More quotes by Jacque Fresco
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.
Jacque Fresco
You don't need to get rid of religion you have to outgrow the need for it. In other words, instead of hoping for the good life, you make the good life.
Jacque Fresco
If there's a group like Amish people, that want to live their own lifestyle – they don't want to live in our city – they want to live out in the country, with their own projects. We’ll put up the buildings for them, design the buildings for them, design the food production systems for them – if they want us to. But we don’t control them.
Jacque Fresco
The government means industry, if you know what I mean.
Jacque Fresco
The intelligent use of science and technology are the tools with which to achieve a new direction.
Jacque Fresco
Let's teach our children to be thinkers.
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
The system you're brought up under tries to make you like the people that succeeded in that system.
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
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 are not taught to be thinkers, but reflectors of our culture. Let's teach our children to be thinkers.
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
You can never design the best city, but you can design the best city you know how to design at this time.
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
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
We can work out anything if we put our mind to it, study it, do hard work instead of finding simple answers
Jacque Fresco
There's no such thing as designing the perfect utopian city. Everything is subject to change. There are no final frontiers.
Jacque Fresco
Merely complaining without proposing an alternative offers nothing.
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
It's hard in a monetary system to trust people.
