Dune - Frank Herbert

Dune - Frank Herbert Anything bout and related to Frank Herbert and Dune.

"Most discipline is hidden discipline, designed not to liberate but to limit. Do not ask Why? Be cautious with How? Why? leads inexorably to paradox. How? traps you in a universe of cause and effect. Both deny the infinite."

The Apocrypha of Arrakis

Heretics of Dune - Frank Herbert

"There are problems in this universe for which there are no answers. Nothing. Nothing can be done."

Paul Muad’dib

Dune Messiah - Frank Herbert

"Muad’Dib learned rapidly because his first training was in how to learn. And the first lesson of all was the basic trust that he could learn. It’s shocking to find how many people do not believe they can learn, and how many more believe learning to be difficult. Muad’Dib knew that every experience carries its lesson."

from The Humanity of Muad’Dib by the Princess Irulan

Dune - Frank Herbert 

"Once men turned their thinking over to machines in the hope that this would set them free. But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them."

There is in all things a pattern that is part of our universe. It has symmetry, elegance, and grace-those qualities you find always in that which the true artist captures. You can find it in the turning of the seasons, in the way sand trails along a ridge, in he branch clusters of the creosote bush or the pattern of it’s leaves. We try to copy these patterns in our lives and our society, seeking the rhythms, the dances, the forms that comfort. Yet, it is possible to see peril in the finding of ultimate perfection. It is. It is clear that the ultimate pattern contains its own fixity. In such perfection, all things move toward death.
