Star Wars: The Clone Wars (season 1)

season of television series

The following is a list of quotes from the first season of Star Wars: The Clone Wars.

Ambush edit

Great leaders inspire greatness in others.

Ventress: Find Master Yoda.
Battle Droid: Uh... What does he look like?
Ventress: He'll be the small, shriveled, green one. (raises her voice and brings out her lightsaber) WITH THE LIGHTSABER!
Battle Droid: Small, huh? Don't worry, supreme leader. We'll take care of him.

Lieutenant Thire: Those tanks are too big to follow.
Yoda: See? See? Size is not everything, hmm? Smaller in number are we, but larger in mind. (giggles)
Jek: Do you have any idea what the general was talking about?
Rys: How should I know? There's no figurin' a Jedi Master.

Lieutenant Thire: Sir, the rendezvous point is that way.
Yoda: As is our enemy. To reach our goal, a straight path we will not follow.

Yoda: Greet them I will.
Lieutenant Thire: General, you don't plan to take that whole column by yourself?
Yoda: (giggles) Have you three I do! Outnumbered are they. Know the time to help me you will.

Yoda: Come. Sit. Your helmets, remove them. Your faces I wish to see.
(Thire, Rys and Jek remove their helmets)
Lieutenant Thire: There's not much to look at here, sir. We all share the same face.
Yoda: Deceive you, eyes can. In the force, very different each one of you are. Rys, always focused on the enemy, are you. For inspiration, look to yourself, and those beside you. Jek, concerned about weapons you are. Weapons do not win battles. Your mind, powerful it is. Out-think the droids, you can. Thire, rush not into fights, long is the war, only by surviving it, will you prevail. Clones you may be, but the force resides in all life forms. Use it you can, to quiet your mind.

Jek: Okay, clankers, SUCK LASER!!!!!

Commander 224 Battle droid: Supreme leader, we found the Jedi.
Asajj Ventress: Excellent. Where is he?
Commander 224 Battle droid: He's just sitting here in front of our tanks.
Asajj Ventress: Shoot him! Shoot him now!
Commander 224 Battle droid: (to troops) Quickly, ready, aim, fire! Fire!

Battle Droid Commander: What a terrible shot.
Battle Droid: Ah, well, it's my programming.

Count Dooku: I sense you are one who respects strength, Your Highness. Our droid armies outnumber the Republic clones 100 to 1.
King Katuunko: Perhaps, but I have heard that a single Jedi equals 100 battle droids.

King Katuunko: (about Yoda's supposed surrender and the subsequent battle) That's a lot of smoke for a surrender.
Asajj Ventress: (into hologram) Report, what's going on down there? 224, come in! (another battle droid shows up on the hologram) Where is 224?!
Battle droid: Destroyed, supreme leader. The Jedi has overrun our position and-- (cut down by Yoda) AAAH!!!
King Katuunko: I think all of those stories about the Jedi are true.
Asajj Ventress: The fight isn't over yet, majesty. (presses button to unleash Droidekas)

King Katuunko: You were right, Count Dooku. One Jedi is not worth a hundred battle droids... more like a thousand! I'm sorry, but I will be joining the Republic.
Count Dooku: I urge you to reconsider, Wise King. I promise you won't regret it.
King Katuunko: Your agent also promised me Yoda would get a fair fight. I will not deal with those who break their words.
Count Dooku: So be it. Perhaps our negotiations will be more fruitful with your successor. Ventress, KILL HIM!

Yoda: In the end, cowards are those who follow the dark side.
Count Dooku: It's a pity I wasn't there in person, my old master.
Yoda: A pity indeed, my fallen apprentice.

Rising Malevolence edit

Belief is not a matter of choice, but of conviction.

Ahsoka Tano: Wait! Just because there hasn't been any survivors before, doesn't mean there won't be any this time.
Chancellor Palpatine: (to Anakin) Boldly spoken for one so young.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: She is learning from Anakin.
Anakin Skywalker: Excuse my Padawan. We will deploy as you have instructed, Master. (after the holotransmission is dismissed, he, in his shock, turns to her) Ahsoka!
Ahsoka Tano: If anyone could survive, Master Plo could. I don't understand why--
Anakin Skywalker: What you don't understand is Jedi protocol or your place, my young Padawan. (Admiral Wulff Yularen enters) Admiral, we'll split up our ships to maximize our defense area. I'll scout ahead for enemy activity.
Wulff Yularen: Isn't that risky, with the mystery weapon out there?
Anakin Skywalker: It might be, but I know you won't argue my orders. Come on, Snips.

