"It’s not over yet, Episode VII will come out this time next year and we can do a re-record of Christmas in the Stars and find those other tracks.''" "''No, no, no. I’m still living with the guilt of it! [Laughs]"

Anthony Daniels (+3)
"But it’s normal to me to be C-3PO in these scenes. It’s totally normal to see Harrison Ford being Han Solo and Carrie Fisher being Princess Leia. It was not a shock to me. And for the people looking after me, my dressers and so on, they were ecstatic, because they had been fans early on and now they’ve joined the film industry as prop makers and model makers, and there they were working with the real C-3PO. It has become a bit of a family and having J.J. Abrams get so many of the original people back, it did feel like a family...."

"I'm hoping to take over the world. First of all to build up the Mandalorian Mercs until they are so strong that I can take over Lucasfilm and be in charge of everything that they do."

Narrator: Revenge of the Sith novelization (+6)
"The Clone Wars have always been, in and of themselves, from their very inception, the revenge of the Sith. They were irresistible bait. They took place in remote locations, on planets that belonged, primarily, to 'somebody else.' They were fought by expendable proxies. And they were constructed as a win-win situation. The Clone Wars were the perfect Jedi trap. By fighting at all, the Jedi lost."

Narrator: Revenge of the Sith novelization (+5)
"His whole life— all his victories, all his struggles, all his heritage, all his principles and his sacrifices, everything he's done, everything he owns, everything he's been, all his dreams and grand vision for the future Empire and the Army of Sith— have been only a pathetic sham, because all of them, all of him, add up only to this. He has existed only for this. This. To be the victim of Anakin Skywalker's first cold-blooded murder. First but not, he knows, the last. Then the blades crossed at his throat uncross like scissors. Snip. And all of him becomes nothing at all."

Narrator: A New Dawn (+4)
"But what was happening to Gorse and Cynda was beyond serious. It was the sort of thing she'd vowed to stop someday. The day had just come early – too early, before she'd assembled a capable team. Not exactly the new dawn she’d had in mind."

Narrator: Death Star (novel) (+5)
"It took no more than an instant. Tenn knew that the beam's total destructive power was much bigger than matter-energy conversions limited to realspace. At full charge, the hyper-matter reactor provided a superluminal 'boost' that caused much of the planet's mass to be shifted immediately into hyperspace. As a result, Alderaan exploded into a fiery ball of eye-smiting light almost instantaneously, and a planar ring of energy reflux—the 'shadow' of a hyperspatial ripple—spread rapidly outward."

- Tenn Graneet, after he fired the Death Star's superlaser against Alderaan

 * 5) A convenient explanation, if oddly-placed in the novel. Almost "as you know" in effect. Still a good quote. JorrelWiki-shrinkable.pngFraajic 04:45, January 11, 2015 (UTC)

Narrator: Revenge of the Sith novelization (+2)
"The ion streaks of the escape pods spiraled through the battle that still flashed and flared silently in the void, pursued by starfighters and armed retrieval ships. Grievous nodded to himself; that should occupy them long enough for his command pod to make the run to his escape ship. As he entered his customized pod, he reflected that he was, for the first time in his career, violating orders: though he was under strict orders to leave the Chancellor unharmed, Palpatine was about to die alongside his precious Jedi. Then Grievous shrugged, and sighed. What more could he have done? There was a war on, after all. He was sure Lord Sidious would forgive him."

- General Grevious is mistaken

"All the younglings watching the battle in Coruscant's sky know it: when Anakin and Obi-Wan get there, those dirty Seppers are going to wish they'd stayed in bed today."
