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.”
Frank Herbert, Dune

Jules Verne
“I believe cats to be spirits come to earth. A cat, I am sure, could walk on a cloud without coming through.”
Jules Verne

It comes from men," said Holly. "All other elil do what they have to do and Frith moves them as he moves us. They live on the earth and they need food. Men will never rest till they've spoiled the earth and destroyed the animals.”
Richard Adams, Watership Down

“Dying
Is an art, like everything else.
I do it exceptionally well.
I do it so it feels like hell.

I guess you could say I have a call.”
Sylvia Plath, Ariel

Edvard Munch
“From my rotting body, flowers shall grow and I am in them, and that is eternity.”
Edvard Munch
