The Star Wars Databank is the official Star Wars site's reference on characters, locations and technology. Entries are checked when they are posted but may not be kept up to date. When they are up to date the movie sections are "G-Canon" and the Expanded Universe sections are "C-Canon".
Each article progresses by describing the subject's incarnation in the movies if applicable, and moving on to Expanded Universe material; finally, there is often a "Behind the Scenes" section which describes the subject's real-world history, inspiration, and production.
Famous quotes containing the words star and/or wars:
“One year
They sent a million here:
Here men were drunk like water, burnt like wood.
The fat of good
And evil, the breast’s star of hope
Were rendered into soap.”
—Randall Jarrell (1914–1965)
“The grief of the keen is no personal complaint for the death of one woman over eighty years, but seems to contain the whole passionate rage that lurks somewhere in every native of the island. In this cry of pain the inner consciousness of the people seems to lay itself bare for an instant, and to reveal the mood of beings who feel their isolation in the face of a universe that wars on them with winds and seas.”
—J.M. (John Millington)
