mean thinking world
If you think we can’t change the world, It just means you're not one of those that will
cities world way
We live in a world where our social system is old, our language is old, the way we acquire goods and services is outdated, our cities are detrimental to our health, chaotic and a tremendous waste of resource, and most of all our politics and values no longer serve us.
thinking normal world
So, "normal" is really what society dictates as normal and if we're born in that world, we would see that as normal. But if you think about it for a second, is it really?
pride our-world air
Self-centeredness will bring on the destruction of our world. National pride separates people. All people need the same thing. When you really get down to it, you'll find that all people need good food, clean water, clean air, and a decent environment, meaning education as to how to relate to one another and to avoid conflict, how to accept the differences where different people draw different conclusions.
people heritage world
Our times demand the declaration of the world's resources as the common heritage of all people.
people world share
All the world's people should share all the world's resources.
inspirational wish world
It takes a different value system if you wish to change the world.
want world kind
We have to ask ourselves what kind of world we want to live in.
years agriculture world
Politics was good a hundred years ago. Today, politicians have no ability to solve any problems because they are not students of behavior. They are not students of agriculture, oceanography - they know nothing about the factors that operate the world.
jobs people world
It's hard to be decent in a money world. We want to shut down all repetitious jobs, automate it, free people.
years television world
All things change. The automobiles change every year. [Your] television set gets lighter and smaller and higher definition. All things in the scientific world change. But politicians do not change. They carry old values and they don't even know it.
brain world enough
We have more than enough resources in the world. The only thing we don't have is brains in Washington.
children world difficult
You have to tell your children about the world they live in, about the discrepancies, about the things that don't work… So you have to bring it up with a scientific orientation so they learn to ask questions, and learn how to say the most difficult thing in the world: 'I don't know'.
technology debt world
Today we have access to highly advanced technologies. But our social and economic system has not kept up with our technological capabilities that could easily create a world of abundance, free of servitude and debt.
