"Saya percaya [Departemen Energi] harus dinilai bukan dengan uang yang kami arahkan ke Negara atau distrik, perusahaan, universitas atau laboratorium nasional tertentu, tetapi berdasarkan karakter keputusan kami. Departemen Energi melayani negara sebagai Departemen Ilmu Pengetahuan, Departemen Inovasi, dan Departemen Keamanan Nuklir."

--- Steven Chu

Versi Bahasa Inggris

I believe [the Department of Energy] should be judged not by the money we direct to a particular State or district, company, university or national lab, but by the character of our decisions. The Department of Energy serves the country as a Department of Science, a Department of Innovation, and a Department of Nuclear Security.
