More quotes by Frank Herbert

Frank Herbert
The most persistent principles in the universe are accident and error.
Frank Herbert

Frank Herbert
Try to hold on to youth and it mocks you while it sprints away.
Frank Herbert

Frank Herbert

Frank Herbert
It is said that there is a principle of conflict which originated with the single cell and has never deteriorated.
Frank Herbert
Life is a mask through which the universe expresses itself.
Frank Herbert
Emotions are the curse of logic.
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
You know it's love when you want to give joy and damn the consequences.
Frank Herbert
The scarce water of Dune is an exact analog of oil scarcity. CHOAM is OPEC.
Frank Herbert
If there is a difference between what is said and what is done, only a fool believes what was said.
Frank Herbert
the sleeper must awaken.
