- "Do you think the Mahdi is that stupid? There isn't a man among you who could stand against me in single combat, Stilgar included. Must I prove it by calling out the Naib of every Sietch on the planet? Must I cripple myself by killing our strongest and wisest leaders, just for the sake of some mindless ritual? You say I am the Mah'Di... I say I am your Duke! And it's time now to wipe Arrakkis clean of the awful Harkonnen stench! Time to drive their name into the depths of Hell so that we may reclaim the planet and create a paradise together!"
- ―Paul Atreides
- "Who is it that calls for Muad'Dib?! Muad'Dib's words are the wind! They vanish... like water on the sand! You want Muad'Dib's words?! I'll give you Muad'Dib's words! I'll rub your faces in them!! I am the voice from the wilderness... and I bring you a warning. The water we spread upon the desert has become blood. Blood... upon the land which was once clean and pure! We have provoked the desert... forsaken its ways. We have succumbed to the mindless ritual and seductive ceremony. Placed faith in those who crush dissent... enrich themselves with power... commit atrocity... all in the name of righteousness! All in the name... of Muad'Dib! We have fouled the nest... and it is killing us! But I have seen another path... a golden path! The path Muad'Dib would not take. I have stood upon the sand... and I have seen a beast rise up! And upon the head of that beast... is the name of salvation! Come to spill water upon the sand. Come to lead us back... to a dry and thirsty land. Only one blasphemy remains. And that blasphemy... is ALIA!! Forgive me... sister."
- ―The Preacher at Arrakeen[src]
