Whether humanity is to comprehensively prosper...depends entirely on the integrity of the human individuals and not on the political and economic systems.  The cosmic question has been asked: are humans worthwhile to universe invention?"

You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change things, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete.

The minute you begin to do what you want to do, it's a different kind of life.

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.

To make the world work for 100% of humanity in the shortest possible time through spontaneous cooperation without ecological offense or the disadvantage of anyone.

I live on Earth at present, and I don't know what I am. I know that I am not a category. I am not a thing - a noun. I seem to be a verb, an evolutionary process - an integral function of the universe.

If success or failure of this planet and of human beings depended on how I am and what I do...How would I be? What would I do?

We shall have to stop looking askance on trends in relation to sex merely as a reproductive capability, i.e. that it is normal to make babies. Society will have to change in its assessment of what the proclivities of humanity may be. Our viewpoints on homosexuality, for example, may have to be reconsidered and more wisely adjusted.

Technologically we now have four [seven!] billion billionaires on board Spaceship Earth who are entirely unaware of their good fortune.
