More quotes by Jacque Fresco
The majority of the people of the world today are unsane, not insane, unsane meaning having been exposed to methods of evaluation that have long rendered obsolete.
Jacque Fresco
If our system continues without modification involving environmental and social concern, we will face an economic and social break down.
Jacque Fresco
If you're shipwrecked on an island with 10 million dollars and your wife has gold and diamonds, but there's no water, no arable land, no fish, you have nothing. Money is a 'nothing' thing.
Jacque Fresco
Only when science and technology are used with human concern in a world in which all of the earth's resources are held as the common heritage of all of the earth's people can we truly say that there is intelligent life on Earth.
Jacque Fresco
And you can't find love because in order to find love you have to be capable of dishing it out. In order to be capable of giving love, your own life has to be in harmony with everything else, and that's not attainable.
Jacque Fresco
There's no way to design a society that's optimal or utopian. It's better than the one that was. Systems always undergo change.
Jacque Fresco
There are no negro problems, or Polish problems, or Jewish problems, or Greek problems, or women's problems, there are HUMAN PROBLEMS”.
Jacque Fresco
The future is our responsibility, but change will not take place until the majority loose confidence in their dictator’s and elected officials’ ability to solve problems. It will likely take an economic catastrophe resulting in enormous human suffering to bring about true social change.
Jacque Fresco
When you live in a false society, that bases its wealth upon money, then that society itself will collapse eventually. Not because I say so, because it's not based on physical reference.
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
Lack of education turns soldiers into killing machines.
Jacque Fresco
We have more than enough to take care of everybody on earth at this time. If we have a shortage of anything, it's very easy for science to make a substitute material. There's no shortage of anything except brains in Washington.
Jacque Fresco
The government means industry, if you know what I mean.
Jacque Fresco
You can't be conscious unless you have variable receptors... When people say the way I see the world is the way it is - that's ridiculous. We can only see it depending on the quality of our receptors and background.
Jacque Fresco
We could either develop paradise on Earth or oblivion wipe ourselves out, only the future will tell. It's what you do to make the future.
Jacque Fresco
The question is not whether there is intelligent life out there, the question is, whether there is intelligent life down here. As long as you have war, police, prisons, crime, you are in the early stages of civilization.
Jacque Fresco
Anthropology studies different cultures mainly primitive, but it doesn't think its own culture is primitive, unfortunately. There is no field that you can study today that isn't trapped in the culture in some way. It's hard to escape your culture.
Jacque Fresco
Much of a behavior acceptable today would be socially offensive in a saner or more logical arrangement.
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
If all things keep changing, how can you become sane?
