I'm currently working on an essay for an award. I'm on a FIRST Robotics Team, and FIRST gives a Chairman's Award at our competitions. One part of this award includes an essay.
Our team's name relates to Star Wars, and we'd like to bring this theme into our essay. Are we allowed to include things like "Jedi Masters" and certain memorable quotes without facing copyright infringement if I gain no monetary value directly from the essay?
Thank you!
