There will be times when the struggle seems impossible.

I know this already.

Alone, unsure, dwarfed by the scale of the enemy.

Remember this.

Freedom is a pure idea.

It occurs spontaneously and without instruction.

Random acts of insurrection are occurring constantly throughout the galaxy.

There are whole armies, battalions, that have no idea that they've already enlisted in the cause.

Remember that the frontier of the rebellion is everywhere,

and even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

And then remember this.

The imperial need for control is so desperate because it is so unnatural.

The tyranny requires constant effort.

It breaks.

It leaks.

Authority is brittle.

Oppression is the mask of fear. Remember that.

I know this,

that day will come when all the skirmishes and battles.

His moments of defiance will have flooded the banks of the Empire's authority

and then there will be one too many.

One single thing will break the siege.
