Ian Doescher
“O help/ Me, Obi-Wan Kenobi, help. Thou art/ Mine only hope.

-Leia Organa”
Ian Doescher, William Shakespeare's Star Wars: Verily, A New Hope

Lloyd Alexander
“It is strange,' he said at last. 'I had longed to enter the world of men. Now I see it filled with sorrow, with cruelty and treachery, with those who would destroy all around them.'
'Yet, enter it you must,' Gwydion answered, 'for it is a destiny laid on each of us. True, you have seen these things. But there are equal parts of love and joy.”
Lloyd Alexander, The Black Cauldron

John Jackson Miller
“Then there is Annileen. I was tempted to call her 'the Intrepid Annileen' just now - because she seems to be able to deal with whatever horror this planet can imagine. That's what I need to become: absolutely familiar with all the dangers here. She takes them in stride. Not because she's fearless, but because she knows she has to go on, to take care of all the people in her life.”
John Jackson Miller, Star Wars: Knight Errant, Vol. 3: Escape

Lloyd Alexander
“Is there not glory enough in living the days given to us? You should know there is adventure in simply being among those we love and the things we love, and beauty, too.”
Lloyd Alexander, The Black Cauldron

Henry Kissinger
“The acquisition of knowledge from books provides an experience different from the Internet. Reading is relatively time-consuming; to ease the process, style is important. Because it is not possible to read all books on a given subject, much less the totality of books, or to organize easily everything one has read, learning from books places a premium on conceptual thinking - the ability to recognize comparable data and events and project patterns into the future. And style propels the reader into a relationship with the author, or with the subject matter, by fusing substance and aesthetics.”
Henry Kissinger, World Order
