More quotes by R. Buckminster Fuller
If you are the master be sometimes blind, if you are the servant be sometimes deaf.
R. Buckminster Fuller

R. Buckminster Fuller

R. Buckminster Fuller
...doing more with less.
R. Buckminster Fuller
Out of my general world-pattern-trend studies there now comes strong evidence that nothing is going to be quite so surprising and abrupt in the future history of man as the forward evolution in the educational process.
R. Buckminster Fuller
Dolphins may well be carrying information as well as functions critical to the regeneration of life upon our planet.
R. Buckminster Fuller
You can't change the way people think, all you can do is give them a tool, the use of which will change their thinking.
R. Buckminster Fuller
The wave is not the water. The water merely told us about the wave moving by.
R. Buckminster Fuller
Humanity is acquiring all the right technology for all the wrong reasons.
R. Buckminster Fuller
Faith is much better than belief. Belief is when someone else does the thinking.
