R. Buckminster FullerHowever, if we leave the industrial machinery and their energy-distribution networks and leave them also all the people who have routine jobs operating the industrial machinery and distributing its products, and we take away from all the industrial countries all their ideologies and all the politicians and political machine workers, people would keep right on eating. Possibly getting on a little better than before.
R. Buckminster FullerWhen I am working on a problem, I never think about beauty but when I have finished, if the solution is not beautiful, I know it is wrong.