Obi-Wan Kenobi: Actually, I just received word that Anakin has found the remains of Master Plo's fleet and is searching the debris for survivors.
Chancellor Palpatine: On whose authority has he done this?
Obi-Wan Kenobi: His own, I'm afraid.

(Meanwhile out in space...)
Plo Koon: Sergeant, why are you so certain no one is coming?
Sinker: We're just clones, sir. We're meant to be expendable.
Plo Koon: Not to me.

(In the Twilight, Anakin and Ahsoka are talking.)
Ahsoka Tano: Master, I should tell you why I spoke up before.
Anakin Skywalker: You don't have to explain anything.
(Later in the Twilight all is silent, until Ahsoka breaks the silence)
Ahsoka Tano: So it's only okay when you don’t do what the Council says!
Anakin Skywalker: Doing what the Jedi Council says, that's one thing. How we go about doing it, that's another. That's what I'm trying to teach you, my young Padawan!

(In the Twilight)
Ahsoka Tano: So you always meant to come out here for survivors?
Anakin Skywalker: Lives are in danger, Ahsoka. We can't just turn our backs on them.
Ahsoka Tano: That's what I just said back in the briefing room.
Anakin Skywalker: I know, but the way you said it was wrong.

Plo Koon: When you ask for trouble, you should not be surprised when it finds you.

Commander Wolffe: The air in here's getting a bit stale.
Sinker: Don't look at me; it's Boost, sir. He only takes a bath when he's on leave.

Sinker: Eat laser, clankers!

Obi-Wan Kenobi: Anakin, where are you?
Anakin Skywalker: Oh, hello, Master. Uh, we made a quick stop in the Abregado system.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: A rescue mission, I supposed. You had other orders.
Ahsoka Tano: It was my idea, Master Obi-Wan.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: Oh, I'm sure.

(In the Twilight, Ahsoka senses that Plo Koon is indeed alive along with 3 survivors)
Anakin Skywalker: Time to go, Ahsoka.
Ahsoka Tano: We have to stay!
Anakin Skywalker: Ahsoka, I want to believe Master Plo is alive, but-
Ahsoka Tano: I know he's alive! (takes the controls) I can sense it!
Anakin Skywalker: Ahsoka!
R2-D2: WHOA!!!!

Anakin Skywalker: How do you know Master Plo anyway?
Ahsoka Tano: He's one of my oldest friends. It was Master Plo who found me and brought me to the Temple, where I belonged. Now he's lost, so I thought maybe I could find him.

Plo Koon: Skywalker, it is time to make our report to the council.
Anakin Skywalker: Right...the council report. Come on, Ahsoka.
Ahsoka Tano: You want me there? I figured because of before-
Anakin Skywalker: Ahsoka, through it all, you never gave up. You did a great job. But if I'm getting in trouble for this, you're gonna share some of the blame, too. So come on. Let’s go.
Ahsoka Tano: Right beside you, Skyguy.

Shadow of Malevolence edit

Easy is the path to wisdom for those not blinded by ego.

Broadside: [reciting Shadow Squadron's motto] Minimal casualties, maximum effectiveness!

Ahsoka Tano: Which one's mine?
Anakin Skywalker: You're with me, you'll be my gunner. [Ahsoka looks at him in disappointment] Somebody's got to watch my back!
Ahsoka Tano: Broadside could do that. Besides, you have R2.
[R2-D2 whistles]
Anakin Skywalker: But I so enjoy your company, my Padawan.
Ahsoka Tano: Just admit it, you don't like my flying.
Anakin Skywalker: [starts to stutter nervously] No, I-No, it's not that. It's just, I- [sighs with disappointment]

Obi-Wan Kenobi: I hope you know what you're doing, Anakin.
Anakin Skywalker: Well, if I don't, I won't be around to hear the "I told you so."
Obi-Wan Kenobi: That's reassuring. Well, take your shortcut, and I’ll take the long way. But you better be there before I arrive.
Anakin Skywalker: I’ll be there, Obi-Wan.

