    I am in the planning stages of building an NJO website based in Macromedia Flash. As a part of this website, I plan on using numerous quotes from the series. However, I do not have the needed time to do an entire search of all 19 novels plus all extra material that has been released so I thought I would ask fans of the series for their favorite quotes. I'm looking for important, memorable, emotional, and funny quotes. Pretty much anything you can find. If you can please let me know who said the quote and in what book is was in. Thanks for the help and I look forward to seeing the results.

    -Keiran Locke

    A war unequaled
    an enemy unmatched
    requires a sacrifice unthinkable
    the cost of failure . . . DEATH
    the result of victory . . . FREEDOM.

I say it?s time we defend ourselves. Jedi for the Jedi!?
    -Kyp Durron

    ?Luke did the best he could, and he made mistakes. I was one of them.?
    -Kyp Durron

    ?Luke did the best he could, and he made mistakes. I was one of them. His generation of Jedi was put together like a rickety space scow, but from it something new has emerged. It's not the old Jedi order, nor should it be. We, Jaina, are the new Jedi order, and this is our war.?

    -Swilja Fenn

    "I made a mistake and he died. I made a mistake and you are dying."
    -Anakin Solo

    "Anakin, you have to know....even though I am dying...I would not change things...neither would Chewbacca."
    -Daeshara?cor

    ?You already are, Anakin, and you will be greater. As you heal, you will be stronger than anyone can imagine. We are proud of you, so proud...?
    -Daeshara?cor

    ?Anakin?Anakin died for a reason.?
    -Luke Skywalker

    ?We have lost untold numbers of loved ones, my own son Anakin and my husband?s dear friend Chewbacca among them, and now we are battling in the skies over Coruscant itself. We are still fighting.?
    -Leia Organa Solo

    ?Soon, the enemy will be on our rooftops, in our homes, roaming the dark underlayers of our city. To those able to evacuate and to those trapped behind, I say the same thing I would tell my twins?were I able to reach them behind enemy lines: Keep fighting.?
    -Leia Organa Solo

    ?Keep fighting until you can fight no longer, then exhaust the enemy by chasing you, and turn and fight some more. Keep fighting. I promise you, we will prevail.?

    -Tahiri Veila

    ?You mean torture? Well?if you have to. But make it a good one. One I haven?t seen before. I was tortured by Darth Vader. You?ll have to go some way to top him.?
    -Han Solo

    ?I?ll trust you to improve the story. Luke Skywalker goes out in a blaze of glory in battle with a hideous red devourer.?
    -Luke Skywalker

    "A god cannot die. Therefore it can have no fear
    of death. So who is braver, a god or a mortal?"
    -Charat Kraal

    If the Jedi were a planet, Master Skywalker stood at one pole,
    radiating calm. Kyp Durron stood at the other, fists clenched in fury.
    Somewhere near the equator, the planet was beginning to pull apart.
    ??Edge of Victory I: Conquest?

    ?If it doesn?t hurt, you?re not doing it right.?
    -Luke Skywalker

    ?There?s the trouble with fanatics. They?re easy to manipulate, but somehow they take everything five steps too far.?

    That's my (incomplete) collection

    DW:
    Kyp Durron to Jagged Fel about Jaina Solo:
    Kyp Durron: "She will never accept a boyfriend who can't outfly her."

    Jagged Fel informes Jaina Solo that her father has a slightly fractured skull:
    Jaina: "My mother must have been suprised. She always said Dad's skull was thicker than a Star Destroyer's hull."
    Jag: "She intimated something along that line."

    EL1
    Kyp Durron: "I suspect I'd benefit from analyzing and advising for a while instead of leading." Han Solo to his wife: "Obviously a fake Kyp. You distract him. I'll shoot him under the table."

    Wedge Antilles to Jaina Solo after her assignment of Twin Suns:
    "There you go. An instant squadron for you to reconfigure as the honor guard of the manifestation of a Yuuzhan Vong goddess. This means that the very first thing you get is bureaucratic personnel matters to deal with. I'll see if I can round up an Ewok pilot candidate to throw your way to make things more difficult. You'll be my age in no time."

