[edit] History
A Legend of legends. Mazer saved the human race from the formic invasion (buggers) twice. He has outlived his generation many times over. Rackham is sent for several decades of relativistic travel and then brought back to train Ender, who is perceived as humanity's next great hope for the Third Invasion.

[edit] Quotes
- "Humanity does not ask us to be happy. It merely asks us to be brilliant on its behalf. Survival first, then happiness as we can manage it." - Mazer Rackham to Ender Wiggin
- "Since when do you have to tell the enemy when he has won?"
- "There is no teacher but the enemy. No one but the enemy will ever tell you what the enemy is going to do. No one but the enemy will ever teach you how to destroy and conquer. Only the enemy shows you where you are weak. Only the enemy tells you where he is strong. And the rules of the game are what you can do to him and what you can stop him from doing to you. I am your enemy from now on."
- "From now on, I am your teacher." - Mazer Rackham to Ender
- "There is no teacher but the enemy."
- "Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man stupid and blind in the eyes."
- "I am your enemy, the first one you've ever had who was smarter than you. There is no teacher but the enemy. No one but the enemy will ever tell you what the enemy is going to do. No one but the enemy will ever teach you how to destroy and conquer. Only the enemy shows you where you are weak. Only the enemy tells you when he is strong. And the rules of the game are what you can do to him and what you can stop him from doing to you. I am your enemy from now on. From now on, I am your teacher."
- "You were reckless, brilliant and young."
- "Rackham nodded. Then he reached inside his jacket and took out a pen and laid it on the table. "What's that?" asked Han Tzu." The mandate of heaven," said Rackham." -Shadow of the Giant