[Neebray whines]
General Plo Koon: [shouting orders] Don't shoot or they'll panic!
Ahsoka Tano: They'll panic? I'm about to panic!
[Gold Squadron gets out of the shortcut]
Matchstick: There are so many of them!

[Ahsoka looks out the window to see a neebray opening his mouth]
Ahsoka Tano: That one looks hungry.
Anakin Skywalker: Nah, he's just smiling at you.

Plo Koon: Master Skywalker seems to inspire great confidence in his men.
Ahsoka Tano: He does lead by example.

Destroy Malevolence edit

A plan is only as good as those who see it through.

Obi-Wan Kenobi: That's your plan - just fly there, land, hope they don't spot us and walk in the door?
Anakin Skywalker: Basically.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: Oh, brilliant. Let's get going.

Battle droid 1: It sounded like a ship docking at one of the emergency airlocks.
Battle droid 2: You're circuits are loose. No one's crazy enough to do that.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: Anakin, you're crazy. Spinning is not flying.
Anakin Skywalker: But it's a good trick.

Luminara Unduli: Another bold strategy by Skywalker, I presume.
Ahsoka Tano: That's my Master.

Obi-Wan Kenobi: Where do you think you're going?
Anakin Skywalker: [about Padmé] Somebody has to save her skin.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: I thought you might say that.
Plo Koon: There he goes again, graving adventure and excitement.
Ahsoka Tano: You get used to it.

[after Anakin defeats some droids]
Padmé Amidala: Ever since I've known you, you've been playing with droids.
Anakin Skywalker: I used to put them together. Now, I only take them apart.

C-3PO: STOP ME, PLEEEEEAAAAAAASE!!!!!!!!!!

Obi-Wan Kenobi: Subtlety has never been one of your strong points, Anakin.
Anakin Skywalker: Everything I know I learned from you, Master.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: Oh, if only that were true.

C-3PO: I suggest we stay here and let Master Anakin find us.
[Anakin immediately appears next to him]
Anakin Skywalker: 3PO, what are you doing? Don't just stand there.

General Grievous: Hello there! General Kenobi, did you really think I would leave the hyperdrive unguarded?
Obi-Wan Kenobi: Anything is possible. You haven't exactly impressed me today.

[Malevolence crashes into a moon]
Obi-Wan Kenobi: I imagine you had something to do with that.
Anakin Skywalker: All part of the plan, Master.

Rookies edit

The best confidence builder is experience.

Obi-Wan Kenobi: They should have checked in from the Rishi station hours ago. It appears your captain follows orders as well as you do.
Anakin Skywalker: Hm, perhaps Cody is boring Captain Rex with standard procedures and protocol.

Captain Rex: Something's not right here.
Commander Cody: Well, good luck. I'm putting you in charge of this one.

Captain Rex: Hands above your heads! Take your sun bonnets off.
Echo: Uh, sir?
Captain Rex: Take them off! NOW!
[so they do; suddenly the Rishi eel bursts out of the ground, but Captain Rex blasts it in the eye]
Fives: Nice shot.
Captain Rex: The name's Rex, but you'll call me "Captain" or "sir".
Hevy, Echo and Fives: Sir, yes, sir!
Commander Cody: I'm Commander Cody, your new boss.
Fives: My designation is Trooper 27-5555, sir.
Hevy: We call him Fives. I'm Hevy. This is Echo.
Commander Cody: Where's your sergeant?
Echo: Dead, sir. We're all that's left.
Captain Rex: Looks like we got us a bunch of shinies, Commander.
Echo: Shinies, sir?
Captain Rex: That's right. Your armor, it's shiny and new, just like you.
Hevy: Sir, me and my batchers are trained and ready. We’ll take back our post, shiny or not.
Captain Rex: [smirking] There's hope for you yet, rookie.

Hevy: This one is mine. Ha!
Commander Cody: Big gun doesn't make a big man.

