Talk:Azhar Book

All Proofs
This quote seems to be frequently misattributed to House Corrino. It "first" appears in Children of Dune (page 150 in my Ace paperback printing), and is linked there with only "[the Bene Gesserit's] own manuals". I haven't read House Corrino, so I'm not saying the reference is spurious, but is probably just a(nother) retcon in that book / series. Dfrauzel 07:59, 26 September 2007 (UTC)


 * I'm not sure what you mean about misattribution, but I believe you're referring to this CoD quote:
 * "The members of the Bene Gesserit delegation had wanted to know if she required proofs of their allegations. She'd given them an angry answer out of their own manuals: 'All proofs inevitably lead to propositions which have no proof! All things are known because we want to believe in them.'"
 * To me, these "manuals" may or may not be the Azhar book itself, so it's presumptuous to include the quote. --TAnthony 12:33, 26 September 2007 (UTC)


 * For what it's worth, the Dune Encyclopedia describes the Azhar Book as an open-ended multivolume collection of works and miscellany filling 'several rooms', and suggests it is basically the sole source for their theological training - so 'manuals' is a perfectly adequate description of the Azhar Book. --Gwern (contribs) 01:32 8 October 2007 (GMT)


 * Right, you can call the Azhar "manuals" but we can't assume that the Azhar was what Frank was referring to in the quote; I never like using the DE to interpret the actual books, for obvious reasons. TAnthony 01:53, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

Prelude epigraphs
The first is actually from Heretics:


 * The basic rule is this: Never support weakness; always support strength.
 * -The Bene Gesserit Coda
