Frank Herbert Real Quotations

The real universe is always one step beyond logic.

What you of the CHOAM directorate seem unable to understand is that you seldom find real loyalties in commerce ... Men must want to do things of their own innermost drives. People, not commercial organisations or chains of command, are what make great civilizations work, every civilization depends upon the quality of the individuals it produces. If you overorganize humans, over-legalize them, suppress their urge to greatness - they cannot work and their civilization collapses.

Show me a completely smooth operation and I'll show you someone who's covering mistakes. Real boats rock.

There is no real ending. It’s just the place where you stop the story.
