Star Wars Quotes

“Trust? Don’t be a fool. There’s no trust in politics. Never has been. Never will be.”
― Jody Houser, Star Wars: Thrawn

“At one time or another, every warrior wishes to have an unconquerable fortress. Such a fortress is perceived as a refuge, a place of defiance, or a rock upon which enemies can be goaded into smashing themselves to their own destruction.
Politicians, too, yearn for such fortresses, though they envision them in terms of power and authority instead of stone and weapons and shields. Industrialists wish to be similarly protected against competitors and marauders, while pirates hope for defense against system authorities. In one way or another, all people wish for ultimate safety.
But ultimate safety does not exist. Those who trust in such will find that hope dashed upon the very rock behind which they seek to hide.”
― Timothy Zahn, Star Wars: Thrawn

“One whose path has taken a new turn is often initially disoriented. But as time passes, and the path continues steadily in its new direction, there is a tendency to believe that it will remain so forever, with no further turns.
Nothing is further from the truth. A path once bent is always susceptible to new changes.”
― Timothy Zahn, Star Wars: Thrawn
