Let's teach our children to be thinkers.
Jacque Fresco
We can work out anything if we put our mind to it, study it, do hard work instead of finding simple answers
Jacque Fresco
Working with drug addicts, alcoholics, and so-called juvenile delinquents in New York City convinced me that instead of working with individuals, more effective methods would deal with the societal conditions that create dysfunctional behaviors in the first place.

If you remain conventional and don't change, you'll get along. You'll get along in the limited forms of insanity that exist out there. You'll never be able to keep a marriage together, you'll never be able to keep anything together, because the whole goddamn thing isn't together.
Jacque Fresco
If you love someone and they want to leave, you help them pack. That's love
Jacque Fresco
I'd declare all the world's resources as a common heritage of all the world's people and get them to join and become one nation who takes care of the environment, the earth, the atmosphere. I'd abolish all separate nations because they are all corrupt.

Jacque Fresco
We live in a world where our social system is old, our language is old, the way we acquire goods and services is outdated, our cities are detrimental to our health, chaotic and a tremendous waste of resource, and most of all our politics and values no longer serve us.
Jacque Fresco
Wiser, never wise. Smarter, never smart.
Jacque Fresco
When biological technology becomes further advanced, human beings as we know them, will become a modified species. If we as human beings fail to include the possibility of this development in our overall, social evolution we will witness the decline of our species
Jacque Fresco
You cannot approach people who think differently with reason and logic if they don't know what that means. First, you have to appeal to their values to start with. If you attack them, you lose them.
Jacque Fresco
The social designs that are proposed in [The Venus Project] merely provide the opportunity for individuals to develop their fullest potential in whatever endeavor they choose without the fear of loss of individuality or submission to uniformity.
Jacque Fresco
War represents the supreme failure of nations to resolve their differences. From a strictly pragmatic standpoint, it is the most inefficient waste of lives and resources ever conceived.
Jacque Fresco
LOVE is to stop making demands on people and give them room to grow.
Jacque Fresco
The Venus Project is not about new cities or new architecture. It's about a way of thinking
Jacque Fresco