Captain Rex: All right, listen up. There's only one target of interest in this sector: Kamino. It's the closest thing we Clones have to a home. Today we fight for more than the Republic. Today we fight for all our brothers back home. Understood?
Hevy, Echo and Fives: Sir, yes sir!

[A mortally wounded Hevy crawls toward the Tibanna gas canisters]
Battle droid: Do we take prisoners?
Hevy: [last words] I... don't. [presses the detonator, destroying the base along with himself and the droids in it]

[The clones witness the destruction of the outpost]
Fives: Hevy always did hate that place.

General Grievous: I didn't tell them to blow up the station!
Battle Droid: But isn't it good that the base is destroyed?
General Grievous: Idiot! The Republic fleet! We're outgunned! Get us out of here!

Captain Rex: Congratulations. You’re not shinies anymore.
Echo: With all due respect, sir, we failed our mission. We don’t deserve this honor.
Commander Cody: No, if it weren't for you, the Republic wouldn't have learned of the Separatists' invasion until it was too late.
Captain Rex: You showed me something today. You're exactly the kind of men I need in the 501st.
Echo and Fives: Sir, yes, sir!

Downfall of a Droid edit

Trust in your friends, and they'll have reason to trust in you.

Ahsoka Tano: Suicide is not the Jedi way, Master.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: You should listen to your Padawan.
Anakin Skywalker: As you listened to yours, my old Master? No, we are going to stay and fight.

Obi-Wan Kenobi: Anakin, it's only a droid. You know attachment is not acceptable for a Jedi.
Anakin Skywalker: It's not just that, Master. [to himself] Um, how do I put this? [to Obi-Wan] I didn't wipe R2's memory.
Obi Wan Kenobi: [surprised] What? He's still programed with our tactics and base locations? [to himself] If the Separatists get a hold of him... [to Anakin] What possessed you not to erase that droid's memory?!
Ahsoka Tano: Master Obi-Wan, sometimes, R2 having that extra information has come in handy.
Obi Wan Kenobi: Well, then, find that droid Anakin. Our necks may very well depend on it.
Anakin Skywalker: Right away, Master.

Anakin Skywalker: [Bluffing their way past Gha Nackht] "Pookums" here really has her heart set on another R2, she lost the last one.
Ahsoka Tano: Pookums? Oh, brother!

Duel of the Droids edit

You hold onto friends by keeping your heart a little softer than your head.

Obi-Wan Kenobi: I know you're fond of that droid, but he's fallen into enemy hands.
Anakin Skywalker I could rescue Artoo.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: No, this is not a rescue mission.

Anakin Skywalker: Artoo is more than a droid. He's a friend.

Ahsoka Tano: Master, our orders were to find the Separatist listening post.
Anakin Skywalker: Perhaps Artoo's at the listening post. Did you consider that?

Captain Rex: We found the reactor room, sir. The alarm triggered another security door ray shielded.
Ahsoka Tano: This could take a while to bypass.
Anakin Skywalker: Good luck with that.

Captain Rex: Next time, you're lugging this astromech around!
[The clones and Denal laugh]

Captain Rex: We're bringing the droid?
Ahsoka Tano: We'll need Goldie to open secured hatches and access the station's computer for us. Oh, and Rex, you get to carry him.
Captain Rex: That's just great.

General Grievous: They sent a child to destroy my station? The Republic must be running out of Jedi!
Ahsoka Tano: Sorry to interrupt your playtime, Grumpy, but wouldn't you prefer a challenge?
General Grievous: That wouldn't be you.

[After Anakin finds and rescues R2-D2; R2-D2 chirps beside Anakin]
Anakin Skywalker: R3? Uh, yeah, I had to get a replacement droid. Look, sorry, Artoo. [R2-D2 beeps angrily] It was Obi-Wan's idea. Look, we'll take about this later.

Obi-Wan Kenobi: So let me get this straight, Anakin. You risked the mission, all your men, even your Padawan to save a droid?

