In my book, experience outranks everything.

I used to believe that being a good soldier meant doing everything they told you. That's how they engineered us. But we're not droids. We're not programmed. You have to learn to make your own decisions.

Today we fight for more than the Republic. Today we fight for all our brothers back home.

This ship is going down and those soldiers, my brothers, are willing to die and take you and me along with them.

No longer certain, that one ever does win a war, I am. For in fighting the battles, the bloodshed, already lost we have.

I wish I was good at something other than war.

Captain Tarkin: "It's when things do not go as planned that concerns me. What then?"
Anakin Skywalker: "It's when things don't go as planned that we Jedi are at our best. Trust me."

Anakin Skywalker: "Then let me remind you... we rescued you back there and I reserve my trust for those who understand gratitude, Captain Tarkin."

Unfortunately, war tends to distort our point of view. If we sacrifice our code, even for victory, we may lose that which is most important, our honor.

Mace Windu: "What is Skywalker doing?"
Obi-Wan Kenobi: "It appears to be one of Anakin's improvised plans."
Mace Windu: "How can it be a plan if it's improvised?"
Obi-Wan Kenobi: "Not to worry. Just catch them when they fall."
Captain Rex: "A lot of the General's plans involve falling."

Anakin Skywalker: "You're not kidding, little buddy. I don't like the feel of this place either."
Mace Windu: "Your astromech is programmed to feel?"
Anakin Skywalker: "R2 is kind of a special case. He's got a lot of personality, that's all."

My name is General Mace Windu of the Jedi Order. At this point of the Clone War, I have dismantled and destroyed over 100,000 of you Type One Battle Droids. I'm giving you an opportunity to peacefully lay down your weapons so that you may be reprogrammed to serve a better purpose than spreading the mindless violence and chaos, which you have inflicted upon the galaxy.

Cad Bane at your service. I'll take on any job... for the right price.

Young Skywalker. Not so impressive without your lightsaber are you, Jedi?

Bo-Katan: "Maul must really want you dead."
Obi-Wan: "You have no idea."

Ahsoka: "Impressive. I suspect even Maul couldn't get out of there."
Bo-Katan: "A relic of a bygone era when Mandalorians had reason to imprison you Force-wielding maniacs."

We're looking forward to taking the fight to those scrappin' droids.

Ahsoka: "Rex? Are you okay?"
Rex: "Yeah, kid. I'm okay. I'm sorry for what happened earlier. I almost killed you."
Ahsoka: "How widespread is this?"
Rex: "Ahsoka, it's all of us. The entire Grand Army of the Republic has been ordered to hunt down and destroy the Jedi Knights."

I accept this sword for my sister, for my clan, and for all of Mandalore.

Anakin: "With any luck, this will be over soon."
Ahsoka: "Master Kenobi always said there's no such thing as luck."
Anakin: "Good thing I taught you otherwise."

I have other things to attend to other than your incompetence.

In my life, when you find people who need your help, you help them. No matter what.

I have to sort this out on my own, without the Council and without you.

Ahsoka: "I'm Master Skywalker's Padawan. The name's Ahsoka Tano."
Rex: "Sir, I thought you said you'd never have a Padawan."
Anakin: "There's been a mix-up. The youngling isn't with me."
Ahsoka: "Stop calling me that! You're stuck with me, Skyguy."

You're reckless, little one. You never would have made it as Obi-Wan's Padawan. But you might make it as mine.

It takes strength to resist the dark side. Only the weak embrace it.

You must be General Grievous. He's just another tinny, boys. Let's scrap him like the rest.

Don't you think I'm just a little overqualified for this?

I'm at your service, Master Kenobi, but I'm afraid I've actually been assigned to Master Skywalker.

The war left its scars on all of us.

If you're not with me, then you're my enemy.

Qui-Gon hasn't given up on the fact that Jedi are supposed to care and love and that that's not a bad thing. The rest of the Jedi are so detached and they've become so political that they've really lost their way and Yoda starts to see that in the second film.

Fear is the path to the Dark Side. Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate; hate leads to suffering.
