Quotes8

  • Baron Vladimir Harkonnen: Never become more popular than the boss, unless you intend to sack him.
  • Baron Harkonnen: And so it begins. The trap is set. The prey approaches. A glorious winter is about to descend on House Atreides and all its heirs, and very soon, the years of humiliation visited upon my family will finally be avenged.
  • Baron Vladimir Harkonnen: [after Feyd's failed attempt on his life] Tell me, boy, why I shouldn't kill you right here?
  • [pause]
  • Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen: My brother.
  • Baron Harkonnen: My family has hated the Atreides for centuries. They have been the sand in our eyes, the stink at our meals, these arrogant Atreides, always standing in our way. I want Leto to appreciate the beauty of what I've done to him. I want him to know that I, Baron Vladimir Harkonnen, am the instrument of his family's demise. The extinction of House Atreides and the glorious ascension of House Harkonnen.
  • Baron Harkonnen: I want him to know that I, Baron Vladimir Harkonnen am the instrument of his family's demise.
  • Baron Harkonnen: Alone and vunerable at the edge of the universe, Duke Leto Atreides will finally come face to face with fear. When I'm done with him, he won't know who to trust, not even that Bene Gesserit whore he sleeps with. They'll all be turning on another like rats in a flood. By the time the traitor is fully revealed, the fate of Atreides will already be sealed.
  • Baron Harkonnen: So let the emperor mock house Harkonenn, Call us swine. Because in the end his throne will be mine.
  • Baron Vladimir Harkonnen: Perverting common wisdom, Nephew, is a mark of all great conspiracies.