Anakin Skywalker: [After he gets to the hangar and R3-S6 rolls past him] Hey, Stubby, where's Ahsoka?
Captain Rex: [his group joins Anakin in the hangar without Ahsoka] General Skywalker, explosives are in place, sir. Objective completed.
Anakin Skywalker: Where's Ahsoka?
Captain Rex: She engaged General Grievous.
Anakin Skywalker: [terrified] Alone?!
Captain Rex: She distracted him while we completed the mission. It was on her orders, sir. The droid was with her.
Anakin Skywalker: We've got to find her.

Anakin Skywalker: [after R3-S6 closes the hangar door on him] What is the matter with you? Are you trying to get us killed?

Ahsoka Tano: [she joins Anakin's side in battle in the hangar] What did I miss?
Anakin Skywalker: Oh, the usual. It was foolish of you to take on General Grievous by yourself.
Ahsoka Tano: Well, I was leading the mission and it seemed like a good idea at the time.

Bombad Jedi edit

Heroes are made by the times.

Padmé Amidala: Go back to the ship and call for help.
C-3PO: I regret the transmitters on the ship are out of order.
Padmé Amidala: What?!
C-3PO: The ship has been destroyed.
Padmé Amidala: Battle droids?
C-3PO: No.
Padmé Amidala: Jar Jar?
C-3PO: Jar Jar.

Padmé Amidala: Far too often, we forget that our most important allies are not always the most powerful.

Padmé Amidala: [to Onaconda Farr] There's always a choice! To live in fear is no life at all!

Cloak of Darkness edit

Ignore your instincts at your peril.

Nute Gunray: I am a man of great wealth, and I can be very generous to my allies.
Commander Gree: That is a very tempting offer, Viceroy. In the meantime, I have a gift for you. [slaps handcuffs on him]

Luminara Unduli: Padawan, terror is not a weapon the Jedi use.
Ahsoka Tano: I wasn't serious. But the only way he'll talk is if he's scared enough.

Ahsoka Tano: If it isn't the hairless harpy.
Asajj Ventress: If it isn't Skywalker's filthy, obnoxious, little pet.
Ahsoka Tano: [sarcastically] How nice of you. Tell you what. I'll give you a merciful death.

Asajj Ventress: Now you fall, as all Jedi must.

Luminara Unduli: I owe you my life, Ahsoka.
Ahsoka Tano: Protecting a Jedi Master is the role of the Padawan.
Luminara Unduli: And teaching is usually the role of the Master. Master Skywalker would be proud.

Lair of Grievous edit

Most powerful is he who controls his own power.

Kit Fisto: Revenge is not the Jedi way.
Nahdar Vebb: But in this war, strength prevails. The rules have changed.
Kit Fisto: Perhaps you are the one who has changed.

Kit Fisto: [to Nahdar]: Those who have power should restrain themselves from using it.

Kit Fisto: You may have been a proud warrior once, but now you're just a pawn in Dooku's game!
General Grievous: I wield great power, Jedi fool!
Kit Fisto: [slices off one of Grievous' arms] That power will only consume you!

Mace Windu: What about your former Padawan?
Kit Fisto: His heart was in the right place, but he tried to answer Grievous' 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.

General Grievous: [touching controls] Let's see if Gor is finished playing with the Jedi. [screen pops up to see the body of his dead pet] Huh? Where are they? [sorrowfully] Gor? AAAAARRRRRGH!!!!!!!!!! [furiously smashes the controls with his bare fists]

General Grievous [to Fisto after killing Nahdar]: I will kill you all! Do you hear me, Jedi?! Do you hear me?!

Dooku Captured edit

The winding path to peace is always a worthy one, regardless of how many turns it takes.

Anakin Skywalker: [drops from ceiling behind Obi-Wan and about to attack before realizing it was him] Oh, it's you!
Obi-Wan Kenobi: This is how you thank me for rescuing you? Pounce on me from the ceiling? [sighs] What am I going to do with you?
Anakin Skywalker: [shrugging] Kind of difficult without a... [Obi-Wan hands him his lightsaber] ...lightsaber. [takes it from him] Thanks.

Anakin Skywalker: There's still Dooku to deal with.
Ahsoka Tano: You let him get away?
Anakin Skywalker: No, not get away, exactly, just... [to Obi-Wan] Chime in anytime.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: Oh, no. I'm enjoying this far too much.

