R. Buckminster Fuller
The most important thing about Spaceship Earth - an instruction book didn't come with it.
R. Buckminster Fuller
In order for a world-around democracy to prosper, world society must learn how to prosper.
R. Buckminster Fuller
Everything you've learned in school as obvious becomes less and less obvious as you begin to study the universe. For example, there are no solids in the universe. There's not even a suggestion of a solid. There are no absolute continuums. There are no surfaces. There are no straight lines.
R. Buckminster Fuller

R. Buckminster Fuller
Specialization is in fact only a fancy form of slavery wherein the 'expert' is fooled into accepting a slavery by making him feel that he in turn is a socially and culturally preferred-ergo, highly secure-lifelong position.
R. Buckminster Fuller

R. Buckminster Fuller
God is a verb, not a noun.
R. Buckminster Fuller
The vector equilibrium is the true zero reference of the energetic mathematics.

R. Buckminster Fuller
It is new design by architects versus world revolution by political leadership.
R. Buckminster Fuller
When I'm working on a problem, I never think about beauty. I think only how to solve the problem.
R. Buckminster Fuller
You can't better the world by simply talking to it. Philosophy to be effective must be mechanically applied.
R. Buckminster Fuller
People never leave a sinking ship until they see the lights of another ship approaching.
R. Buckminster Fuller
By the time you are 88 years old, you have consumed 300 tons of food, air and water.
R. Buckminster Fuller
Tombs are the clothes of the dead and a grave is a plain suit while an expensive monument is one with embroidery.
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
Ignorance and greed are part of the evolutionary process, which is just to say that mistakes are part of learning. There is nothing bad about behaviors or perceptions that do not work they simply have to be given up and replaced by behaviors or perceptions that do work.
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
Humanity is acquiring all the right technology for all the wrong reasons.
