“There is in all things a pattern that is part of our universe. It has symmetry, elegance, and grace—those qualities you find always in that which the true artist captures. You can find it in the turning of the seasons, in the way sand trails along a ridge, in the branch clusters of the creosote bush or the pattern of its leaves. We try to copy these patterns in our lives and our society, seeking the rhythms, the dances, the forms that comfort. Yet, it is possible to see peril in the finding of ultimate perfection. It is clear that the ultimate pattern contains its own fixity. In such perfection, all things move toward death.”
― Frank Herbert, Dune

“Sad? Nonsense! Parting with friends is a sadness. A place is only a place.”
― Frank Herbert, Dune

“Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.”
― Frank Herbert, Dune