Ahsoka Tano: [to Rex] Let's try not to blow up the ship before they get off this time.

Obi-Wan Kenobi: What are you doing?
Anakin Skywalker: Following him.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: Not that way, We need to cut him off.
Anakin Skywalker: [jumping down into the chute after Dooku] You cut him off, I'll follow him and meet you at the hangar.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: Why do I even try?

Obi-Wan Kenobi: I thought you were following Dooku.
Anakin Skywalker: I was. I followed him here.

Obi-Wan Kenobi: Lucky for you, I'm an excellent shot.
Anakin Skywalker: Well, now those fighters are attacking.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: I’m on it.
Anakin Skywalker: Uh, he's getting too close. [their ship got hit and is now going down] Lucky for you, I'm an excellent pilot.
Anakin Skywalker: And if you'd hit that second fighter, we wouldn't be in this mess. [crashes ship and the two Jedi get out]
Obi-Wan Kenobi: I've had better landings.

Obi-Wan Kenobi: [after the two Jedi are almost crushed by an avalanche of rocks] Anakin, when I tell you to run, run.
Anakin Skywalker: Master! You're alive.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: And where's your lightsaber?
Anakin Skywalker: It got knocked out of my hand.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: By a rock?
Anakin Skywalker: [turns back to Obi-Wan and begins searching for his lightsaber] Yeah, by a rock. It's got to be here somewhere.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: That is a feeble excuse.
Anakin Skywalker: You know what would be helpful? A little light.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: Certainly. [turns on his lightsaber but it sputters and goes out] Silly thing. It was just working a minute ago.
Anakin Skywalker: You don't suppose it was hit by a rock, do you?

Anakin Skywalker: [being chased by a Gundark as Obi-Wan is standing aside and examining his lightsaber] Jump in anytime!
Obi-Wan Kenobi: [looking curiously at his lightsaber] Oh, you're doing fine. She seems to like you.
Anakin Skywalker: Yeah, lucky me! This isn't as much fun as it looks! I thought Gundarks were only found on Vanqor!
Obi-Wan Kenobi: [takes apart lightsaber] Then, this system must be Vanqor.
Anakin Skywalker: [trips and the Gundark grabs him by the ankle and pulls him towards her as he struggles to get away] So, that would make this one...
Obi-Wan Kenobi: [taps lightsaber on a rock as Anakin is held upside down in the air by the Gundark] The mother of all Gundarks. Precisely.
Anakin Skywalker: Are you gonna help me? [Obi-Wan uses the Force to throw a boulder at the Gundark, making her drop Anakin] Well, you took you time. [both Jedi uses the Force to throw boulders at the Gundark until she is knocked out] It's a pity. I was just starting to senses a connection.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: Should I leave you two alone or would you prefer to find a way out of this hole before she wakes up?

Ahsoka Tano: Looks like I got here just in time.
Anakin Skywalker: What do you mean, “just in time”?
Ahsoka Tano: You were in very big trouble.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: Trouble? We were simply searching for Count Dooku.
Anakin Skywalker: [coughing] Yeah, we had the situation well under control, my little Padawan.
Ahsoka Tano: Oh, I see. So which part of the situation did you have under control: the blocked entrance, the poison gas, or that Gundark behind you?
Anakin Skywalker: Gundark?
Obi-Wan Kenobi: Oh, you mean the one that's too far away to worry about? [the Gundark suddenly approaches behind them]
Ahsoka Tano [to her clone brigade]: Block the entrance!
[The clones shoot the top of the cave entrance, causing rocks to fall, blocking it and trapping the Gundark inside the cave]

Anakin Skywalker: How come I'm the one getting caught all the time? It doesn't look good.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: When you're a Jedi Master, you can make the plan.
Anakin Skywalker: That's just it. How can I become a Jedi Master if I'm always getting caught?
Obi-Wan Kenobi: At least you're a master... at getting caught.
Anakin Skywalker: Very funny.

