181 " The spirit of Muad’Dib is more than words, more than the letter of the Law which arises in his name. Muad’Dib must always be that inner outrage against the complacently powerful, against the charlatans and the dogmatic fanatics. It is that inner outrage which must have its say because Muad’Dib taught us one thing above all others: that humans can endure only in a fraternity of social justice. "
― Frank Herbert , Children of Dune (Dune, #3)
182 " Because of the one-pointed Time awareness in which the conventional mind remains immersed, humans tend to think of everything in a sequential, word-oriented framework. This mental trap produces very short-term concepts of effectiveness and consequences, a condition of constant, unplanned response to crises. —LIET-KYNES THE ARRAKIS WORKBOOK "
183 " Найкраще приймати те що надходить, тоді, коли воно надходить. "
184 " Stuff that into your womb and give birth to it elsewhere! "
185 " It is wise to have decisions of great moment monitored by generalists. Experts and specialists lead you quickly into chaos. They are a source of useless nit-picking, the ferocious quibble over a comma. The mentat-generalist, on the other hand, should bring to decision-making a healthy common sense. He must not cut himself off from the broad sweep of what is happening in his universe. He must remain capable of saying: “There’s no real mystery about this at the moment. This is what we want now. It may prove wrong later, but we’ll correct that when we come to it. "
186 " A sophisticated human can become primitive. What this really means is that the human’s way of life changes. Old values change, become linked to the landscape with its plants and animals. This new existence requires a working knowledge of those multiplex and cross-linked events usually referred to as nature. It requires a measure of respect for the inertial power within such natural systems. When a human gains this working knowledge and respect, that is called “being primitive.” The converse, of course, is equally true: the primitive can become sophisticated, but not without accepting dreadful psychological damage. —THE LETO COMMENTARY "

190 " El universo está simplemente allí; esa es la única forma en que un Fedaykin puede imaginarlo y permanecer dueño de sus sentidos. El universo ni amenaza ni promete. Contiene cosas más allá de nuestro dominio: la caída de un meteoro, la erupción de una masa de especia, cosas que crecen y mueren. Esas son las realidades de este universo y deben afrontarse independientemente de lo que uno sienta por ellas. Uno no puede apartarlas de su lado. Se precipitarán contra uno a su silenciosa manera y entonces, solo entonces, uno comprenderá lo que significan «vida y muerte». Y al comprenderlo, uno se sentirá colmado de alegría. Muad'Dib a sus Fedaykin "
191 " The one-eyed view of our universe says you must not look far afield for problems. Such problems may never arrive. Instead, tend to the wolf within your fences. The packs ranging outside may not even exist. "
192 " Навіть любов не може захистити нас від небажаних фактів. "
193 " Рівновага - це те, що відрізняє людей від натовпу. "
194 " Коли ми намагаємося приховати наші найпотаємніші наміри, уся наша сутність видає нас. "
195 " To be sighted in the land of the blind carries its own perils. If you try to interpret what you see for the blind, you tend to forget that the blind possess an inherent movement conditioned by their blindness. They are like a monstrous machine moving along its own path. They have their own momentum, their own fixations. I fear the blind, Stil. I fear them. They can so easily crush anything in their path. "
196 " How seductive it is to live in peace, she thought. "
197 " Пихаті будують мури замку, за якими намагаються приховати свої сумніви та страхи. "
198 " Bene Gesserit Way, he opened his mind to Jacurutu, seeking to know nothing about it. Knowing was a barrier which prevented learning. "
