The Quote of the Day from ago!

Abel G. Peña (+7)
"I grew up bilingual, speaking Spanish and English (eventually, I also acquired competency in Italian), and my association of the teddy-bear-like Ewoks to español was indelibly imprinted on me at the age of four when I first saw Return of the Jedi in the movie theaters. It was then that I heard the furry warrior Wicket exclaim "¡Ay, Chihuahua!" in reaction to a narrow miss by an Imperial stormtrooper's blaster bolt."

- Abel G. Peña, on the process of translating Star Wars from one language to another

 * 1) If it gets any more people to read that post on the end of LucasArts, it's worth a downer QOTD. Look where the link in the attribution goes before you think it should be removed. NaruHina  Talk Anakinsolo.png 00:22, April 10, 2013 (UTC)
 * 2) I like to think of the LucasArts that greenlit KOTOR, not the LucasArts that gave us mediocre action games. *coughTFUcough* Gal-icon.jpg  OLIOSTER  (talk) 01:20, April 16, 2013 (UTC)

Lando with Chewie (+4)
"It had been said that there were only three absolutes in life: death, taxes, and bad liquor. But as Lando strolled across the Marblewood grounds, he decided he could add a fourth to the list. When you traveled with a Wookiee, people would move out of your way."

- Lando Calrissian's thoughts while walking across the Marblewood Estate grounds with Chewbacca
