THE QUOTE:
May the Force be with you. / The Force will be with you, always. THE SPEAKER: Obi-Wan Kenobi/Luke Skywalker/Han Solo/General Dodonna/Admiral Ackbar. THE FILM: Practically every Star Wars film ever made. THE BACKGROUND: Whether a pantheistic expression of God, a meditation on Eastern philosophy or treatise on spirituality (and perhaps a combination of all the above), the Force is woven through the fabric of the Star Wars saga like a richly knit tapestry. It is mostly said/mentioned by believers in the Force when parting from loved ones and friends in times of trouble. After blowing up the Death Star, the disembodied voice of Obi-Wan assures Luke that the Force will always be with him. Even Admiral Ackbar gets in on the action in Return of the Jedi by uttering his own variation of what is arguably the most recognizable phrase in the entire Star Wars pantheon. FUN FACT: Obi-Wan never says May the Force be with you verbatim in A New Hope, but Captain Dodonna does, at the rebel assembly before the attack on the Death Star.
