• As President, I was able to save with the stroke of the pen a hundred million acres of wilderness area in Alaska. This is the kind of thing that is is gratifying to a President, but to be on a solitary stream with good friends, with a fly rod in your hand, and to have a successfull or even an unsuccessful day-they're all successful-is an even greater delight.

• Growing up in Alaska, they don't really teach you to swim there. I learned to swim just a few summers ago with Olympic gold medalist Amanda Beard. She did great, and right after that I went to get scuba certified. I had fun with it. I didn't really get scared, but some people thought that was a risk.

• The name Alaska is probably an abbreviation of Unalaska, derived from the original Aleut word agunalaksh, which means "the shores where the sea breaks its back." The war between water and land is never-ending. Waves shatter themselves in spent fury against the rocky bulwarks of the coast; giant tides eat away the sand beaches and alter the entire contour of an island overnight; williwaw winds pour down the side of a volcano like snow sliding off a roof, building to a hundred-mile velocity in a matter of minutes and churning the ocean into a maelstrom where the stoutest vessels founder.

• Espero que el intento de sacar petróleo del enorme yacimiento de Alaska no se quede indefinidamente empantanado en un marasmo burocrático como consecuencia de nuestra preocupación nacional por la ecología. Esta preocupación no debe estar tan mal orientada, mal dirigida, mal utilizada que sirva para detener el crecimiento económico, para llevar a la quiebra a las empresas, para ahogar el nuevo desarrollo, los nuevos empleos, los nuevos horizontes. Para luchar contra la nueva contaminación y frenar la actual, existen medios y métodos interesantes, a veces costosos, y otros seguirán evolucionando. Pero el rechazo legislativo generalizado a la expansión de las fuentes de energía es estúpido y contraproducente.

• En la década de 1970, "Los chicos del autobús" puso de manifiesto cómo una pandilla de periodistas políticos masculinos dominaba el camino hacia la Casa Blanca y daba forma a las noticias. Cuatro décadas después, una chica de Alaska se ha hecho con el autobús de los medios de comunicación en 2012 y ha dejado a los periodistas de dentro comiéndose el polvo.

• We are the first atheistic and global, all-embracing civilization. You cannot tell whether you are sitting at an airport in Hong Kong or in a hotel in Alaska. Everything is instrumentalized, subjected to a short-term purpose. It is quite possible that in such a situation any sense of a deeper meaning gets lost.

• Cuando juré mi cargo para servir como Gobernador, recuerden, juré velar firme y tenazmente por los intereses de este gran estado como un oso pardo con cachorros, como una madre vela naturalmente por los suyos. Alaska, como familia estatal, tenemos que luchar unos por otros, no en contra, y no dejar que las distracciones externas y sensacionalistas nos desvíen del rumbo. Ahora que empieza un año apasionante de cambios impredecibles, nosotros también tenemos mucho trabajo por delante. Y todos estamos juntos en esto. Al igual que nuestros bueyes almizcleros, se agrupan para proteger su futuro cuando se ven amenazados. Nosotros tenemos que hacer lo mismo.