Anakin Skywalker: [about the pirates] They're planet-hopping thieves looking for a quick score. They have no interest in picking a fight with Jedi.
Count Dooku: They are devious and deceitful and most importantly, stupid.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: It's a wonder you don't get along with them, Dooku. You have so much in common.
Count Dooku: You underestimate them at your own peril, Kenobi.

The Gungan General edit

Fail with honor rather than succeed by fraud.

Obi-Wan Kenobi: Hurry it up, Dooku.
Anakin Skywalker: You should be more patient, Master. After all, the Count is an elderly gentleman and doesn't move like he used to.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: I suppose you're right.
Count Dooku: I would kill you both right now if I did not have to drag your bodies.

Anakin Skywalker: We do know where we're going, don't we?
Obi-Wan Kenobi: Hush, Anakin. [to Count Dooku] Do we know where we're going?

Hondo Ohnaka: So what now, Jedi? You're going to arrest me?
Obi-Wan Kenobi: No. Anakin, release him.
Anakin Skywalker: What?
Obi-Wan Kenobi: Captain, you have nothing we want, and since we're not prisoners anymore, you have no bargaining power.
Jar Jar Binks: What? Yousa was in bombad trouble? Mesa rescued you!
Anakin Skywalker: No, Jar Jar. We weren't in any trouble.

Hondo Ohnaka: Jedi! After everything, you're just going to walk away?
Obi-Wan Kenobi: We have no quarrel with you, and we seek no revenge.
Hondo Ohnaka: Indeed. Very honorable, Master Jedi.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: Oh, Captain, you will find that Count Dooku does not share our sense of honor... and he knows where you live.

Anakin Skywalker: It's bad enough that we have to be in the same cell, but could you at least spare me the sound of your constant chatter?
Count Dooku: And while I hold my tongue, the two of you will devise a brilliant strategy for getting off this Godforsaken planet?
Obi-Wan and Anakin: [in unison] Yes.
Count Dooku: Excellent.

Anakin Skywalker: [as Count Dooku is using the Force to hover a plate of food with a knife on it to him] Don't you think our priority should be escape first, eat second?
Count Dooku: [To Obi-Wan] Do control your protege's insolence so I can concentrate.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: Anakin.
Anakin Skywalker: What?
Obi-Wan Kenobi: Control your insolence. The Count is concentrating.

Anakin Skywalker: [after getting recaptured by the pirates when their escape didn't work] What were we thinking? Following a Sith lord.

Anakin Skywalker: [hanging off the edge of a wall with Obi-Wan and Dooku hanging beneath him] This is not going well.
Pirate: Don't let them get away!
Anakin Skywalker: [Dooku's line breaks and Obi-Wan hangs upside down to grab him, putting more weight on Anakin] What are you guys doing? You're too heavy. I can't... do it. Drop Dooku!

Anakin Skywalker: I think it's time to lose some dead weight. [steps menacingly towards Count Dooku but Obi-Wan stops him]
Obi-Wan Kenobi: Anakin.

Anakin Skywalker: [Obi-Wan and Anakin are hanging by their wrists about to be tortured] That can't be right.
Hondo Ohnaka:: Are you calling me a liar?
Anakin Skywalker: Uh, isn't that kind of what you do for a living?
Hondo Ohnaka: You reject my hospitality, refuse to wait in your cell, and now you're going to INSULT ME?!
Anakin Skywalker: I'm just saying.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: Anakin.
Anakin Skywalker: What? He is a pirate.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: Yes, but this may not be the best time for you to speak.
Anakin Skywalker: But you--
Obi-Wan Kenobi: At all, Anakin.

Hondo Ohnaka: [after the power went out when he was electrocuting Anakin and Obi-Wan] What happened to the power? I was having fun!

Jedi Crash edit

Greed and fear of loss are the roots that lead to the tree of evil.

Aayla Secura: We are peacekeepers. We are Jedi from the Galactic Republic. Our ship crashed a few miles away, and one of us is very badly injured. We need your help.
Tee Watt Kaa: Violence breeds violence. Jedi are no peacekeepers.
Ahsoka Tano: We're fighting for freedom.
Tee Watt Kaa: And freedom and peace require fear and death? We colonized this system to find solace from your wretched war. We came here to find peace. You must leave. You will only destroy what small amount of peace is left in the galaxy. You will only bring the destruction of us.

