R. Buckminster Fuller
We must do away with the absolutely specious notion that everybody has to earn a living.
R. Buckminster Fuller
Geniuses are just people who had good mothers.
R. Buckminster Fuller
Dolphins may well be carrying information as well as functions critical to the regeneration of life upon our planet.
