Famous quotes containing the words day and/or star:

    So we do not lose heart. Even though our outer nature is wasting away, our inner nature is being renewed day by day.
    Bible: New Testament, 2 Corinthians 4:16.

    The obvious parallels between Star Wars and The Wizard of Oz have frequently been noted: in both there is the orphan hero who is raised on a farm by an aunt and uncle and yearns to escape to adventure. Obi-wan Kenobi resembles the Wizard; the loyal, plucky little robot R2D2 is Toto; C3PO is the Tin Man; and Chewbacca is the Cowardly Lion. Darth Vader replaces the Wicked Witch: this is a patriarchy rather than a matriarchy.
