Perfect Society Quotes

• I have no notions of a perfect society, I don’t know what that means. I know we can do much better than what we’ve got, I’m no utopian, I’m not a humanist that would like to see everybody living in warmth and harmony: I know that if we don’t live that way, we’ll kill each other and destroy the Earth.

  Jacque Fresco

• Nearly all creators of Utopia have resembled the man who has toothache, and therefore thinks happiness consists in not having toothache. They wanted to produce a perfect society by an endless continuation of something that had only been valuable because it was temporary. The wider course would be to say that there are certain lines along which humanity must move, the grand strategy is mapped out, but detailed prophecy is not our business. Whoever tries to imagine perfection simply reveals his own emptiness.

• Los suecos son una sociedad civilizada y perfecta, al menos en apariencia. Hay una gran red de seguridad, una enorme clase media, educación y sanidad gratuitas. La gente es muy educada, espera su turno. No son demasiado ruidosos ni demasiado silenciosos, pero a veces es demasiado perfecto.

  Alexander Skarsgard

• Utopian fiction is really boring. I had to read a lot of it, and it's not that much fun. But they're fascinating to me as historical documents. Cabet [Icaria's founder and author of the utopian novel, Travels in Icaria], is writing in the 1830s, and his idea of the perfect society reveals a lot about his time. But his book is uniquely bad.

• Todas las sociedades se basan en normas para proteger a las mujeres embarazadas y a los niños pequeños. Todo lo demás es excedente, excrecencia, adorno, lujo o locura que puede -y debe- desecharse en caso de emergencia para preservar esta función primordial. Como la supervivencia racial es la única moral universal, no hay otra básica posible. Los intentos de formular una "sociedad perfecta" sobre cualquier otra base que no sea "¡Las mujeres y los niños primero!" no sólo son estúpidos, sino automáticamente genocidas. Sin embargo, los idealistas de ojos estrellados (todos ellos hombres) lo han intentado sin cesar, y sin duda seguirán intentándolo.
