We went to the Star Wars costume exhibit at the DIA today and it was glorious! The details! The stories! Oh my! Here’s some quotes and pictures. 

“You can’t do it unless you can imagine it.” – George Lucas

“I thought Star Wars was too wacky for the general public.” – George Lucas

“When I was making ‘Star Wars,’ I wasn’t restrained by any kind of science. I simply said, ‘I’m going to create a world that’s fun and interesting, makes sense, and seems to have a reality to it.’ “- George Lucas

“I don’t comment on the physics errors of ‘Star Wars,’ all right. I just – you let that one go.” – Neil deGrasse Tyson

“People are still asking me if I knew Star Wars was going to be that big of a hit. Yes, we all knew. The only one who didn’t know was George.” -Carrie Fisher
