The StarWars.com 10: Best Yoda Quotes | StarWars.com StarWars.com Team Welcome to The StarWars.com 10, a feature where StarWars.com’s editorial staff huddles to discuss — in a committee — various topics relating to a galaxy far, far away. Today we’re looking at the most memorable quotes from the Emperor’s “little green friend.” Yoda has become one of the biggest icons of Star Wars since his introduction in The Empire Strikes Back — in fact, he won this year’s This Is Madness tournament . While he’s popular for various reasons — his design, his power — it’s his personality and words of wisdom (often in his backwards speak) that resonate the most. For this list, we looked at Yoda’s lines from the Star Wars films, ranking them on quotability, relevance to Yoda as a character, and overall significance to the saga. 10. “When nine hundred years old you reach, look as good you will not.” Return of the Jedi Yoda could be stern and strict, but he was also playful. When Luke returns to complete his training in Return of the Jedi, he finds that Yoda’s health has deteriorated.

This classic line shows Yoda’s sense of humor, but also adds a layer to his ability as a teacher: he doesn’t want his student to feel burdened with the fact he’s dying. 9. “Truly wonderful, the mind of a child is.” Attack of the Clones In Attack of the Clones, Obi-Wan is trying to locate the planet Kamino, which has been erased from all records in the Jedi Archives. When he approaches Yoda — in the middle of a lightsaber class with younglings — for help, Yoda turns to the students. And one of them nails it, saying that it’s missing because someone erased it. Yoda’s response, “Truly wonderful, the mind of a child is,” shows that despite all he’s seen, he doesn’t exclude the thoughts and opinions of others, no matter their size or age, and that teachers can still learn from their students. 8. “That is why you fail.” The Empire Strikes Back This is Yoda being brutally honest with Luke, who breathlessly says, “I don’t believe it,” after his Master raises an X-wing from the Dagobah swamp.

It’s a definitive statement that comes from Yoda’s years and years of experience as a Jedi and a teacher, and it cuts through both to Luke and the audience. 7. “A Jedi uses the Force for knowledge and defense, never for attack.” The Empire Strikes Back One of Yoda’s key teachings to Luke on Dagobah, “A Jedi uses the Force for knowledge and defense, never for attack,” is core to the Jedi way and to the Star Wars saga. It’s hard to understand on its own — after all, Jedi have weapons and they use them frequently. But in Return of the Jedi, when Luke throws his lightsaber away instead of making the killing blow to his father, we see what Yoda meant. In that moment, Luke becomes a true Jedi, and it all goes back to this line. 6. “Adventure. Excitement. A Jedi craves not these things.” The Empire Strikes Back After Luke comes to Dagobah, Yoda initially withholds his true identity. He’s trying to get a sense of who Luke is as a person; Yoda understands that there’s a lot at risk in training Luke to be a Jedi, especially considering what happened with his father.

And Yoda is not impressed — Luke is impatient and selfish. With “Adventure. Excitement. A Jedi craves not these things,” the Jedi Master makes clear that Luke must understand the significance and meaning of the journey he thinks he wants to make. It’s an important lesson for Luke and for audiences, because when Luke faces Vader at the film’s climax, we see the stakes involved in the life of a Jedi. 5. “Judge me by my size, do you?” The Empire Strikes Back One of Yoda’s instructions to Luke is to “unlearn what you have learned” (another great line!). When Luke is tasked with raising his X-wing from the swamp, he complains that it’s too big, which frustrates Yoda — size matters not when it comes to the Force and to life. What’s amazing about this quote is that when Yoda says it, it’s not funny. It rings true, you believe him, and you see that he makes no excuses for himself — and does not want to hear any from his students. 4.

