Quotes include Fantasy author and Christian Apologist J R R Tolkien quote reveals that 'truth' is the substance of myth and legends. Henryk Sienkiewicz who compares philosophy to wise advice. Also, famous quote by Arthur Schopenhauer quotation exposes the process of how truth becomes truth.
Frank Herbert - Numerous quotes by Frank Herbert, Kevin Anderson, And Brian Herbert to be added in the future. I'm a huge fan of the Dune book series. And other books by these three authors. Ill Wind, co-authored by Kevin Anderson for one comes quickly to mind. The story line of Ill Wind eerily echoes dark warnings of caution to the not at all unrealistic consequences of a world disaster such as a huge oil soil. When the recent oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico first made headline news reports. This book was one of the first things I thought of. A disaster like that could happen changing our lives, changing our world in a wink of an eye.

I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.

I will face my fear...
And when it is gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear is gone there will be nothing.
Only I will remain.
-- Frank Herbert
The beginning of knowledge is the discovery of something we do not understand.
