Frank Herbert Quotes

There is probably no more terrible instance of enlightenment than the one in which you discover your father is a man – with human flesh. ~ Dune by Frank Herbert Think you of the fact that a deaf person cannot hear. Then, what deafness may we not all possess? What senses do we lack that we cannot see and cannot hear another world all around us? ~ Dune by Frank Herbert If wishes were fishes, we'd all cast nets. ~ Dune by Frank Herbert The mystery of life isn't a problem to solve, but a reality to experience. ~ Dune by Frank Herbert Hope clouds observation. ~ Dune by Frank Herbert "You've heard of animals chewing off a leg to escape a trap? There's an animal kind of trick. A human would remain in the trap, endure the pain, feigning death that he might kill the trapper and remove a threat to his kind." ~ Dune by Frank Herbert I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain. ~ Dune by Frank Herbert
