R. Buckminster Fuller
“All the present bureaucracies of political governments, great religious organizations, and all big businesses find that physical success for all humanity would be devastating to the perpetuation of their ongoing activities. This is because all of them are founded on the premise of ameliorating individual cases while generally exploiting on behalf of their respective political, religious, or business organizations the condition of no-where-nearly-enough-life-support-for-all and its resultant great human suffering and discontent.”
Richard Buckminster Fuller, Critical Path

“The point is that racism is the product of tribalism and ignorance and both are falling victim to communications and world-around literacy”

“Every time man makes a new experiment he always learns more. He cannot learn less.”
R. Buckminster Fuller, Operating Manual for Spaceship Earth

Oscar Wilde
“We Irish are too poetical to be poets; we are a nation of brilliant failures, but we are the greatest talkers since the Greeks.”
Oscar Wilde