“Fear is the path to the dark side…fear leads to anger…anger leads to hate…hate leads to suffering.” The Phantom Menace This line became instantly memorable when it was featured in the trailer for The Phantom Menace, and it resonates as the core of Anakin Skywalker’s downfall. Yoda says this while evaluating a young Anakin for training, and he’s proven right. Ultimately, it’s a basic truth that Yoda conveys in a captivating way. 3. “Wars not make one great.” The Empire Strikes Back Another line that works both in-context (“I’m looking for a great warrior,” Luke says to Yoda, which prompts this smart response) and standalone. It all filters into one of Yoda’s great lessons: aggression and violence do not make a Jedi or a person strong. The meaning behind this quote is strengthened when one sees that Yoda knows the reality of war and battle in the prequel era. 2. “Luminous beings are we…not this crude matter.” The Empire Strikes Back Dave Filoni, supervising director of Star Wars: The Clone Wars and executive producer of Star Wars Rebels, spoke to StarWars.com about the Sith.

He said, “There’s such a big fear of death because they try to hold onto life. And I think that’s why they’re willing to basically mutilate themselves and live these cybernetic half-human lives.” Yoda’s lesson with this quote reflects the exact opposite of this mentality, and it’s essential to the saga. It speaks to the underlying difference between Jedi and Sith: being completely selfless, and recognizing that the Force binds all life and creation together. 1. “Do. Or do not. There is no try.” The Empire Strikes Back Yoda’s most memorable quote, bar none, and one of the greatest in all of Star Wars. This is another line from the X-wing sequence on Dagobah, and are the last instructions the Jedi Master gives Luke before he attempts to raise his fighter from the swamp. Within the scene, it was a lightning bolt of dialogue, another great nugget of undeniable wisdom that teaches Luke to have a more serious mind. Yoda had consistently tried to teach Luke to focus on the present, and essentially, to grow up. In this moment, with these words, he makes it clear.

Outside of the film, the line has become a modern slogan — a reminder to commit oneself to something completely, win or lose. That’s it. What do you think? Did we nail it? Are we out of our minds?

Uploaded on Sep 2, 2011 Luke has given up before he begun by doubting his own abilities and not entrusting himself into the force and the guidance of his master. Karate Kid - Squish Like Grape Category Do or do not, there is no try Do or do not, there is no try By glblguy One of my favorite life quotes isn’t from Mark Twain, Buddha, Abraham Lincoln or any other famous historical human.

Instead, it’s from a little green guy who lives on a planet named Degobah . While this little green guy named Yoda from the Star Wars movies is full of awesome and inspiring quotes, my favorite is: Do or do not, there is no try. Simple words yes, but powerful meaning they have, hmmm? Okay, I’ll stop talking like Yoda . Seriously it’s a great quote and one that my children can quickly quote as well, as I constantly remind them of it every single time they say “I’m trying”. How often in regard to your personal finances have you said “But I’m trying?” Generally that statement is proceeded with some type of statement like: “I’m not budgeting like I should…“, “I still use my credit cards…“, or “I can’t seem to keep any savings…” But I’m trying… Stop trying! Time to do or do not! If you’re guilty of making these or similar statements, stop trying! The time has come to take control of your financial situation and do or do not. In my opinion, trying is an excuse that makes people feel better about not doing something they know they should be doing.

Dedicate yourself 100% and do what you’ve been trying to do or stop trying to do it. I truely believe that we can accomplish anything we set our minds too, it all boils down to how much effort we want to put towards it. I truely believe that regardless of how much you make that you can live on a budget, you can save, and you can be debt free. Doing so just requires commitment and sacrifice. Commitment is easy, sacrifice is hard. Debt Maybe you have a large (or even small) amount of debt and you’ve been trying to make a dent in it. Stop trying and make it happen. Here’s how: Make a commitment to yourself to stop using debt. Recognize that you are the problem , nobody else. Cut up your cards. Jesus said we should separate ourselves from our sins as far as the east is from the west. Why leave temptation laying around. Cut up your credit cards . You won’t miss them, I promise. We cut ours up two years ago and haven’t missed them once. Start a debt snowball. Use the proven process of a debt snowball to pay off your debt.

