More quotes by 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
If you make people uniform, you can control them. If you teach people to read, and think, and question things, you lose control. So, the best idea is to separate people if you wish to maintain a monetary system. It's called divide and conquer. By dividing people, they're not a threat, you can control them.
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
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
All the world's people should share all the world's resources.
Jacque Fresco
If all things keep changing, how can you become sane?
Jacque Fresco
You know that you can't go out there and change the world tomorrow morning. It just takes time, and the realization of that does not produce frustration. What produces frustration, is when you expect the world to join with your cause it's so reasonable. It is not reasonable to unreasonable people.
Jacque Fresco
If you make a movie of the present day culture, in the future it'll be a horror film.
Jacque Fresco
The Venus Project presents a bold, new direction for humanity that entails nothing less than the total redesign of our culture.
Jacque Fresco
There are no bad people, there are people with insufficient information to make appropriate decisions.
Jacque Fresco
The system you're brought up under tries to make you like the people that succeeded in that system.
Jacque Fresco
Today we have access to highly advanced technologies. But our social and economic system has not kept up with our technological capabilities that could easily create a world of abundance, free of servitude and debt.
Jacque Fresco
We are not taught to be thinkers, but reflectors of our culture. Let's teach our children to be thinkers.
Jacque Fresco
You really don't want a job. What you want is access to those things you'd like to have.
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
You have to take in the whole picture, and ask, What is it you want? What kind of world do you want? So, I have drawings of different cities. Those cities have an end goal they're not just cities. The end goal of those cities is to make things relevant to people that they respond to. There's no other way.
Jacque Fresco
We accept, without sufficient consideration, a system that breeds inefficiencies and actually encourages the creation of shortages.
Jacque Fresco
We have more than enough resources in the world. The only thing we don't have is brains in Washington.
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
There's no such thing as designing the perfect utopian city. Everything is subject to change. There are no final frontiers.
