Everyone has the perfect gift to give the world-and if each of us is freed up to give our unique gift, the world will be in total harmony.
R. Buckminster Fuller

R. Buckminster Fuller
As long as one human being is hungry, the entire human race is hungry.
R. Buckminster Fuller

R. Buckminster Fuller
God, to me, it seems, is a verb not a noun, proper or improper.
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
None of the world's problems will have a solution until the world's individuals become thoroughly self-educated.
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
Universe is synergetic. Life is synergetic.
