R. Buckminster Fuller
Relativity is inherently convergent, though convergent toward a plurality of centers of abstract truths.
R. Buckminster Fuller
There is an effective strategy open to architects. Whereas doctors deal with the interior organisms of man, architects deal with the exterior organisms of man. Architects might join with one another to carry on their work in laboratories as do doctors in anticipatory medicine.
R. Buckminster Fuller
We must start with scientific fundamentals, and that means with the data of experiments and not with assumed axioms predicated only upon the misleading nature of that which only superficially seems to be obvious. It is the consensus of great scientists that science is the attempt to set in order the facts of experience.
R. Buckminster Fuller
People never leave a sinking ship until they see the lights of another ship approaching.
R. Buckminster Fuller

R. Buckminster Fuller

R. Buckminster Fuller
The opposite of nature is impossible.
R. Buckminster Fuller
Seeing-is-believing is a blind spot in man's vision.
R. Buckminster Fuller
For at least 2,000,000 years men have been reproducing and multiplying on a little automated spaceship called earth.
R. Buckminster Fuller
All of humanity is in peril of extinction if each one of us does not dare, now and henceforth, always to tell only the truth, and all the truth, and to do so promptly - right now.
R. Buckminster Fuller
One can study a caterpillar forever and never be able to predict a butterfly.
R. Buckminster Fuller
If success or failure of this planet and of human beings depended on how I am and what I do... HOW WOULD I BE? WHAT WOULD I DO?
R. Buckminster Fuller
Wealth is a measure of a person's ability to survive so many days forward.
R. Buckminster Fuller
We as economic society are going to have to pay our whole population to go to school and pay it to stay at school.
R. Buckminster Fuller
We are most probably here for local information-gathering and local-Universe problem-solving in support of the integrity of eternally regenerative Universe.
R. Buckminster Fuller
I'm not trying to copy Nature, I'm trying to find the principles she's using.
R. Buckminster Fuller
If man chooses oblivion, he can go right on leaving his fate to his political leaders. If he chooses Utopia, he must initiate an enormous education program - immediately, if not sooner.
R. Buckminster Fuller
