Frank Herbert
Guilt starts as a feeling of failure.
Frank Herbert
You do not take from this universe. It grants you what it will.
Frank Herbert

Frank Herbert

Frank Herbert
If you ask Should we be in space? you ask a nonsense question. We are in space. We will be in space.
Frank Herbert
Think on it, Chani: the princess will have the name, yet she'll live as less than a concubine - never to know a moment of tenderness from the man to whom she's bound. While we, Chani, we who carry the name of concubine - history will call us wives.
Frank Herbert
Justice required resort to law and that could be a fickle mistress, subject always to the whims and prejudices of those who administered the laws.
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
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
My lungs taste the air of Time,Blown past falling sands.
Frank Herbert
We are generalists. You can't draw neat lines around planet-wide problems. Planetology is a cut-and-fit science.
Frank Herbert
