“He’d spent his entire childhood suffering under the cruelty of one hypocrite; he refused to inflict suffering on behalf of another, even if that person was the Emperor.”
― Claudia Gray, Lost Stars

“Accept no favors, and you’ll never owe any.”
― John Jackson Miller, Bottleneck

― Paul S. Kemp, Lords of the Sith

― Ken Liu, Star Wars: The Legends of Luke Skywalker

“She wants to either bring back the Empire or take me to bed, Ransolm thought. Possibly both.”
― Claudia Gray, Bloodline

“This is how the Emperor has always operated, back to the time of the Republic â€� the gun is less threatening than the lie.”
― Alexander Freed, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story

“At the age of fifteen, during the winter when she’d discovered smashball, romance, and her parentsâ€� profound imperfections, Mon Mothma had decided to devote her life to studying history; decided to turn her back on her family’s political dynasty and to spend her days in a cramped study reading thousand-year-old diaries and letters and cargo manifests until her eyes burned. She would be detective, coroner, and philosopher all at once, examining means and motive and cause of death for entire civilizations.
She hadn’t become a historian, of course. By the next summer, Mon’s moment of rebellion had been forgotten. Inertia and family pressures and a genuine love of governance had returned her to the road to politics. She’d gone on to become a senator (far too young, she thought now) and scrabbled for votes and smiled and kept her head above water until she’d learned how to play the game for real.”
― Alexander Freed, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story

“She learned that the main weapon of the Empire, after fear, was hunger. She had seen this strategy at work on Raada and also during the Clone Wars, but to see it applied on such a large scale made her very uncomfortable. The Empire was still new, still establishing itself in the outer reaches of the galaxy, and yet it was already incredibly powerful. And she realized that she had helped build it. The mechanisms put in place during the Clone Wars had been twisted for the Empire’s use, and every day the Emperor’s hold grew tighter. She almost admired Palpatine for his ability to pull off a long-term plan—except for his being evil and all.”
― E.K. Johnston, Ahsoka

“Things fall apart, Ciena. Our parents saw the Republic self-destruct. The Empire might last another year or another decade, but eventually there’s going to be a brand-new order and brand-new law. Who will you serve then?”
― Claudia Gray, Lost Stars

“This was not the fate Krennic had envisioned for Jedha. The Death Star was designed to obliterate worlds, not maim them. Yet he wondered if the moon would ever recover from such an attack, or whether the cascading effects of a burning atmosphere and broken crust would result in a tortuous death played out across millennia. He felt in his bones that his weapon had exposed something profound—about the nature of worlds, about their lifeblood and their death throes—though he could not have put it into words. Maybe, he thought, that’s what poets are for.”
― Alexander Freed, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story

“If the good people leave, doesn’t that make everything worse?”
― Claudia Gray, Lost Stars

“Bear witness, she thought. That’s all you can do for them now, so do it.”
― Claudia Gray, Leia, Princess of Alderaan

“You no longer have names. You are only numbers.”
― Robbie Thompson, Star Wars: Han Solo - Imperial Cadet

“So you gave up your dream to do your duty.”
― Claudia Gray, Bloodline

“If you’re only trying to be the opposite of a thing, you’re still letting that thing define you.”
― Claudia Gray, Leia, Princess of Alderaan

“I am an extension of the Emperor’s will. My actions here simply execute his directives. The Emperor is the mind. I am his tool. Is a tool responsible if it is used to kill someone?”
― Charles Soule, Star Wars: Lando
