I Am Never Angry, Although Sometimes Distressed.

We Are Grateful To The Washington Post, The New York Times, Time Magazine And Other Great Publications Whose Directors Have Attended Our Meetings And Respected Their Promises Of Discretion For Almost 40 Years......it Would Have Been Impossible For Us To Develop Our Plan For The World If We Had Been Subjected To The Lights Of Publicity During Those Years. But, The World Is More Sophisticated And Prepared To March Towards A World Government. The Supernational Sovereignty Of An Intellectual Elite And World Bankers Is Surely Preferable To The National Autodetermination Practiced In Past Centuries.

The Attacks On The World Trade Center And The Current Economic Recession, Which Is Particularly Powerful In New York City, Have Put A Number Of Building Plans On Hold For The Time Being.

I Think Of Art As The Highest Level Of Creativity. To Me, It Is One Of The Greatest Sources Of Enjoyment.

One Cannot Expect To Coast Along And Rise Automatically To The Top, No Matter What Friends You May Have In The Company. There May Have Been A Time When, In Large Corporations, A Person Could Rise Simply Because He Had A Stock Interest Or Because He Had Friends In Top Management. That's Not True Today. Success In Business Requires Training And Discipline And Hard Work. But If You're Not Frightened By These Things, The Opportunities Are Just As Great Today As They Ever Were.

Some Even Believe We (the Rockefeller Family) Are Part Of A Secret Cabal Working Against The Best Interests Of The United States, Characterizing My Family And Me As 'internationalists' And Of Conspiring With Others Around The World To Build A More Integrated Global Political And Economic Structure - One World, If You Will. If That's The Charge, I Stand Guilty, And I Am Proud Of It.
