Favorite Quotes

1: You're good, Corran, but you're no Luke Skywalker.

24: Wedge: "I'll listen to reason, sir, when I see the product of some reasoning."

45: Ooryl: "When a Gand has given offense, or is ashamed of actions, this diminishes the gains made in life. Name reduction is an act of contrition, an apology. Ooryl would like to think Ooryl will not often be called Qrygg, but Qrygg knows the likelihood of this is slender."
Whistler: tootles jauntily at Corran
Corran, to Whistler, rolling his eyes: "People would know my first name was Corran even if we did use this system."

311: Wedge: "This mission isn't going to be easy, but I know we can do it."
Corran: "If it was easy, it wouldn't be a Rogue Squadron mission."
Bror: "And if it wasn't given to Rogue Squadron, it would have no chance of being accomplished."
Wedge: "If ego could power shields, you'd be invincible."

313: Wedge: "Don't give me odds. You know Corellians have no tolerance for odds."
Tycho: "Which is why you so willingly play sabacc."
Wedge: "And why so many of us are part of the Rebellion."

314: Tycho: "You're afraid you're getting too old for what we've always told ourselves is a young man's game."
Wedge: "If you think that, you're as confused as a Gamorrean placed between two full mugs of lum. First off, you're a year older than I am."
Tycho: "Nine months." Wedge: "Which is rather close to a year, my friend."
...
Wedge: "So, am I too old to be doing this?"
Tycho: "Wedge, over the last four months I've flown against--and shot down--every one of the kids you have going on this mission. So have you. If you're too old for this, the New Republic might as well give up now. Barring a squadron of Jedi Knights winging their way in here, you're the best we've got. That may not impress you, but there are plenty of Imp pilots out there who don't sleep the whole night through because of dreams about you being on their tails."
