“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.”
― Frank Herbert, Dune

“Grief is like a drunken house guest, always coming back for one more goodbye hug.”
― Stephen King, Bag of Bones

“Extremist individuals live inside every single group on the planet. Devout followers from Christian to Muslim who kill in the name of God, down to people who perpetuate a cycle of abuse from parent to child. And do you know at what point they're labeled terrorists?"
Martini said. "When the government--"
"When the news reports it." . . .”
― Mur Lafferty, Six Wakes
