Frank Herbert
“Jessica leaned beside him, thankful for the moment of rest. She heard Paul pulling at his stillsuit tube, sipped her own reclaimed water. It tasted brackish, and she remembered the waters of Caladan—a tall fountain enclosing a curve of sky, such a richness of moisture that it hadn't been noticed for itself... only for its shape, or its reflection, or its sound as she stopped beside it.

To stop , she thought. To rest... truly rest .

It occurred to her that mercy was the ability to stop, if only for a moment. There was no mercy where there could be no stopping.”
Frank Herbert, Dune

Frank Herbert
“Growth is limited by that necessity which is present in the least amount. And, naturally, the least favorable condition controls the growth rate."

“Far down the corridor, an image-voice screamed: "They denied us the Hajj!"

Jessica saw the slave cribs on Bela Tegeuse down that inner corridor, saw the weeding out and the selecting that spread men to Rossak and Harmonthep. Scenes of brutal ferocity opened to her like the petals of a terrible flower. And she saw the thread of the past carried by Sayyadina after Sayyadina—first by word of mouth, hidden in the sand chanteys, then refined through their own Reverend Mothers with the discovery of the poison drug on Rossak...and now developed to subtle strength on Arrakis in the discovery of the Water of Life.

Far down the inner corridor, another voice screamed: "Never to forgive! Never to forget!”
Frank Herbert, Dune

Frank Herbert, Heretics of Dune

Frank Herbert
“A volte coloro che erano supremamente ricchi diventavano depravati. Ciò derivava dalla loro convinzione che il denaro (il potere) potesse comperare tutto e tutti. E perché non avrebbero dovuto crederlo? Lo vedevano accadere tutti i giorni. Era facile credere negli assoluti.”
Frank Herbert, Heretics of Dune

“I prefer the cynical view,� Paul said, testing. “You obviously are trained in all the lying tricks of statecraft, the double meanings and the power words. Language is nothing more than a weapon to you and, thus, you test my armor.�
“The cynical view,� Edric said, a smile stretching his mouth. “And rulers are notoriously cynical where religions are concerned. Religion, too, is a weapon. What manner of weapon is religion when it becomes the government?”

“Başlangıçlar! Hayat bunlardan ibaret işte! Yaşam var olduğu sürece, her son bir başlangıçtır. İnsanlığın sürdürülmesi sırasında vuku bulan hiçbir ölümün tam bir başarısızlık olmaması bu yüzdendir. Doğumun bizi bu kadar etkilemesi bu yüzdendir. En trajik ölümün gencin ölümü olması bu yüzdendir.”
