"Frank Herbert - Dune Genesis" - читать интересную книгу автора (Herbert Brian & Frank)

The flaw must lie in our methods of description, in languages, in social
networks of meaning, in moral structures, and in philosophies and religions-
all of which convey implicit limits where no limits exist. Paul Muad'Dib, after
all, says this time after time throughout Dune.

Do you want an absolute prediction? Then you want only today, and you
reject tomorrow. You are the ultimate conservative. You are trying to hold
back movement in an infinitely changing universe. The verb to be does make
idiots of us all.

Of course there are other themes and fugal interplays in Dune and
throughout the trilogy. Dune Messiah performs a classic inversion of the
theme. Children of Dune expands the number of themes interplaying. I
refuse, however, to provide further answers to this complex mixture. That
fits the pattern of the fugue. You find your own solutions. Don't look to me
as your leader.

Caution is indeed indicated, but not the terror that prevents all movement.
Hang loose. And when someone asks whether you're starting a new cult, do
what I do: Run like hell.
