R. Buckminster Fuller Obvious Quotations

The explicable requires the inexplicable. Experience requires the nonexperienceable. The obvious requires the mystical.

Everything you've learned in school as "obvious" becomes less and less obvious as you begin to study the universe.

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.
