The Force Quotes

“Suffering is the fuel in the engine of civilization."


-Vergere”
― Matthew Woodring Stover, Traitor

“The Force is not so simple, and neither are the emotions of living creatures. Most Jedi have felt the temptation of the dark side. It is only natural. But we resist it. It is a deliberate path to the dark, not a series of bad days. Being a Jedi is about choosing the light over and over again.”
― Justina Ireland, A Test of Courage

“The Force is a trap. It calls us with dreams of power or skill or just being able to change things. It’s the same, light or dark.
But it chews us up, uses us for its purposes, whatever bizarre cosmic goals it’s trying to achieve and tells us it’s destiny.
We aren’t people to it. We’re just tools. Tools named Jedi and Sith.”
― Charles Soule, Star Wars, Vol. 1: The Destiny Path

“Surely you must understand that the means are no less important than the ends. A Jedi uses the Force for knowledge and defense, never for attack.”
― Timothy Zahn, Star Wars: Dark Force Rising

“Whatever it is you’re looking for, it might be right there in front of you, if you could only see it. The Force… you should learn to trust it.”
― George Mann, Star Wars: Life Day Treasury - Holiday Stories From a Galaxy Far, Far Away

“Obi-Wan sprang forward, his lightsaber flashing. They moved in the same rhythm, ready to cover each other, knowing when the other would go on the offense. It was a flow Qui-Gon remembered, when he knew what his apprentice would do before Obi-Wan did it. The Force surged around them, gathering so that it felt like heat and light, making every move easy.”
― Jude Watson, Legacy of the Jedi

“SET*SΦRT.Space.Elements.Time = Retrospect Offsets In Turn”
― Jonathan Roy Mckinney Gero EagleO2

“The planet is dying. The seas rebel. The Force is sickened here. The world screams. The universe screams. But even this must be as the Force wills it. As bad as this is, I have faith. This must be for a reason.”
― Kieron Gillen, Star Wars, Vol. 7: The Ashes of Jedha

“This is Master Obi-Wan Kenobi… I regret to report that both our Jedi Order and the Republic have fallen – with the dark shadow of the Empire rising to take their place. This message is a warning and a reminder for any surviving Jedi: trust in the Force. Do not return to the Temple. That time has passed and our future is uncertain. Avoid Coruscant. Avoid detection. Be secret… but be strong. We will each be challenged: our trust, our faith, our friendships. But we must persevere, and in time I believe a new hope will emerge. May the Force be with you always.”
― Greg Weisman, Star Wars: Kanan Omnibus

“The pendulum of the Force swings, and we rest upon it.”
― Kieron Gillen, Star Wars, Vol. 7: The Ashes of Jedha

“Herein, too, lies a despicable certainty: the galaxy is rife with terror. It crowds the shadows, lurks at the threshold, watches from behind every half-closed door. The dark side is ever present, waiting to tempt the unwary, to make monsters of the benign, to twist the bright spark of the imagination toward fear.
Yes, the ways of the dark side are insidious indeed, but they are not unknown—not if you know where to look.
Or should that be . . . where not to look?”
― George Mann, Star Wars: Dark Legends

“[I ask him what he means by “it.”]
The force! Remember Star Wars? “Use the force, Luke”?
[He laughs wildly.]
Except this is a case of don’t use the force! Stop the force! Imprison the force! The chaotic something that keeps driving at that thin place - and all the thin places of the world, I imagine. Sometimes I think there’s a whole chain of ruined universes behind that force, stretching back untold eons in time like monstrous footprints…”
― Stephen King, N.

“Let the Force guide you. Let it flow through you as it flows through me. Use that power, and your instincts, for they are one and the same.”
― Adam Christopher, Shadow of the Sith

“The Force makes all things light, my young friend.”
― Charles Soule, Star Wars: Darth Vader - Dark Lord of the Sith, Vol. 1: Imperial Machine

“Idyth had kept no journals, no record of his missions, for in his modesty he had believed that to measure one’s life in such a way was to place too much emphasis on the individual when, in truth, a Jedi was nothing more than a sum of all that had come before and all that would come after, a vessel for the Force, with which it might seek balance.”
― George Mann, Star Wars: Dark Legends

“So how do we move forward? And how do we make sure we get it right? Very simply, we trust in the Force, and we trust one another.”
― Dave Filoni, A New Dawn

“The only ally a Jedi requires is the Force.”
― Charles Soule, Star Wars: Obi-Wan & Anakin

“It was said that whenever the Force closes a hatch, it opens a viewport… and every viewport that had so much as cracked in this past thirteen standard years had found a Dark Lord of the Sith already at the rim, peering in, calculating how best to slip through.”
― Matthew Woodring Stover, Revenge of the Sith[SW REVENGE OF THE SITH M/TV][Mass Market Paperback]

“Be mindful of the currents of the living Force: to do one’s duty is not always to do right. Concern yourself with right action. Let duty take care of itself.”
― Matthew Woodring Stover, Revenge of the Sith[SW REVENGE OF THE SITH M/TV][Mass Market Paperback]

“Some believe it possible to enter completely into the Force after death.”
“Surely we all do, Master.”
“Ah—but perhaps one can remain unique and individual. Can remain oneself.”
― Sean Stewart, Yoda - Dark Rendezvous

“For what is life but pilgrimage? And what is life but conflict?”
― Alexander Freed, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story

“The Force is with me, and I am with the Force. And I fear nothing, for all is as the Force wills it.”
― Alexander Freed, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story

“Being a Jedi is not just about power, or lightsabers, or even skill with the Force. It is about connection. Being part of something bigger. I am stronger as part of the Jedi Order than I could ever be alone.”
― Charles Soule , Star Wars: Obi-Wan & Anakin

“Obi-Wan wasn’t even fighting. He was only a vessel, emptied of self. The Force, shaped by his skill and guided by his clarity of mind, fought through him.”
― Matthew Woodring Stover, Revenge of the Sith[SW REVENGE OF THE SITH M/TV][Mass Market Paperback]

“They’re out there, Drake. They’ll come back to Coruscant, restore the order and make things the way they were. We must stay true to the Force… to take back what’s been taken.”
― Paul Ens, Star Wars: Evasive Action - Recruitment

“The Force had a way of bringing people together when the time was right.”
― Claudia Gray, Lost Stars

“For every ebb there’s a flow; for every flow there’s an ebb. The full moon must wane just as the new moon must wax. Happiness turns to sorrow; sorrow is reborn as hope. There is nothing constant but change in the Tide, and I am Change.”
― Ken Liu, Star Wars: The Legends of Luke Skywalker

“The Jedi were guardians of the galaxy,” said Seeker. His face flickered in the shadows cast by the roaring bonfire, around which the villagers danced and sang. “For more than a thousand years, they wielded the Force to preserve peace. They were beloved by those who loved justice and feared by those who served evil.”
― Ken Liu, Star Wars: The Legends of Luke Skywalker

“Rarely did events play out as imagined, in any case. The order of future events was transient. In the same way that the past was reconfigured by selective memory, future events, too, were moving targets. One could only act on instinct, grab hold of an intuited perfect moment, and spring into action. One heartbeat late and the universe would have recomposed itself, no imposition of will sufficient to forestall the currents. One could only observe and react. Surprise was the element absent from any periodic table. A keystone element; a missing ingredient. The means by which the Force amused itself. A reminder to all sentient beings that some secrets could never be unlocked.”
― James Luceno, Darth Plagueis