Most all personal finance experts will agree a debt snowball is the most effective way to get out of debt. Add s nowflaking to make it even more effective. Saving Have you been trying to save money, but just can’t? Time to stop trying. Head over to ING Direct and create an orange savings account. Link it to your primary checking account and set-up an automatic withdrawal . If you’re in debt, save a $1000-$2000 dollar emergency fund , and then stop saving. Begin applying the rest to debt to your debt snowball. Once you make your savings automatic, there is not more trying, the saving just happens. Making your savings automatic removes you from the equation. Budget Have you been trying to budget? Today is the the day to stop trying. Start budgeting 100% right now. Download my free budget spreadsheet or better yet purchase a copy of YNAB Pro and spent an hour or so setting up your initial budget. Start following it today. Don’t have the money in your budget to buy something? Don’t buy it. Have an unexpected and unplanned expense? Use your emergency fund (btw a new plasma TV isn’t an unexpected expense).

Create a budget today and start controlling your money rather than it controlling you. What? Budgets are for weak or geeky financial types? Wrong. Every successful corporation I have ever worked for has a budget. Read the Millionaire Next Door and you’ll find that even rich people live on budgets. Make a commitment Is there something you’ve been trying to do for a while but you just can’t seem to make it happen? Make a commitment to yourself today to stop trying and do or do not. Determine what it is that’s keeping you from doing and eliminate it. Even better, share your commitment with someone or share it below via a comment. When you make a commitment to others, it makes you significantly more likely to go through with it. That’s referred to as accountability. What have you been trying to do? Make a commitment to do or do not today. Add a comment and make your commitment public. No related posts. Did you enjoy this article?

(Academic Writing and The Force) Search for: Do. Or Do Not. There Is No Try. (Academic Writing and The Force) Posted on by Karen The best piece of advice about writing that I got as a graduate student came from my external Ph.D. committee member, a full professor in the English department. A poet and a romantic and undoubtedly a former or current pot smoker, he was much more up on his spiritual musings and pop culture references than were my anthro committee members, a rather dreary lot. His advice was always entertaining (when it wasn’t ill-informed and infuriating, but that’s a topic for another post). I was in his office one day to show show him my latest conference paper. My professor began to read the first page, then paused, looked up with a bemused smile, and said, “Do or do not. There is no try.” “Do or do not. There is no try.” The immortal words of Yoda to the young Skywalker. But why Yoda? Why then?

Because I’d done that thing that young academics all too often do. I’d hedged my bets. The paper, a pretty standard effort, contained on its first page the sentence, “This paper will attempt to show that Japanese women are traveling abroad in increasing numbers in order to effect a quasi-feminist critique of unequal gender relations at home.” How many of you reading this would even have thought twice about that sentence? What is it about young academics (and not only young ones, I’d hasten to add) that compels them to frame their scholarly efforts as “attempts”? Are they really so insecure? Is the outcome really that much in doubt? Think about how much academic writing depends on formulations like: In this research I hope to prove that… Through such an analysis I will try to show that…. I believe that in making this argument I may be able to demonstrate that… Hope? Try? Believe? Why are scholars embarking on their studies with so much doubt? And so little confidence? Perhaps you will say that these turns of phrase are simply writing conventions, and have no literal meaning. But why use them at all? If you did the research, and reached your conclusions, then you stand by them, do you not?

Efforts to modulate or soften them with hedging phrases merely cast doubt on the legitimacy of your research itself. If you couldn’t actually prove the thing, then really, you have no business saying that you did. Release your mind to go all the way. Own your findings. Claim your ground. Take every sentence where you find these power-sucking words, and remove them. In their place, write: In this research I will prove that… Through such an analysis I will show that…. In making this argument I will be able to demonstrate that… If you are one of the multitudes of graduate students and young academics who have come to unconsciously depend on such phrases, and I’ll bet you are, stop. They do nothing for you. They are simply one more way that junior people, and women in particular, bend over backward to express deference and submission in their writing practices. And if you’re aiming for a career in academia, those habits of deference and submission that you absorbed in graduate school need to go. Stat. In their place: Your power, expressed. Listen to the words of Yoda: “You must unlearn what you have learned… Try not! And may The Force be with you.

Yoda (Character) - Quotes Yoda (Character) Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back (1980) Yoda : Ready are you? What know you of ready? For eight hundred years have I trained Jedi. My own counsel will I keep on who is to be trained. A Jedi must have the deepest commitment, the most serious mind. This one a long time have I watched. All his life has he looked away... to the future, to the horizon. Never his mind on where he was. Hmm?

