Frank Patrick Herbert
“His father had once said: “There’s unknown all around at every moment. That’s where you seek knowledge.”
Frank Herbert, Children of Dune

Serge Joncour
“... Pour un auteur comme mon mari, un être épuisé par la lecture de tant d'ouvrages, rongé par la rédaction des siens propres, au-delà des honneurs et des satisfecit, se repose immanquablement et à cycle régulier la même question, celle qui nourrit le doute en plus de fonder le désespoir, celle qui par printemps entiers l' accable, le foudroie et l'étreint plus avidement encore qu'un vide ontologique, aussi lancinante et sourde qu'un constat sur le rien, prémices certaines d'apostasie ou de crises autogènes...”
Serge Joncour, Kenavo

Frank Patrick Herbert
“It was Rhajia, the movement of Infinity as expressed by Life, the latent cup of total immersion in mentat awareness which lay in wait for every mentat. It threw his awareness onto the universe like a net, falling, defining the shapes within it.”
Frank Herbert, Children of Dune

Frank Patrick Herbert
“Thoughts with fuzzy edges feathered away into darkness—unknown. Infinite systems! A mentat could not function without realizing he worked in infinite systems. Fixed knowledge could not surround the infinite. Everywhere could not be brought into finite perspective. Instead, he must become the infinite—momentarily.”
Frank Herbert, Dune Messiah

Frank Patrick Herbert
“Church and State, scientific reason and faith, the individual and his community, even progress and tradition—all of these can be reconciled in the teachings of Muad’Dib. He taught us that there exist no intransigent opposites except in the beliefs of men. Anyone can rip aside the veil of Time. You can discover the future in the past or in your own imagination. Doing this, you win back your consciousness in your inner being. You know then that the universe is a coherent whole and you are indivisible from it.”
Frank Herbert, Children of Dune
