An Entire Planet for a Tomb

“We say of Muad’dib that he has gone on a journey into that land where we walk without footprints.”

Chapter heading for Dune: Messiah depicting Paul as a blind Fremen, entering the desert to meet his fate. I think Dune: Messiah has some of the most beautiful and poetic language in the series.

“He is the fool saint,
the golden stranger living forever
On the edge of reason.
…Mysterious, lethal, an oracle without eyes,
Catspaw of prophecy, whose voice never dies!
…He strides through the long cavern of time,
scattering the fool self of his dream.”
