Main » The Mentat's Creed (or Mantra)
From Frank Herbert's Dune universe

Summary:this is what goes at the top of the site

The David Lynch Dune film includes a scene in which Piter De Vries recites the following upon drinking sapho juice:

"It is by will alone I set my mind in motion.
It is by the juice of Sapho that thoughts acquire speed,
the lips acquire stains, the stains become a warning.
It is by will alone I set my mind in motion."

This mantra is a creation of Lynch and does not appear in the books, though in Dune there is mention that Thufir Hawat has cranberry-stained lips from sapho juice.
