Episode IV: A New Hope
You must do what you feel is right, of course.
― Obi-Wan Kenobi
The circle is now complete. When I left you, I was but the learner; now I am the master.
― Darth Vader
May the Force be with you.
― Han Solo
You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy.
― Obi-Wan Kenobi
If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine.
― Obi-Wan Kenobi
Don't be too proud of this technological terror you've constructed. The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant next to the power of the Force.
― Darth Vader
Who's the more foolish, the fool or the fool who follows him?
― Obi-Wan Kenobi
In my experience, there's no such thing as luck.
― Obi-Wan Kenobi
Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back
Do... or do not. There is no try.
― Yoda
Never tell me the odds.
― Han Solo
Size matters not. Look at me. Judge me by my size, do you? Hmm? Hmm. And well you should not. For my ally is the Force, and a powerful ally it is. Life creates it, makes it grow. Its energy surrounds us and binds us. Luminous beings are we, not this crude matter. You must feel the Force around you; here, between you, me, the tree, the rock, everywhere, yes. Even between the land and the ship.
― Yoda
Some day you're gonna be wrong, I just hope I'm there to see it.
― Princess Leia
You must unlearn what you have learned.
― Yoda
Decide you must, how to serve them best. If you leave now, help them you could; but you would destroy all for which they have fought, and suffered.
― Yoda
Impressive. Most impressive. Obi-Wan has taught you well. You have controlled your fear. Now, release your anger. Only your hatred can destroy me.
― Darth Vader
Surrender is a perfectly acceptable alternative in extreme circumstances!
― C-3PO
You will know... when you are calm, at peace, passive. A Jedi uses the Force for knowledge and defense, NEVER for attack.
― Yoda
Either shut him up or shut him down!
― Han Solo
Episode VI: Return of the Jedi
Ah, strong am I with the Force, but not that strong. Twilight is upon me, and soon, night must fall. That is the way of things. The way of the Force.
― Yoda
You want this, don't you? The hate is swelling in you now. Take your Jedi weapon. Use it. I am unarmed. Strike me down with it. Give in to your anger. With each passing moment you make yourself more my servant.
― The Emperor
It is unavoidable. It is your destiny. You, like your father, are now mine.
― The Emperor
Luke, you're going to find that many of the truths we cling to depend greatly on our own point of view.
― Obi-Wan Kenobi
You couldn't bring yourself to kill me before and I don't believe you'll destroy me now.
― Luke
You underestimate the power of the Dark Side. If you will not fight, then you will meet your destiny.
― Darth Vader
Your overconfidence is your weakness.
― Luke
No. Not yet. One thing remains. Vader. You must confront Vader. Then, only then, a Jedi will you be. And confront him you will.
― Yoda
Nothing... can stop that now. Just for once... let me... look on you with my own eyes.
― Darth Vader
You are unwise to lower your defenses!
― Darth Vader
Good. Use your aggressive feelings, boy. Let the hate flow through you.
― The Emperor
Episode I: The Phantom Menace
Mom, you said that the biggest problem in the universe is no one helps each other.
― Anakin
Remember: Your focus determines your reality.
― Qui-Gon Jinn
You can't stop change any more than you can stop the suns from setting.
― Shmi Skywalker
I can only protect you, I cannot fight a war for you.
― Qui-Gon Jinn
Remember, concentrate on the moment. Feel, don't think. Trust your instincts.
― Qui-Gon Jinn
Always two there are, no more, no less. A master and an apprentice.
― Yoda
Hard to see, the dark side is. We must investigate further before drawing a conclusion to the identity of your adversary.
― Yoda
Episode II: Attack of the Clones
Why do I get the feeling you're going to be the death of me?
― Obi-Wan
From the moment I met you, all those years ago, not a day has gone by when I haven't thought of you. And now that I'm with you again... I'm in agony. The closer I get to you, the worse it gets. The thought of not being with you- I can't breathe. I'm haunted by the kiss that you should never have given me. My heart is beating... hoping that kiss will not become a scar. You are in my very soul, tormenting me... what can I do?- I will do anything you ask ... if you are suffering as much as I am, please, tell me.
― Anakin
Attachment is forbidden. Possession is forbidden. Compassion, which I would define as unconditional love, is essential to a Jedi's life. So you might say, that we are encouraged to love.
― Anakin
Truly wonderful, the mind of a child is.
― Yoda
You don't need guidance, Anakin. In time, you will learn to trust your feelings. Then, you will be invincible. I have said it many times, you are the most gifted Jedi I have ever met.
― Palpatine
I'm not afraid to die. I've been dying a little bit each day since you came back into my life.
― Padmé
No you listen! We live in a real world, come back to it. You're studying to become a Jedi, I'm... I'm a senator. If you follow your thoughts through to conclusion, it will take us to a place we cannot go, regardless of the way we feel about each other.
― Padmé
You're asking me to be rational. That is something that I know I cannot do. Believe me, I wish I could just wish away my feelings, but I can't.
― Anakin
Be mindful of your thoughts, Anakin, they betray you.
― Obi-Wan
I think our lives are about to be destroyed anyway. I truly... deeply... love you and before we die I want you to know.
― Padmé
To be angry is to be human.
― Padmé
I'm just a simple man, trying to make my way in the universe.
― Jango Fett
When I'm around you, my mind is no longer my own.
― Anakin
All mentors have a way of seeing more of our faults than we would like. It's the only way we grow.
― Padmé
Sometimes there are things no one can fix.
― Padmé
Episode III - Revenge of the Sith
The fear of loss is a path to the dark side.
― Yoda
Good is a point of view, Anakin.
― Supreme Chancellor
Death is a natural part of life. Rejoice for those around you who transform into the Force. Mourn them do not. Miss them do not. Attachment leads to jealousy. The shadow of greed that is.
― Yoda
Train yourself to let go... of everything you fear to lose.
― Yoda
I know you would. I can feel your anger. It give you focus... makes you stronger.
― Supreme Chancellor
To a dark place this line of thought will carry us. Great care we must take.
― Yoda
I sense great fear in you, Skywalker. You have hate. You have anger. But you don't use them.
The Star Wars film saga has had a huge impact on the cultures across the world. In fact, the 2001 census reported a serious number of people who claimed to belong to the Jedi religion in the UK. The impact of this film series is truly far reaching. Maybe, only a little of it can ever be put in words. However, what remains within our reach are the incredible words that the films have left us with. And of course, the promise of its Force to remain with us for an eternity.― Count Dooku
