About This Quote

Llarimar, the great Ewok warrior, said to be the greatest of all the Ewoks, had told him to do his best. That sounded like an awful lot of work. Unfortunately, doing nothing was beginning to seem like even MORE work. He felt as though he were trapped under a mountain and climbed down and down and down and down and down and down and down and down and down and down and down and down. He couldn't stand up anymore.
