may the Force be with you

A catchphrase adapted from the media franchise Star Wars, in which it is used as a blessing that invokes "the Force" (a metaphysical power capable of being wielded for good or evil) to protect or guide the other person. In general use, the phrase is often a humorous way of wishing someone success or good fortune. A: "OK, I'm heading off for my final exams." B: "Oh, wow. May the Force be with you!" A: "Tom is traveling for work, so I'll be taking care of the kids by myself this weekend." B: "Oof, may the Force be with you."
