The end move in politics is always to pick up a gun.
R. Buckminster Fuller
We were deliberately designed to learn only by trial and error. We're brought up, unfortunately, to think that nobody should make mistakes. Most children get de-geniused by the love and fear of their parents - that they might make a mistake. But all my advances were made by mistakes. You uncover what is when you get rid of what isn't.
R. Buckminster Fuller
Ideas are easy to come by reduction to practice is an arduous but inspirationally rewarding matter.
R. Buckminster Fuller
A pattern has an integrity independent of the medium by virtue of which you have received the information that it exists.
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

R. Buckminster Fuller

R. Buckminster Fuller
You can't change anything by fighting or resisting it. You change something by making it obsolete through superior methods.
R. Buckminster Fuller
I am convinced all of humanity is born with more gifts than we know. Most are born geniuses and just get de-geniused rapidly.
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
Of course, our failures are a consequence of many factors, but possibly one of the most important is the fact that society operates on the theory that specialization is the key to success, not realizing that specialization precludes comprehensive thinking.
R. Buckminster Fuller
All children are born geniuses, and we spend the first six years of their lives degeniusing them.
R. Buckminster Fuller
Relativity is inherently convergent, though convergent toward a plurality of centers of abstract truths.
R. Buckminster Fuller
Whether we are able to be a complete success or failure is in such critical balance that every smallest human test of integrity every smallest moment-to-moment decision tips the scales affirmatively or negatively.
R. Buckminster Fuller
Tension is the great integrity.
R. Buckminster Fuller
Pollution is merely a resource that isn't being used properly.
R. Buckminster Fuller
...doing more with less.
R. Buckminster Fuller
It is now highly feasible to take care of everybody on Earth at a 'higher standard of living than any have ever known.' It no longer has to be you or me. Selfishness is unnecessary and henceforth unrationalizable as mandated by survival.
R. Buckminster Fuller
