I love video games. I love, love, love them! I also love 'Star Wars.' I wish Jedi was a true religion.
Suddenly Star Wars came out while we were on hiatus, and we looked like the old Buck Rogers series, where they had cigarette smoke blowing out the back of the rocket ship.
George Lucas wanted this moving camera for all of the photography in Star Wars. He was willing to take a risk with the concepts that I advanced with regard to ways for doing that.
There are no black film composers doing the likes of Star Wars, doing the likes of E.T., doing the likes of Jurassic Park. There are none, nor will there ever be one. That ain't about to happen!
Marcus: War is coming! And who's gonna lead us, YOU? If I'm not in charge, our entire way of life is decimated!
Ben Obi-Wan Kenobi: [after hiding from the stormtroopers on the Millennium Falcon] Who's the more foolish, the fool or the fool who follows him?
Ben Obi-Wan Kenobi: Mos Eisley spaceport: You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy. We must be cautious.
Princess Leia Organa: Aren't you a little short for a stormtrooper? Luke Skywalker: Huh? Oh, the uniform. [Luke takes off Stormtrooper mask]
Princess Leia Organa: I don't know who you are or where you came from, but from now on you'll do as I tell you, okay?
Princess Leia Organa: Your friend is quite a mercenary. I wonder if he really cares about anything... or anybody. Luke Skywalker: I care.
Han Solo: Not a bad bit of rescuing, huh? You know, sometimes I amaze even myself. Princess Leia: That doesn't sound too hard.
Han Solo: This is *not* gonna work. Luke Skywalker: Why didn't you say so before? Han Solo: I *did* say so before.
[first lines] C-3PO: Did you hear that? They shut down the main reactor. We'll be destroyed for sure. This is madness.
C-3PO: Now don't you forget this! Why I should stick my neck out for you is far beyond my capacity!
If I had unlimited funds, wall space and storage, I would collect a lot more things, like 'Planet of the Apes,' 'Star Wars,' science fiction stuff, autographs, and prop guns and weapons. I have to draw the line somewhere.
Science offers no brief for the telekinetic powers of Darth Vader and hardly any greater justification for the faster-than-light travel that makes his empire possible. And yet what is 'Star Wars' if not pure quill SF?
The main stuff I like is from the late '60s to the early '90s. That's the stuff I love. It's the James Cameron's and the Paul Verhoven stuff. I guess when I was younger, 'Star Wars' had an influence.
When I went to the cinema as a boy, when I saw a war film, I thought the general was the star, and that Cary Grant was an extra. I had no idea about the structure of film, but I loved going to the cinema.
[Anakin has been appointed onto the council, but denied mastership] Anakin Skywalker: I swear to you... I didn't ask to be put on the council. Obi-Wan Kenobi: But it's what you wanted. Your friendship with Chancellor Palpatine seems to have paid off....
Author says that, while Eisenhower had other intellectual mentors, he learned how to lead men from Gen. Walter Krueger. Krueger was the first American enlisted man to rise to four-star general, and he so identified with those he led that he once invi...
Cold comradeship do stars provide. They light the closer, inner side Of night's vast weight, which, chill and clear, Pulls on us like some puppeteer. Its unseen threads to heads and hearts Attached, it acts us through our parts, From birth's first cr...
