More quotes by 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
Guilt starts as a feeling of failure.
Frank Herbert
Give me the judgment of balanced minds in preference to laws every time. Codes and manuals create patterned behavior. All patterned behavior tends to go unquestioned, gathering destructive momentum.
Frank Herbert
. . . is to attempt seeing Truth without knowing Falsehood. It is the attempt to see the Light without knowing Darkness. It cannot be.
Frank Herbert
If you want immortality, then deny form. Whatever has form has mortality. Beyond form is the formless, the immortal.
Frank Herbert
To see eternity was to be exposed to eternity's whims, oppressed by endless dimensions.
Frank Herbert
A human being can stand any amount of pain.
Frank Herbert
Words themselves were the ultimate barrier to revelation.
Frank Herbert
Education is no substitute for intelligence. That elusive quality is defined only in part by puzzle-solving ability. It is in the creation of new puzzles reflecting what your senses report that you round out the definitions.
Frank Herbert
Journalism is the entertainment business.
Frank Herbert
Radicals are only to be feared when you try to suppress them. You must demonstrate that you will use the best of what they offer.
Frank Herbert

Frank Herbert
There is no escape - we pay for the violence of our ancestors.
Frank Herbert
Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.
Frank Herbert
I live in an apocalyptic dream. My steps fit into it so precisely that I fear most of all I will grow bored reliving the thing so exactly.
Frank Herbert
Prisons are needed only to provide the illusion that courts and police are effective. They're a kind of job insurance.
Frank Herbert
The function of science fiction is not always to predict the future but sometimes to prevent it.
Frank Herbert
The scarce water of Dune is an exact analog of oil scarcity. CHOAM is OPEC.
Frank Herbert
To endure oneself may be the hardest task in the universe. You cannot hire a wise man or any other intellect to solve it for you. There's no writ of inquest or calling of witness to provide answers.
Frank Herbert
The real universe is always one step beyond logic.
Frank Herbert
