R. Buckminster Fuller

R. Buckminster Fuller
Most of my advances were by mistake. You uncover what is when you get rid of what isn't.
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
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.