What he was doing. Hmph! Adventure. Heh! Excitement. Heh! A Jedi craves not these things. You are reckless! Yoda : Stopped they must be; on this all depends. Only a fully trained Jedi Knight, with the Force as his ally, will conquer Vader and his Emperor. If you end your training now - if you choose the quick and easy path as Vader did - you will become an agent of evil. Luke : And sacrifice Han and Leia? Yoda : If you honor what they fight for? Yes. Obi-Wan : If you choose to face Vader, you will do it alone. I cannot interfere. Luke : I understand. R2? Fire up the converters. Obi-Wan : Luke! Don't give in to hate. That leads to the Dark Side. Yoda : Strong is Vader. Mind what you have learned. Save you it can. Luke : I will. And I'll return, I promise. [Luke has seen a vision of Han, Leia and Chewie being tortured in Cloud City] Luke : I saw - I saw a city in the clouds. Yoda : [nods] Friends you have there. Luke : They were in pain...

Yoda : It is the future you see. [pause] Luke : Will they die? Yoda : [closes his eyes for a moment] Difficult to see. Always in motion is the future. Luke : I've got to go to them. 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 : You must unlearn what you have learned. Luke : I want my lamp back. I'm gonna need it to get out of this slimy mudhole. Yoda : Mudhole? Slimy? My home this is! [Luke can't levitate his X-Wing out of the bog] Luke : I can't. It's too big. Yoda : 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 : I am wondering, why are you here? Luke : I'm looking for someone. Yoda : Looking? Found someone, you have, I would say, hmmm? [Luke whips around and pulls out his blaster in defense] Luke : Like we're being watched. Yoda : Away put your weapon. I mean you no harm. Yoda : Why wish you become Jedi? Luke : Well, mostly because of my father, I guess. Yoda : Ahh... father. Powerful Jedi was he. Powerful Jedi. Luke : [suspcious] Oh, come on! How can you know my father? You don't even know who I am. Oh, I don't even know what I'm doing here! We're wasting our time! Yoda : [Looking away from Luke] I cannot teach him. The boy has no patience. Obi-Wan : [voice-over] He will learn patience. Yoda : Much anger in him... like his father.

Obi-Wan : [voice] Was I any different when you taught me? Yoda : Yes, run! Yes, a Jedi's strength flows from the Force. But beware of the dark side.

You... will... be. [as Luke leaves before completing his training] Yoda : Told you I did. Reckless is he. Now, matters are worse.

Obi-Wan : That boy is our last hope. Yoda : No. There is another. Luke : How far away is Yoda? Will it take us long to get there? Yoda : Not far. Yoda not far. Patience. Soon you will be with him. Luke : There's something not right here... I feel cold. Death. Yoda : [points to a cave opening beneath a large tree] That place... is strong with the dark side of the Force. A domain of evil it is. In you must go. Luke : What's in there? Yoda : Only what you take with you. Yoda : Your weapons, you will not need them. [Luke's ship sinks into the mud] Luke : We'll never get it out now!

Yoda : Track down this bounty hunter, you must, Obi-Wan. Yoda : Until caught this killer is, our judgment she must respect. Yoda : The council is confident in its decision, Obi-Wan. Mace Windu : The boy has exceptional skills.

Obi-Wan : But he still has much to learn, Master. His abilities have made him... well arrogant. Yoda : Yes. Yes. A flaw more and more common among Jedi. Too sure of themselves they are. Even the older, more experienced ones. Yoda : Dangerous and disturbing this puzzle is. Only a Jedi could have erased those files. But who, and why, harder to answer. Meditate on this I will. Yoda : Do not assume anything Obi-Wan. Clear your mind must be if you are to discover the real villains behind this plot. Yoda : Bring him here. Question him we will. Yoda : Around the survivors a perimeter create. Yoda : If Dooku escapes, rally more systems to his cause we will. Yoda : Concentrate all your fire on the nearest starship. Yoda : [Yoda is training children to be Jedi at the Jedi Temple. Obi-Wan comes in and explains he's looking for a planet] Mmm. Lost a planet, Master Obi-Wan has. How embarrassing. How embarrassing. Find it, we will try.

