Charles Yu Quotes
When You Are A Kid, Playing With The Other Kids On Your Street, And Everyone Is Fighting Over Who They Are Going To Be, You Have To Call Dibs Early, As Soon As You See One Another, Pretty Much As Soon As You Step Outside Your House, Even If You're Halfway Down The Block. First Dibs Gets Hans Solo. Everyone Knows That. You Don't Even Have To Say It. If You Are First, You Are Han Solo, Period, End Of Story ... I Was Never Totally Sure Why Everyone Wanted To Be Han Solo. Maybe It Was Because He Wasn't Born Into It, Like Luke, With The Birthright And The Natural Talent For The Force And The Premade Story. Solo Had To Make His Own Story. He Was A Freelance Protagonist, A Relatively Ordinary Guy Who Got To The Major Leagues By Being Quick With A Gun And A Joke. He Was, Basically, A Hero Because He Was Funny.