    Leia Organa Solo trying to convince her husband to help her with finding allies for the Resistance:
    Leia Organa Solo: "You can help me."
    Han Solo: "How?"
    Leia Organa Solo: "With politics."
    Han Solo: "You know how i feel about politics. You know how good I am at it."
    Leia Organa Solo: "The Resistance means it's time for new politics. The kind where, if the fellow smiling at you is planning to put a vibroblade in your back, instead of smiling in return, you shoot him."
    Han Solo: "Really? Shoot him just once, or as often as I want?"
    Leia Organa Solo: "As long as your blaster's batteries hold out."

    Han Solo and his wife, being interrupted by C-3PO in an intimate moment:
    Han Solo: "As a reactivated scoundrel, I get to shoot Goldenrod, too, don't I?
    Leia Organa Solo shakes her head.
    Han Solo: "So that's the catch."
    Leia Organa Solo: "That's the catch."

    During the insertion into Coruscant using Sky Surfers:
    Luke Skywalker (thinking on the way down): "If this is bad for me, what is it going to be like for Tahiri? A teenager?
    Mara Jade Skywalker: "Interesting ride, farmboy."
    Luke Skywalker: "Not too bad."
    Tahiri Veila (her voice faint, full of emotion): "Face?"
    Luke Skywalker (thinking): "I and Mara will need to offer her some reassurance."
    Face: "Yes?"
    Tahiri Veila: "I want one! I've got to have one of these when we get back. Oh, what a ride! Can we do it again?"

    EL2:
    During the first meeting of the Taanab Yellow Aces:
    Jaina Solo: "What the Sith spawn are those?"
    Ace One (Wes Janson): "Twin Suns One, you have the Taanab Yellow Aces, Ace One speaking. We're here to show the defenders of Borleias what flying is all about."
    Jaina Solo: "So you're the masters at flying out of an engagement zone?"
    Aces One: "Ooh. Don't say engagement. Unless you're volunteering, that is."
    The Reckless Abandon: "Ace One, Reckless Abandon. Do you suppose you could confine your courtship rituals to groundside?"
    Ace One: "Copy Reckless. Twins Leader, look me up when we're on the ground. Ace One out."
    Jaina Solo on the squadron frequency: "Arrogant little monkey-lizard."
    Piggy: "I agree. I know him."

    Wes Janson talking with Wedge Antilles and Tycho Celchu after his arrival on Borleias
    Wes Janson: "...Tell me about a female pilot, Twin Suns leader. She has a nice voice. Does she have the looks to match?"
    Wedge Antilles: "Well, yes. She's nice looking."
    Wes Janson: "Married? Attached?"
    Wedge Antilles: "Attached I think. Recently attached.
    Wes Janson: "So, who is she?"
    Wedge Antilles: "Jay something. Isn't that right?"
    Tycho Celchu: "I think so."
    Wedge Antilles: "Jay, Jay..., that's it. Jaina Solo."
    Wes Janson (paling): "Jaina Solo."
    Wedge Antilles:"I'm sure that's the name."
    Wes Janson: "Sith spawn, I was flirting with a nine-year old."
    Tycho Celchu:"Nineteen. And she has more kills than the three of us put together at the same age."
    Wes Janson: "I guess I'd better apologize to her and then throw myself on her lightsaber."
    Wedge Antilles:"No, just ask Han to shoot you. It'll be more merciful and it

    Thanks for all of the quotes. Those are really going to help me. I've got the main page designed, now all I have to do is compile tons and tons of data to plugin to all the links. Of course, this is going to take forever so I thought I'd let you guys and gals see what I have in mind. Here is the link:

    http://www.angelfire.com/theforce/njodatabase

    If that doesn't work let me know. The site is in early design stages. It doesn't even have a loading screen yet so please be patient while it loads. The sit was created using Macromedia Flash. Please let me know what you think via e-mail or reply. Keep the quotes coming.

    Thanks for the props Rogue. The Angelfire link will hopefully change once the website is nearing completion. That will of course depend on whether or not I can afford it since I am a poor college student. It will also probably take me forever to complete but I will continue to update as it progresses so I can get feedback from the community. Any suggestions for the website, either for what I have now, or for what I still have to build would be greatly welcome. Keep the qoutes coming. They're awesome.

    i have a few favorites.