Obi-Wan : [Pointing to a spot in the star hologram] This is where it ought to be, but it isn't. Gravity is pulling all the stars in this area inward to this spot. There should be a star here, but there isn't. Yoda : Most interesting. Gravity's silhouette remains, but the star and all its planets have disappeared. How can this be? J.K. Burtola : [One of the children raises his hand] Because someone erased it from the archive memory. Jedi Bear Clan: [All of the children] That's right! Yes! That's what happened! Someone erased it! Mari Amithest : If the planet blew up, the gravity would go away. Yoda : Truly wonderful, the mind of a child is. Uncluttered. To the center of the pull of gravity go, and find your planet you will. Obi-Wan : But Master Yoda, who could have erased information from the archives? That's impossible, isn't it? Yoda : [Frowning] Much harder to answer, that question is. Yoda : Truly wonderful, the mind of a child is.

[last lines] Obi-Wan : I have to admit that without the clones, it would have not been a victory. Yoda : Victory? Victory you say? Master Obi-Wan, not victory. The shroud of the dark side has fallen. Begun the Clone War has. Yoda : Clear your mind must be, if you are to discover the real villains behind this plot. Yoda : Blind we are, of creation of this clone army we could not see. Mace Windu : I think it is time we inform the senate that our ability to use the force has diminished. Yoda : Only a Dark Lord of the Sith knows of our weakness. If informed the senate is, multiply our adversaries will. Palpatine : Master Yoda. Do you really think it will come to war? Yoda : The dark side clouds everything. Impossible to see the future is. Yoda : To the forward command center take me. Yoda : Powerful you have become Dooku, the dark side I sense in you. Count Dooku : I have become more powerful than any Jedi. Even you.

[Dooku shoots Sith lighting at Yoda who effortlessly deflects it away] Yoda : Much to learn, you still have. Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith (2005) Mace Windu : I sense a plot to destroy the Jedi. The Dark Side of the Force surrounds the Chancellor. Ki-Adi-Mundi : If he does not give up his emergency powers after the destruction of Grievous, then he must be forcibly removed from office. Mace Windu : It will be tricky. The Jedi Council will have to take control of the Senate to ensure a peaceful transition to a new goverment and a new leadership for the Republic. Yoda : Hmm. To a dark place this line of thought will carry us. Great care we must take. Darth Sidious : I have waited a long time for this moment, my little green friend. At last, the Jedi are no more. Yoda : Not if anything to say about it I have! [Yoda force flings Darth Sidious across the room and across his desk] Yoda : At an end your rule is, and not short enough was it. [in a panic, Darth Sidious leaps towards the door.

But Yoda leaps up and blocks his way] Yoda : [ignites his lightsaber] If so powerful you are... why leave? Darth Sidious : [ignites his lightsaber] You will not stop me! Darth Vader will become more powerful than either of us! Yoda : Faith in your new apprentice, misplaced may be. As is your faith in the dark side of the Force. Yoda : Good relations with the Wookiees, I have. Yoda : Allow this appointment lightly, the council does not. Disturbing is this move by Chancellor Palpatine. Anakin Skywalker : Forgive me master. [Obi-Wan Kenobi and Yoda are escaping the Jedi temple as Obi-Wan noticed the hologram center] Obi-Wan : Wait, Master. There is something I must know. Yoda : If into the security recordings you go, only pain will you find. Obi-Wan : I must know the truth, Master. [Obi-Wan watches the recordings of Jedi, even younglings, being slaughtered] Obi-Wan : It can't be... It can't be... Anakin Skywalker : The traitors have been taken care of, Lord Sidious.

Darth Sidious : Good... Good... you have done well, my apprentice. Now Lord Vader, go and bring peace to the Empire. Obi-Wan : [switches off the hologram] I can't watch any more. Yoda : Destroy the Sith we must. [Yoda has just fled a fight against Lord Sidious after losing] Yoda : Into exile, I must go. *Failed*, I have. Yoda : Premonitions, premonitions. These visions you have... Anakin Skywalker : They are of pain, suffering. Death. Yoda : Yourself you speak of, or someone you know? Yoda : Careful you must be when sensing the future Anakin. The fear of loss is a path to the dark side. Anakin Skywalker : I won't let these visions come true, Master Yoda. Yoda : 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. Anakin Skywalker : What must I do, Master Yoda? Yoda : Train yourself to let go... of everything you fear to lose.

