DUNE : Litany Against Fear from the QuickStop
LITANY AGAINST FEAR
I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
Only I will remain.
- Frank Herbert, Dune - Bene Gesserit Litany Against Fear
hahaha… I was looking at my stuffs in the attic… I found my treasure
cove of books…all from my old high school books…notebooks full of
doodles and scribbles of my insane teenage lifestyle to my notes from
college, floppy disks, I even found my laptop that I used in college…
hahha… hoping to find something of particular value… but as tried to
boot it up… it won’t let me… batteries’ dead and leaked… for being
stored for a long time.. heheh..
I found my DUNE books… which is still kept in perfect condition… I
began reading it…now I want to be a Fedaykin… Paul-Muad’dib’s dreaded
Death Commandos… I wanna ride a sandworm, I wanna hold a crysknife, I
want to learn the “Wierding Way”…. hahaha

LEGENDS OF DUNE
The LEGENDS OF DUNE trilogy details the saga of the century-long
conflict, as well as the original breach that formed the deadly feud
between House Atreides and House Harkonnen. The story includes Tio
Holtzman’s development of foldspace and shield technology, the
establishment of the Imperium by House Corrino, and the Zensunni
Wanderers’ escape from slavery and their flight to the desert world of
Arrakis. Readers will also see the seeds of DUNE’s famous Great Schools
of the Mentats, the Bene Gesserit, the Suk Doctors, and the
Swordmasters.
- The Butlerian Jihad
- The Machine Crusade
- The Battle of Corrin
not to be rude… but I found this funny quote from everything2.com derived from the Litany of Fear
LITANY AGAINST BEER
I must drink beer.
Beer is the mind killer.
Beer is the little death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my beer.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me,
and when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
When the beer is gone, there will be nothing.
Only I will remain.
heheheheh… oh well… waiting for the new DUNE books…
