More quotes by R. Buckminster Fuller
Education by choice, with its marvelous motivating psychology of desire for truth, will make life ever cleaner and happier, more rhythmical and artistic.
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
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
There is something patently insane about all the typewriters sleeping with all the beautiful plumbing in the beautiful office buildings -and all the people sleeping in the slums.
R. Buckminster Fuller

R. Buckminster Fuller
I have great hope for tomorrow. My hope lies in three things-truth, youth, and love.
R. Buckminster Fuller

R. Buckminster Fuller
The earth is like a spaceship that didn't come with an operating manual.
R. Buckminster Fuller
Out of my general world-pattern-trend studies there now comes strong evidence that nothing is going to be quite so surprising and abrupt in the future history of man as the forward evolution in the educational process.
R. Buckminster Fuller
By the time you are 88 years old, you have consumed 300 tons of food, air and water.
R. Buckminster Fuller
Observation of my life to date shows that the larger the number for whom I work, the more positively effective I become. Thus, it is obvious that if I work always and only for all humanity, I will be optimally effective.
R. Buckminster Fuller
Don't change the man. Change his environment.
R. Buckminster Fuller
The most important thing about Spaceship Earth - an instruction book didn't come with it.
R. Buckminster Fuller
The purpose of our lives is to add value to the people of this generation and those that follow.
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
Consisting mostly of recirculating scrapped metals, 80% of all the metals that have ever been mined are still at work.
R. Buckminster Fuller
In order for a world-around democracy to prosper, world society must learn how to prosper.
R. Buckminster Fuller
The wave is not the water. The water merely told us about the wave moving by.
R. Buckminster Fuller
Human beings were given a left foot and a right foot to make a mistake first to the left, then to the right, left again and repeat.
