R. Buckminster Fuller Environment Quotations

Don't change the man. Change his environment.

The individual can take initiatives without anybody's permission. Only individuals can think. Only the individual disregards his fears and commits himself exclusively to reforming the human environment.

I must reorganize the environment of man by which then greater numbers of men can prosper.

All of humanity now has the option to "make it" successfully and sustainably, by virtue of our having minds, discovering principles and being able to employ these principles to do more with less.

The earth is like a spaceship that didn't come with an operating manual.

Pollution is nothing but the resources we are not harvesting. We allow them to disperse because we've been ignorant of their value.

If you change the environment, you change the people.

Universe to each must be All that is, including me. Environment in turn must be All that is, excepting me.
