The line comes from Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope from 1977, spoken by Obi-Wan Kenobi as he guides Luke Skywalker. It became one of the saga's most quoted blessings, repeated across films, series, and fan culture alongside characters like Chewbacca. Shared on soundboards and in edits for May the Fourth and everyday farewells, it endures because its simple promise of support feels timeless, comforting, and instantly recognisable to generations of fans who grew up hearing it before big moments and goodbyes alike.
