Prov 1:1-7

“You’ve heard of the meat of the word and milk of the word, proverbs is the hard candy of the word. You don’t just swallow it. You don’t just bite into it. You have to let it dissolve very slowly on your tongue.” Tim Keller

The book of Proverbs opens by breaking up the plain daylight of wisdom (ḥokmâ) into its rainbow of constituent colours. Derek Kidner

“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.” - Yoda

I used to wonder about that myself. Thought it was a bunch of mumbo jumbo: a magical power holding together good and evil, the dark side and the light. Crazy thing is...it’s true. The Force, the Jedi. All of it. It’s all true. - Hans Solo 

In my experience, when you think you understand the Force, you realize just how little you know." - Ahsoka Tano
