Jacque Fresco
The intelligent use of science and technology are the tools with which to achieve a new direction.
Jacque Fresco
It’s your own expectations that hurt you. Not the world you live in. Whatever happens in the world is real. What you think should happen is unreal. So people are hurt by their expectations. You know , you’re not disappointed by the world, you are disappointed by your own projections.
