More quotes by Frank Herbert
But it's well known that repression makes a religion flourish.
Frank Herbert
If there is a difference between what is said and what is done, only a fool believes what was said.
Frank Herbert
Truth suffers from too much analysis.
Frank Herbert
The surest way to keep a secret is to make people believe they already know the answer.
Frank Herbert
There's hope left in these dusty chords. There's a song left in our rusty hearts. We are torn and frayed but love remains.
Frank Herbert
The concept of progress acts as a protective mechanism to shield us from the terrors of the future.
Frank Herbert
We never get far from wealth and all of its masks when we deal with power.
Frank Herbert
If you want immortality, then deny form. Whatever has form has mortality. Beyond form is the formless, the immortal.
Frank Herbert
Beware of the truth, gentle Sister. Although much sought after, truth can be dangerous to the seeker. Myths and reassuring lies are much easier to find and believe. If you find a truth, even a temporary one, it can demand that you make painful changes. Conceal your truths within words. Natural ambiguity will protect you then.
Frank Herbert
The scarce water of Dune is an exact analog of oil scarcity. CHOAM is OPEC.
Frank Herbert
Peace for any prolonged period of time is impossible. Humans have a natural thirst for chaos and war is the most readily available form of chaos.
Frank Herbert
Power attracts the corruptible. Suspect all who seek it ... We should grant power over our affairs only to those who are reluctant to hold it and then only under conditions that increase that reluctance.
Frank Herbert
The undeserving maintain power by promoting hysteria.
Frank Herbert
Words are such gross machinery, so primitive and ambiguous.
Frank Herbert
If you need something to worship, then worship life - all life, every last crawling bit of it! We're all in this beauty together!
Frank Herbert
Silence is often the best thing to say.
Frank Herbert
Good subjects must feel guilty. The guilt begins as a feeling of failure. The good autocrat provides many opportunities for failure in the populace.
Frank Herbert
For now is my grief heavier than the sands of the seas, she thought. This world has emptied me of all but the oldest purpose: tomorrow's life.
Frank Herbert
Power attracts the corruptible. Suspect any who seek it.
Frank Herbert
Revenge is for children and the emotionally retarded.
Frank Herbert
