More quotes by R. Buckminster Fuller
Quite clearly, our task is predominantly metaphysical, for it is how to get all of humanity to educate itself swiftly enough to generate spontaneous social behaviors that will avoid extinction.
R. Buckminster Fuller
Love is metaphysical gravity.
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
If we design the environment properly It will permit both child and adult to develop safely And to behave logically.
R. Buckminster Fuller
Truth is cosmically total: synergetic. Verities are generalized principles stated in semimetaphorical terms. Verities are differentiable. But love is omniembracing, omnicoherent, and omni-inclusive, with no exceptions. Love, like synergetics, is nondifferentiable, i.e., is integral.
R. Buckminster Fuller
I am a passenger on the spaceship Earth.
R. Buckminster Fuller
Humanity is now experiencing history's most difficult evolutionary transformation.
R. Buckminster Fuller
In order for a world-around democracy to prosper, world society must learn how to prosper.
R. Buckminster Fuller
Initiative can neither be created nor delegated. It can only spring from the self-determining individual, who decides that the wisdom of others is not always better than his own.
R. Buckminster Fuller
One can study a caterpillar forever and never be able to predict a butterfly.
R. Buckminster Fuller
Pollution is merely a resource that isn't being used properly.
R. Buckminster Fuller
The question of integrity will get finer and finer and more delicate and more beautiful.
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
Nature does have manure and she does have roots as well as blossoms, and you can't hate the manure and blame the roots for not being blossoms.
R. Buckminster Fuller
Are you spontaneously enthusiastic about everyone having everything you can have?
R. Buckminster Fuller
All children are born geniuses 9,999 out of every 10,000 are swiftly, inadvertently degeniusized by grownups.
R. Buckminster Fuller
The most important thing about Spaceship Earth - an instruction book didn't come with it.
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
Our little Spaceship Earth is only eight thousand miles in diameter, which is almost a negligible dimension in the great vastness of space.
R. Buckminster Fuller
If you are the master be sometimes blind, if you are the servant be sometimes deaf.
R. Buckminster Fuller
