Revenge of the Sith/Quotes
War! The Republic is crumbling under attacks by the ruthless Sith Lord, Count Dooku. There are heroes on both sides. Evil is everywhere.
In a stunning move, the fiendish droid leader, General Grievous, has swept into the Republic capital and kidnapped Chancellor Palpatine, leader of the Galactic Senate.
As the Separatist Droid Army attempts to flee the besieged capital with their valuable hostage, two Jedi Knights lead a desperate mission to rescue the captive Chancellor...
Palpatine: Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Plagueis The Wise?
Anakin: No?
Palpatine: I thought not. It’s not a story the Jedi would tell you. It’s a Sith legend. Darth Plagueis was a Dark Lord of the Sith, so powerful and so wise he could use the Force to influence the midichlorians to create life… He had such a knowledge of the dark side, he could even keep the ones he cared about from dying.
Anakin: He could actually save people from death?
Palpatine: The dark side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural.
Anakin: What happened to him?
Palpatine: He became so powerful… the only thing he was afraid of was losing his power, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught his apprentice everything he knew, then his apprentice killed him in his sleep. Ironic. He could save others from death, but not himself.
Anakin: Is it possible to learn this power?
Palpatine: Not from a Jedi.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: It's over, Anakin! I have the high ground!
Anakin Skywalker: You underestimate my power!
Obi-Wan Kenobi: Don't try it.
And they have those flashlight thingies, and Jedi powers of mind control, and they can move things, so they're telekinetic, and they hover on their jet saucers over molten lava, so they can jump and fly around like they're in Cirque du Soleil. But what gives one Jedi knight the edge over the other, huh? The ultimate advantage? They stand on a mound of dirt and declare, 'You can't win; I've got the high ground.' He's four feet up a little slope, and that wipes out all the other guy's powers to fly, jump around, move things around with his brain, use his flashlight thingy?—Luke, Gilmore Girls
"You were the chosen one! It was said that you would destroy the Sith, not join them!
You were to bring balance to the Force, not leave it in darkness!"—Obi-Wan Kenobi, after defeating Anakin Skywalker
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!—Darth Vader
The dark is generous, and it is patient, and it always wins—but in the heart of its strength lies weakness: one lone candle is enough to hold it back. Love is more than a candle. Love can ignite the stars.
