Quotes 

• Gurney Halleck : My lord, the great houses have answered. They refuse to honor your ascendency.

  Stilgar : We await your orders, Lisan al-Gaib.

  Paul Atreides : Lead them to paradise.

• Paul Atreides : I am Paul Muad'Dib Atreides, Duke of Arrakis. The Hand of God be my witness, I am the Voice from the Outer World! I will lead you to PARADISE!

• Reverend Mother Mohiam : Consider what you are about to do, Paul Atreides...

  Paul Atreides : [using the Voice]  SILENCE!

  [the force knocks the Reverend Mother into other Bene Gesserit] 

  Reverend Mother Mohiam : [fearfully]  Abomination.

• Paul Atreides : The visions are clear now. I see possible futures, all at once. Our enemies are all around us, and in so many futures they prevail. But I do see a way, there is a narrow way through.

• Paul Atreides : There is no one in this room who can stand against me. Your mothers warned you about my coming. Fear the moment. But you think you could have a chance. But you are afraid, what if I could be the One? This could be the moment you've been praying for, all your life.

• Stilgar : Take my life Usul, it is the only way...

  Paul Atreides : I'm pointing the way!

• Paul Atreides : May thy knife chip and shatter.

  Feyd-Rautha : May *thy* knife chip and shatter.

• Stilgar : Madhi, what do you foresee for us?

  Paul Atreides : Green Paradise.

  Stilgar : Lisan al-Gaib, show us the way!

• Paul Atreides : If I go south, all my visions lead to horror. Millions of people dead because of me.

  Gurney Halleck : Because you lose control?

  Paul Atreides : Because I gain it.

• Paul Atreides : I recognized your footsteps, old man.

• Paul Atreides : I could fire the House atomics at the main spice fields. He who can destroy the thing has the real control of it.

• Paul Atreides : Grandfather... you die like an animal.

• Paul Atreides : [to Chani]  I will love you for as long as I breathe.

• Paul Atreides : [Asked to choose a war name]  How do you call the uh, little desert mouse again?

  Chani : Muad'Dib!

  [Shishakli and others repeat the name. Some of the Fremen chuckle. Stilgar is indignant] 

  Stilgar : Muad'Dib! No no no, shh, shh! Muad'Dib is wise in the ways of the desert. Muad'Dib makes his own water. The constellation in the stars that points to the north, which we also call Muad'Dib, shows us the way. Muad'Dib... that is a powerful name!

• [Not actually prescient of the man's past, only of the correct words to say to manipulate him onto his path] 

  Paul Atreides : Your grandmother died nine moons ago. She was blind in one eye. A rock struck her in the face while she was crossing through the Belt. She was twelve years old when this happened. In those days, Arrakis was known by a Fremen name... Dune.

  [the man's eyes say that it's all true. He falls to his knees] 

  Huge Fighter : *Lisan Al-Gaib!*

• Paul Atreides : Look how your Bene Gesserit propaganda has taken root. Some of them already think I'm their messiah. Others... false prophet. I must sway the non-believers. If we get enough of them to support us, we can halt spice production. It's the only way I can get to the Emperor.

  Jessica : Your father didn't believe in revenge.

  Paul Atreides : Yeah well, I do.

• Chani : Where you're from, does water really fall from the sky?

  Paul Atreides : Oh, yes. Sometimes it rains for weeks on Caladan. Where you see sand here, imagine water. Our castle stands on cliffs high above the sea. If you dive in, you can't reach the bottom.

  Chani : You *dive* in?

  Paul Atreides : Yes. It's called swimming.

  Chani : I don't believe you, Usul.

• Paul Atreides : [to Alia]  Sister. Father is dead. Shouldn't you go back to the stars, be with him? I'm afraid I won't have enough time to fix things before you're coming. This world is beyond cruelty.

• Paul Atreides : It's not a prophecy. It's a story! One that you keep telling over and over, but it's not their story, it's yours. They deserve to be led by one of their own. What your people did to this planet... is heartbreaking.

  Jessica : We gave these people something to hope for!

  Paul Atreides : *That's not hope!*

• Paul Atreides : I'm happy to finally meet you... cousin.

  Feyd-Rautha : Cousin? Is that right? Well, you won't be the first family member I've killed.

• Paul Atreides : You know what I think of all that.

  Stilgar : I don't care what you believe! I believe!

• Paul Atreides : [to Fedaykin, in Chakobsa]  Bring the prisoners to the residency. Kill the Sardaukar. Give the baron's body to the desert.

• Paul Atreides : You think I'm stupid enough to rob myself of the best of us?

  [In Chakobsa] 

  Paul Atreides : Do you smash a blade before battle?

• Paul Atreides : Father, I've found my way.

• Paul Atreides : [to Chani]  I would very much like to be equal to you.

• Paul Atreides : Stand, or choose your champion.

• Paul Atreides : I will do what must be done.

• Paul Atreides : You know it's funny, in all the film books I've read, the anthropologists say that to properly sand walk you actually have to...

  [Chani glares at him] 

  Paul Atreides : ... Never mind.

• [after learning that Jessica is the Baron's daughter] 

  Paul Atreides : We're Harkonnens... so that's how we'll survive. By being Harkonnens.

• Stilgar : Be simple. Be direct. Nothing fancy.

  Paul Atreides : I understand. Nothing fancy!

  Stilgar : I'm serious, nothing fancy, or you will shame my teachings! Shai-hulud decides today if you become a Fremen... or if you die.

• Chani : You fought well... when you woke up.

  Paul Atreides : I wasn't sleeping.
