More quotes by Frank Herbert
The ferocity we show our foes must be tempered by the lesson we hope to teach.
Frank Herbert
Time is a measure of space, just as a range-finder is a measure of space, but measuring locks us into the place we measure.
Frank Herbert
Whether a thought is spoken or not it is a real thing and has powers of reality.
Frank Herbert
When I am weaker than you, I ask you for freedom because that is according to your principles when I am stronger than you, I take away your freedom because that is according to my principles.
Frank Herbert
When law and duty are one, united by religion, you never become fully conscious, fully aware of yourself. You are always a little less than an individual.
Frank Herbert
Often I must speak otherwise than I think. This is called diplomacy.
Frank Herbert
Words are such gross machinery, so primitive and ambiguous.
Frank Herbert
Seek freedom and become captive of your desires. Seek discipline and find your liberty.
Frank Herbert
Any road followed precisely to its end leads precisely nowhere. Climb the mountain just a little bit to test it's a mountain. From the top of the mountain, you cannot see the mountain.
Frank Herbert
Religions often partake of the myth of progress that shields us from the terrors of an uncertain future.
Frank Herbert
Politics: the art of appearing candid and completely open while concealing as much as possible.
Frank Herbert
Guilt starts as a feeling of failure.
Frank Herbert
You don't write for success. That takes part of your attention away from the writing. If you're really doing it, that's all you're doing: writing.
Frank Herbert
A creature who has spent his life creating one particular representation of his selfdom will die rather than become the antithesis of that representation
Frank Herbert
His voice was low, charged with unspeakable adjectives.
Frank Herbert
Confine yourself to observing and you always miss the point of your own life.
Frank Herbert
We never get far from wealth and all of its masks when we deal with power.
Frank Herbert
It is said that there is a principle of conflict which originated with the single cell and has never deteriorated.
Frank Herbert
The flesh surrenders itself. Eternity takes back its own. Our bodies stirred these waters briefly, danced with a certain intoxication before the love of life and self, dealt with a few strange ideas, then submitted to the instruments of Time. What can we say of this? I occurred. I am not...yet, I occurred.
Frank Herbert
Here lies a toppled god. His fall was not a small one. We did but build his pedestal, A narrow and a tall one.
Frank Herbert
