Quote

You don't see the plug connected to the environment, so it looks like we're free, wandering around. Take the oxygen away, we all die immediately. Take plant life away, we die. And without the sun, all the plants die. So we are connected.

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.

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.

The Venus Project is neither Utopian nor Orwellian, nor does it reflect the dreams of impractical idealists. Instead, it presents attainable goals requiring only the intelligent application of what we already know. The only limitations are those which we impose upon ourselves.

Truly free people do not need to be told they are free.

I am afraid to live in the society we live in today. Our society cannot be maintained by this type of incompetency.

We can work out anything if we put our mind to it, study it, do hard work instead of finding simple answers
Jacque Fresco
Image
If our system continues without modification involving environmental and social concern, we will face an economic and social break down.

The uncreative mind can spot the wrong answers, but it takes a very creative mind to spot the wrong questions The question has never been: Do we have the money? The question has always been: Do we have the resources?
