More quotes by R. Buckminster Fuller

R. Buckminster Fuller
God is a verb, not a noun.
R. Buckminster Fuller
Everything we see is inside our own heads.
R. Buckminster Fuller
There are no solids. There are no things. There are only interfering and non-interfering patterns operative in pure principle, and principles are eternal.
R. Buckminster Fuller
Ideas are easy to come by reduction to practice is an arduous but inspirationally rewarding matter.
R. Buckminster Fuller

R. Buckminster Fuller
We will always have war until there is enough of every essential to support all lives everywhere around earth.
R. Buckminster Fuller

R. Buckminster Fuller

R. Buckminster Fuller

R. Buckminster Fuller
Each one of us has something to contribute. This really depends on each one doing their own thinking, but not following any kind of rule.
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
Windmills installed around the world converting their direct current into alternating current and feeding the electric energy into the world network can harvest the planet Earth's prime daily energy income source-the wind--and adequately supply all the world's energy needs
R. Buckminster Fuller
I just invent, then wait until man comes around to needing what I've invented.
R. Buckminster Fuller
It is not for me to change you. The question is, how can I be of service to you without diminishing your degrees of freedom?
R. Buckminster Fuller
Unity is plural and, at a minimum, is two.
R. Buckminster Fuller
... reform the environment and not man being absolutely confident that if you give man the right environment, he will behave favorably.
R. Buckminster Fuller
You either make sense or you make money.
R. Buckminster Fuller
Some of us are just less damaged than others.
R. Buckminster Fuller
