the years. If you give it time, five or six or seven years from now, this could be a nice addition to the sports landscape and a big event.

Along Quotes
While a near-term supply disruption from Venezuela does not seem likely, the country's inability to meet its OPEC quota makes the government famously hawkish when it comes to defending an oil price floor for the group. This fact, along with a lack of foreign investment in the Venezuelan energy sector, should be seen as bullish factors for global oil prices. We do not see this changing until such time as the government adopts more favorable policies towards foreign oil companies.
-
Act Quotes
We owe it to our own citizens to ensure that we have contingency plans, should such a reduction or interruption come to pass, ... But let me say that this would be an illogical act on the part of the government of Venezuela. Venezuela and the U.S. are natural partners in oil, for simple, common sense geographic reasons.
-
Ahead Quotes
With less than 2.0 million barrels of spare production capacity, even with higher-than-average supply of oil, the margin of error in the world oil market has never been thinner. And with worries about possible supply disruptions in Iran, Nigeria and Venezuela and another hurricane season ahead of us, traders are betting that it's likely something is going to go wrong.
-
Against Quotes
Right now we are at the disposition to offer an excellent game against Japan. ... We respect our opponent highly. Remember that at the beginning of the tournament, we said that no one should think less of the Asian teams. It was a time when the United States, Venezuela and the Dominican Republic were the favorites. Life and the event itself have shown otherwise.
-
Assistant Quotes
Our dealings with Venezuela and our contacts with Venezuela are mostly through our embassy. There was a Venezuelan official here a couple of weeks ago, met with Assistant Secretary Shannon and other State Department officials, but there's been no recent contact from Assistant Secretary Shannon to the government or plans for a visit.
-
Areas Quotes
Geopolitics ought to be something in the forefront of everyone's minds. The developments in Iran and the sort of related energy issues with Iraq, Venezuela and Nigeria are all areas that need to be paid attention to very closely, with the tone of current events impacting the crude market, which is likely to impact both fixed-income and equity markets.
-
Call Quotes
I call him the rock star because everywhere he goes and everything he does, everybody knows about it. He's the man here in Venezuela and he deserves it. For a Latin American manager to even manage and then win a World Series is a big accomplishment. All Latin Americans should be proud of what he accomplished.

Alex Quotes
Alex is not a hypocrite. I was just trying to say he doesn't have to please people. He doesn't have to make people from the United States or from the Dominican Republic or from Venezuela happy. When you do that, you sound like you are a hypocrite. You say, 'Hey I want to play for the United States and that's the team I belong on,' move on and that's it.
