| Decided to throw this in books instead of friendly chat. Quote from a book. Read it many many times so far, and each time I get a stronger impression that Frank Herbert (Dune series) was onto something far greater than just writing about sandy Sci-Fi. Once I really started getting into the underlying grip (wrong word) of the quote, it all started to make sense, and a serious  commenced. " Most discipline is hidden discipline, designed not to liberate but to limit. Do not ask Why? Be cautious with How? Why? leads inexorably to paradox. How? traps you in a universe of cause and effect. Both deny the infinite. --The Apocrypha of Arrakis" from Frank Herbert's 'Heretics of Dune' | |
