Counter Recoil Force

Famous quotes containing the words counter, recoil and/or force:

“As deaths have accumulated I have begun to think of life and death as a set of balance scales. When one is young, the scale is heavily tipped toward the living. With the first death, the first consciousness of death, the counter scale begins to fall. Death by death, the scales shift weight until what was unthinkable becomes merely a matter of gravity and the fall into death becomes an easy step.”
—Alison Hawthorne Deming (b. 1946)

“Violence does, in truth, recoil upon the violent, and the schemer falls into the pit which he digs for another.”
—Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930)

“The Force is with you, young Skywalker, but you are not a Jedi yet.”
—Leigh Brackett (1915–1978)
