“People where you live," the little prince said, "grow five thousand roses in one garden... yet they don't find what they're looking for...

And the little prince added, "But eyes are blind. You have to look with the heart.”

“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.

― Frank Herbert, Dune