Yoda : Destroy the Sith, we must. Yoda : Use your feelings, Obi-Wan, and find him, you will. Yoda : Twisted by the Dark Side, young Skywalker has become. The boy you trained, gone he is... Consumed by Darth Vader. [after Anakin is assigned by the Jedi to spy on Chancellor Palpatine] Obi-Wan Kenobi : Anakin did not take to his new assignment with much enthusiasm. Mace Windu : It's very dangerous, putting them together. I don't think the boy can handle it. I don't trust him. Obi-Wan Kenobi : With all due respect, Master, is he not the Chosen One? Is he not to destroy the Sith and bring balance to the Force? Yoda : Surprised? Darth Sidious : Your arrogance blinds you, Master Yoda. Now you will experience the full power of the Dark Side. [electrocutes Yoda with hands and laughs] Darth Sidious : I have waited a long time for this moment, my little green friend. [laughs more while Yoda gets up] Darth Sidious : The last of the Jedi are no more.

Yoda : Not if anything to say about it, I have! [throws Sidious back by using the Force] Yoda : That'll end your rule is. [Sidious gets up] Yoda : Not short enough it was. [Sidious jumps at the door to get out, but Yoda blocks it] Yoda : If so powerful you are... why leave? [ignites lightsaber] Darth Sidious : You will not stop me. Darth Vader will become more powerful that either of us! [ignites lightsaber] Yoda : Faith in your new apprentice, misplaced may be. [wields lightsaber] Yoda : As is you faith in the Dark Side of the Force. [fights Sidious] Yoda : Unexpected this is. And unfortunate. Luke : Unfortunate that I know the truth? Yoda : No! Unfortunate that you rushed to face him... that incomplete was your training. That... not ready for the burden were you. Luke : Master Yoda, you can't die. Yoda : Strong am I with the Force, but not that strong. Yoda : Soon will I rest, yes, forever sleep. Earned it I have. Luke : Master Yoda, you can't die.

Yoda : 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 : That face you make... look I so old to young eyes? Luke : No. Of course not. Yoda : I do. Yes, I do. Sick have I become, old and weak... When nine hundred years old *you* reach, look as good *you* will not, hmm? Yoda : Remember, a Jedi's strength flows from the Force. But beware. Anger, fear, aggression. The dark side are they. Once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny. Luke... Luke... do not... do not underestimate the powers of the Emperor or suffer your father's fate you will. Luke, when gone am I... the last of the Jedi will you be. Luke, the Force runs strong in your family. Pass on what you have learned, Luke. There is... another... Sky... walker.

[Yoda dies] "Star Wars: The Clone Wars: Ambush (#1.1)" (2008) Asajj Ventress : If Yoda is indeed the Jedi warrior you believe he is, let him prove it. Allow me to send my best troops to capture him. If he escapes, join the republic. But should my droids defeat Yoda, consider an alliance with the Separatists. King Katuunko : I did not request Yoda's presence here to test him in battle. Yoda : [via hologram] Accept the challenge I do, your Highness. Yoda : Smaller in number are we, but larger in mind. [chuckles] Yoda : Dark times to the galaxy have come. Many years have I waited for you. A Jedi you will be. Save the Galaxy you will. Stacey : [trying to work the lightsaber] Yeah, whatever, but I think you're hairdryer is broken. Stacey : [Ignites her lightsaber] Eww... Red? [hits a button and changes the colour to pink] Yoda : And now: attack me! Stacey : You're kidding, right?

No offence, little guy, but I can totally take you. Yoda : Take me you cannot, for my ally is the force. Stacey : OK, but you know you're like a ga-billion years old. Yoda : [yells] When my age you reach, look as good you will not. Stacey : [Stacy deactivates her lightsaber and throws it a Yoda's head] When my age you were look as good you didn't! Yoda : [about Stacy] Much anger in this one. "Star Wars: Clone Wars: Chapter 15 (#2.5)" (2004) Yoda : Very little time there is, Senator. Our only hope to rescue Jedi. To Ilum we must go. Now. Captain Typho : This is not a rescue ship. May I remind our Master Jedi we have a more pressing mission. Yoda : A slight detour. Jeopardize the mission, it will not. [waves his hand slightly] Captain Typho : A slight detour. Jeopardize the mission, it will not.

