“Fortunately, Luke's unwavering faith in his father's innate goodness had proved to be a stronger force than the power of the dark side.”
Ryder Windham, Star Wars: The Life and Legend of Obi-Wan Kenobi

“The way to extinguish a shadow is to increase the light.”
Ryder Windham, Jedi vs. Sith: Star Wars: The Essential Guide to the Force

“Obi-Wan Kenobi…” he said. “Obi-Wan? Now that’s a name I’ve not heard in a long time…a long time.” “I think my uncle knows him,” Luke said. “He said he was dead.…” “Oh, he’s not dead,” Ben said, smiling as he glanced at the sky. “Not yet.” “You know him?” “Well, of course I know him. He’s me! I haven’t gone by the name Obi-Wan since, oh, before you were born.”
Ryder Windham, Star Wars: Classic Trilogy