    ?If someone is aiming a blaster at your ally, do you raise your ligthsaber to prevent it, or do you do nothing because a Jedi isn?t supposed to take aggressive action? I mean, where?s the line, Jacen? We?re in a war for survival , and defense sometimes means having to eliminate the opposition.? - Jedi Eclipse




    "There are times to use the Force in self-defense, and there are times when defense means attack. But torture for the sake of torture--never." - Conquest




    "That's the biggest trough of bantha fodder I've ever heard anyone spit up in my life." - Conquest



    "I've thought about the dark side for most of my life. My mother named me after the man who became Darth Vader. The Emperor touched me through her womb. Every night I had nightmares that ended with me in my grandfather's armor. I think I've probably thought a lot more about the dark side than anyone I know." - Rebirth




    "Everybody gets a nasty surprise someday, I'd rather get it standing up than lying down" - Rebirth




    "Feelings are tools, too, if you don't let them control you." - Anakin
    "And how are you to know when a feeling controls you? When anger guides your hand or stays it?" - Ikrit



    "I've just been vomited by a fish," - Anakin
    "Obviously. Why are you telling me?" - Vua Rapuung
    "Never mind."


    "The fire - it passed over us." - Vua Rapuung
    "It did." - Anakin
    "And we live."
    "We do."
    "This was your doing? Another Jeedai sorcery?"
    "Something like that."
    "Then you saved my life. How disgusting. How unfortunate."
    "No, don't gush on so. It was nothing, really."



    "Should I have left you two un-chaperoned?" - Corran Horn


    ?Are they all that ugly?? - Anakin




    "You can feel sorry for yourself. You were reckless, Anakin, and you paid the price--and that's not the point. You need to stop blaming yourself." - Jaina




    "Your timing is perfect. Wait until we're doomed to give me my first kiss." - Tahiri Veila




    "Anakin, I was flying when you were nothing more than an fight brewing between Han and Leia. Before that, even. Give me credit for knowing a thing or two." - Corran Horn




    "The deeds of heroes send ripples spreading through the Force. Anakin's life continues to flow outward, touching and guiding those who have yet to hear his name. Most of us here use the Force--this young man embodied it." - Kyp Durron




    "I mean, I'm not the kind of girl who'll just kiss anyone on a first-time-to-be-stuck-in-a-locker-in-an-airless-spacestation." - Tahiri



    "Remember. You two are better than the sum of your parts. Together, you could--No. I've said enough. Together, that's the important thing. Now go." - Ikrit




    ?Don?t lie to me, Anakin. The desire to be out there saving the galaxy is in your blood so thick I can hear it screaming from here.? - Mara Jade Skywalker




    "Sounds like there's some division in the ranks." -Talon Karrde
    "That would be Jacen and Anakin." - Luke Skywalker
    "Complementing one another, no doubt."



    "The New Republic? Are you blind? There is no New Republic! It died before the Yuuzhan Vong came!" - Leia Organa Solo
    "It didn't! Because if it did, then Anakin died for nothing!" - Han Solo


    ?He learned something there that the rest of us don?t know, something that could have made all the difference, if only he?d had time to figure it out. If there is such a thing as destiny, I think that was Anakin?s. He has always been different. Special...With Anakin?s death I lost a brother, but the Jedi lost something I can?t begin to define. My feelings tell me it?s something important, something we lost a very long time ago.? - Jaina Solo


    ?I witnessed the death of perhaps the greatest of them all, the one called Anakin Solo, who gave up his life so that the ones he loved might live" - Nom Anor



    "To all of our sons and all of our daughters be they with us or beyond" - Han Solo

    Han, Destiny's Way: "What the Empire would have done was build a super-colossal Yuuzhan Vong-killing machine. They would have called it the Nova Colossus or the Galaxy Destructor or The Nostril Of Palpatine or something equally grandiose. They would have spent billions of credits, employed thousands of contractors and subcontractors, and equipped it with the latest in death-dealing technology. And you know what would have happened? It wouldn't have worked. They'd forget to bolt down a metal plate over an access hatch leading to the main reactors, or some other mistake, and a hotshot enemy pilot would drop a bomb down there and blow the whole thing up. Now that's what the Empire would have done. [face_laugh]
