Quotes by Frank Herbert in Time One

[T]he human requires a background grid through which to see his universe ….

In such perfection, all things move toward death.

A beginning is the time for taking the most delicate care that the balances are correct.

[W]hat is before?

Ideas imbedded in a language require that particular language for expression.

It was the interpretations that mattered. Which was why a High Priest must be the final interpreter.

All comprehension is temporary.

We may not appear to dance together….

Looked at one way, the universe is Brownian movement, nothing predictable at the elemental level.

It is not the present which influences the future … but the future that forms the present.

But the universe would not turn backward.

This moment here is the only observable time and place for us in our universe.

There is in all things a pattern that is part of our universe. It has symmetry, elegance, and grace―those qualities you find always in that which the true artist captures.

Lady Jessica: You'll find reality to be quite a bit different than you thought.
