    Need a good Star Wars quote.

    OK, so my 8 year old son is at his grandparents until tomorrow. We're re-painting/decorating his room while he's away. He wanted the ceiling painted black with glow in the dark stars on it, but we weren't going to do that. He wanted Star Wars scenes painted on the walls, but, well, we're not that artistic. My wife did get an 8 foot by 4 foot vinyl mural of a fantasy space scene to put on one wall, though, and we're going to see how it would look to affix vinyl Star Wars ships to the scene. There isn't much out there in this department...

    Anyway, my wife wants to paint a Star Wars quote on the wall in his room, but she doesn't want it to be one that is too common. She said she doesn't want any corny "use the Force" or "May the Force be with you" crap. Something a bit more obscure and yet inspirational. I thought I'd poll the TG hive mind to see what you come up with... I've thought of a couple, but nothing that really grabbed me as being just right. Help me TG, you're my only hope!

    "I've got a bad feeling about this."

    And hang a mirror right below it.

    The strategy is to force his self-esteem to rock-bottom before 10, so his teenage years will be one big rebound. It's unconventional, but success so often is.

    There's a lot of good ones, but most of them would be ridiculous on the wall of a bedroom. Here's a few that I would suggest:

    Always in motion is the future.
    - Jedi Master Yoda (Empire Strikes Back)

    Truly wonderful, the mind of a child is.
    - Jedi Master Yoda (Attack of the Clones)

    Only a Sith Lord deals in absolutes.
    - Obi Wan Kenobi (Revenge of the Sith)


    Hope these help.

    There is nothing more "obscure and yet inspirational" then "bi po bi bi po" from R2-D2

    Obi-Wan: Who's the more foolish: The fool, or the fool who follows him?

    Yoda: Size matters not. Look at me. Judge me by my size, do you? Hmm? Hmm. And well you should not. For my ally is the Force, and a powerful ally it is. Life creates it, makes it grow. Its energy surrounds us and binds us. Luminous beings are we, not this crude matter. You must feel the Force around you; here, between you, me, the tree, the rock, everywhere, yes. Even between the land and the ship.

    Yoda: If once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny. Consume you it will, as it did Obi-Wan's apprentice.

    Just have a video screen with a constant repeating image of the Emperor rubbing his hands together saying "Goooood. Gooood."

    Hilarious.

    Re: Need a good Star Wars quote.

    What about the classic phrase: "May the Force be with you..."?

    It's been used by Force and non-Force users alike.
