You can’t spend money, wealth, or energy. You can only spend time. "The only thing that's expendable is what we do with our time-all the rest is cumulative." —Buckminster Fuller The more I think about it, I’ve come to realize Bucky was right.

A few great minds sensed there was more to Buckminster Fuller’s work than meets the eye. "I've always felt that those dymaxion gadgets—cars, houses, maps, etc.—were only incidental to what you really are interested in. Could you tell me what your work is?" —Dr. Jonas Salk But they could not put their finger on it because they did not understand Bitcoin. Today, we have the necessary tools and technology (Bitcoin) to understand one of the greatest minds of the last century.

“Because debt is a constituent of traditional government, it will be increased to eventual absurdity.” —Buckminster Fuller

“Locking gold away in vaults is in just this way a destruction of a resource. Complicated rules of bookkeeping (not of physics) make it nearly impossible to get at it again. So gold grows scarce, and yet there are sensible uses for gold, the seventy-ninth element. Those bookkeeping customs intimidate us like natural laws. Yet we have only to change them (‘Forget the gold standard’).” —Buckminster Fuller (Reworded)

“This metallic characteristic of money is no longer a primarily essential part of the internal U.S. dollar. Not only is the industrial worker of America willing to interpolate his work stint into a paper dollar-an intrinsically worthless medium-but actually prefers it to a metallic dollar.” —Buckminster Fuller

“In the course of early trading, a metallic money was developed as a concentrate medium of exchange and a belief grew up as to its potentially direct value, which in due course was improperly termed "credit." Money, metalically was relatively the safest medium of temporary value maintenance, being almost non-corrosive and non-substitutable due to its rarity.” —Buckminster Fuller

"Bits break up finite wholes into finite parts." —Buckminster Fuller, 1975

“We are in for the greatest revolution in history. If it's to pull the top down and it's bloody, all lose. If it is a design-science revolution to elevate the bottom and all others as well to unprecedented new heights, all will live to dare spontaneously to speak and live and love the truth, strange though it often may seem.”

“From a future educational responsibility viewpoint, nothing is more challenging than the question of how we get the 99 percent to understand technology.”

"Our present accounting system is at the roots of the energy problems of today."
