Our bodies stirred these waters briefly, danced with a certain intoxication before the love of life and self, dealt with a few strange ideas, then submitted to the instruments of Time. What can we say of this? I occurred. I am not...yet, I occurred."
"We can say that Muad'Dib learned rapidly because his first training was in how to learn. And the first lesson of all was the basic trust that he could learn."
"And the question of Wester religion, Flattery said, "is: What lies beyond death? But the question of the Zen master is: What lies beyond waking?"
"I have said: "Blow out the lamp! Day is here!" And you keep saying: "Give me a lamp so I can find the day."
