“Most civilisation is based on cowardice. It's so easy to civilize by teaching cowardice. You water down the standards which would lead to bravery. You restrain the will. You regulate the appetites. You fence in the horizons. You make a law for every movement. You deny the existence of chaos. You teach even the children to breathe slowly. You tame.”
― Frank Herbert, God Emperor of Dune

“Caution is the path to mediocrity. Gliding, passionless mediocrity is all that most people think they can achieve.”
― Frank Herbert, God Emperor of Dune

“When I need to identify rebels, I look for men with principles”
― Frank Herbert, God Emperor of Dune
