“Innovation is the specific instrument of entrepreneurship...the act that endows resources with a new capacity to create wealth.”

“Wealth is created when we use existing resources in new ways. Since such creativity is virtually limitless, wealth is too.”

“God's greatest gift is to endow human beings with the capacity to perceive - and the create - holiness.”

“Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we.”

“That is why it could happen anywhere, given the right ingredients: particular people in government, competing with others- or with each other- over natural and wealth-creating resources.”

“The ideal country in a flat world is the one with no natural resources, because countries with no natural resources tend to dig inside themselves. They try to tap the energy, entrepreneurship, creativity, and intelligence of their own people-men and women-rather than drill an oil well.”
