R. Buckminster Fuller
I am deeply impressed with the designer of the universe I am confident I couldnt have done anywhere near such a good job.
R. Buckminster Fuller
You have to decide whether you want to make money or make sense, because the two are mutually exclusive.
R. Buckminster Fuller
It is new design by architects versus world revolution by political leadership.
R. Buckminster Fuller
... reform the environment and not man being absolutely confident that if you give man the right environment, he will behave favorably.
