Frank Herbert
“I know the evil of my ancestors because I am those people. The balance is delicate in the extreme. I know that few of you who read my words have ever thought about your ancestors this way. It has not occurred to you that your ancestors were survivors and that the survival itself sometimes involved savage decisions, a kind of wanton brutality which civilized humankind works very hard to suppress. What price will you pay for that suppression? Will you accept your own extinction?
-The Stolen Journals”
Frank Herbert, God Emperor of Dune

Frank Herbert
“Ambitions tend to Remain undisturbed by Realities.”
Frank Herbert, Children of Dune

Frank Herbert
“Can you collect chaos? Not collecting, that is the ultimate gathering. What can you gather without gathering yourself.”
Frank Herbert, Dune Messiah

Frank Herbert
“Abandon certainty! That's life's deepest command. That's what life's all about. We're a probe into the unknown, into the uncertain. Why can't you hear Muad'Dib? If certainty is knowing absolutely an absolute future, then that's only death disguised! Such a future becomes now!”
Frank Herbert, Children of Dune

Leonardo da Vinci
“To develop a complete mind: Study the science of art; Study the art of science. Learn how to see. Realize that everything connects to everything else.”
Leonardo da Vinci