[Padmé looks at him in surprise, then smiles at Master Yoda] Yoda : Be put in danger, the senator will not. Captain Typho : Be put in danger, the senator will not. Yoda : Save the lives of Jedi, we must. Captain Typho : Save the lives of Jedi, we must. Padmé Amidala : Master Yoda, I am convinced. I will not require my captain's farther... persuasion. Captain Typho : [snaps out of it] Huh? Padmé Amidala : Master Yoda, I can't let you go off to attempt a rescue mission alone. Yoda : Yet alone I must be, for the rescue to succeed. Call you I will if assistance I require. [Kit Fisto informing the Jedi High Council about the loss of his former apprentice] Mace Windu : What about your former padawan? Kit Fisto : His heart was in the right place, but he tried to answer Grievouses power with his own. Yoda : To answer power with power the jedi way this is not, in this war a danger there is of losing who we are. Yoda : Step forward, Padawan.

Anakin Skywalker, by the right of the Council, by the will of the Force, dub thee I do, Jedi... [slices off Anakin's Padawan braid] Yoda : Knight of the Republic. [last lines] Clone Advisor : Three-Eight, get your squad under control! One commando is not worth jeopardizing an entire operation! Scorch : One commando? He's talking about my pod brother! Delta Three-Eight "Boss" : Hold on, hold on, Advisor. What do you mean, "an entire operation"? [Scorch turns away with an oath] Clone Advisor : Your team was the advance for a full-scale invasion. I had strict orders not to tell you. It was your intelligence, your recon, that made this possible. [the gunship rises above the treeline, revealing the invasion force in the sky] Scorch : Boss, look! It's the invasion force. Fixer : Taking the city was only the beginning. Clone Advisor : Yes, sir. Yes, I'll patch you right through. Listen up, Deltas.

[a holo appears] "Star Wars: The Clone Wars: The Lawless (#5.16)" (2013) Satine Kryze : [via a recorded transmission] This is a message for Obi-Wan Kenobi. I've lost Mandalore. My people have been massacred, and Almec is now the Prime Minister. I can't explain everything now, but Almec has the support of the crime families. Obi-Wan, I need your help. [transmission ends] Yoda : Your thoughts on this, Master Kenobi? Obi-Wan Kenobi : Satine has been at odds with the Death Watch for years. And according to a report from Padawan Tano, they're no longer in league with the Separatists. If there was a takeover on Mandalore, it was most likely an independent act caused by the Death Watch alone. Ki-Adi-Mundi : Without involvement from the Separatists, this is an internal affair for the Mandalorians. I'm afraid we cannot help. Obi-Wan Kenobi : We cannot just hand Mandalore over to these crime families and let Satine become a martyr.

Ki-Adi-Mundi : I'm afraid her decision to keep Mandalore neutral makes this situation... difficult. Yoda : Understand your feelings I do, Obi-Wan. But to take action, support from the Republic Senate we will need. Obi-Wan Kenobi : You know what the Senate will decide. They will not send aid to a neutral system. Yoda : At this time, nothing more can we do. Obi-Wan Kenobi : Master Yoda, you called for me? Yoda : Master Kenobi, show you something we must. Mace Windu : We have recovered surveillance footage of the massacre on Devaron. [Holographic images of Savage's attack on Devaron are shown] Obi-Wan Kenobi : Darth Maul alive? It can't be... I killed him myself. Yoda : Correct you are, Obi-Wan. A creature of the same species he is, from Dathomir. Obi-Wan Kenobi : Dathomir? The planet of the witches? I was under the impression that Darth Maul's home world was Iridonia. Mace Windu : Dathomir was the planet where Maul was raised.

Iridonia is where the rest of the males of the species dwell. Yoda : Travel to Dathomir, you must. Find the source of the threat, you will. Do. Or do not. There is no try.