Aayla Secura: I'm sure you are aware that the Jedi did not initiate the Clone Wars, Our only intention is to end it and restore peace to our galaxy.
Tee Watt Kaa: What difference does it make who started the war and who only wants to end it? No side is free of fault. It takes two to fight.
Aayla Secura: But isn't liberty worth fighting for?
Tee Watt Kaa: But is it worth killing for? Fighting for something doesn't necessarily mean you have to destroy everything in your path. Only when you lay down your arms and pursue a course of nonviolence can you make this claim to me that the Jedi are peacekeepers.

Ahsoka Tano: [About Anakin Skywalker] I'm just glad he wasn't awake to see that landing!
Aayla Secura: He would've been proud.
Ahsoka Tano: I've certainly perfected the art of demolishing ships and almost getting my master killed.

Captain Rex: Hey, kid.
Ahsoka Tano: I know, I know. I'm hanging on.

Admiral Yularen: You’ll never be able to dock with our ship in the middle of this battle.
Aayla Secura: We have no choice, Admiral. General Skywalker's condition may be critical. We must get him on board the Resolute.
Admiral Yularen: Are all Jedi so reckless?
Aayla Secura: Just the good ones.

Ahsoka Tano: I should stay. Commander Bly doesn't need my help. Anakin does.
Aayla Secura: You can help Anakin by getting this ship to safety.

Ahsoka Tano: Well, we're not going to crash into the star, but we're definitely going to hit that planet!

Aayla Secura: I know this is hard, Ahsoka, but Anakin has to stay behind and we have to go now. There’s nothing more we can do for him. We must do all we can to get off this planet. As a Jedi, it is your duty to do what is best for the group.

Ahsoka Tano: Be strong, Master. Just a little bit longer. Rex will watch over you.
Aayla Secura: It is time to go.
Captain Rex: Don't worry, kid. I'll take good care of him.

Aayla Secura: I can still sense your worry for Anakin, your attachment to him.
Ahsoka Tano: It's just--I get confused sometimes. It's forbidden for a Jedi to form attachments yet we're suppose to be compassionate.
Aayla Secura: It is nothing to be ashamed of, Ahsoka. I went through the same process when I was your age with my own master.
Ahsoka Tano: Really? You?
Aayla Secura: He was like a father to me. I realized that for the greater good, I had to let him go. Don't lose a thousand lives just to save one.
Ahsoka Tano: Maybe. But that doesn't mean that I can't try to save his life.

Anakin Skywalker: [After being surrounded by curious Lurmen] Um... Snips?

Defenders of Peace edit

When surrounded by war, one must eventually choose a side.

Aayla Secura: [To Ahsoka, about the Lurmen] Don't underestimate their resolve. A strong belief can be more powerful than any army.

Captain Rex: You know, I can't figure those villagers not wanting to fight. No pride, I guess.
Ahsoka Tano: I call it no courage.
Aayla Secura: Sometimes it takes courage to stick to one's beliefs, young Padawan, as any Jedi well knows.

Anakin Skywalker: After we get a shuttle, we'll go back and help them.
Ahsoka Tano: But Tee Watt Kaa said he doesn't need our help.
Anakin Skywalker: [To Ahsoka, about the Lurmen] There's a difference between pulling innocents into a war, and leaving them to extinction.

Ahsoka Tano: I hope you're feeling better, Master, 'cause look what we found.
Anakin Skywalker: Heh, I'm getting stronger all the time, Snips... [Takes binoculars from Ahsoka and sees enemy base] ...but I'm not sure I'm ready for that.

Captain Rex: You know, I can't figure those villagers not wanting to fight. No pride, I guess.
Ahsoka Tano: I call it no courage.
Aayla Secura: Sometimes it takes courage to stick to one's beliefs, young Padawan, as any Jedi well knows.

Tee Watt Kaa: Wag Too, what are you doing?
Wag Too: We’re going to help.
Tee Watt Kaa: I forbid this!
Wag Too: What more would you have them do before we are allowed to defend ourselves?!
Tee Watt Kaa: But—
Wag Too: We have to do this! [he and his followers rush into action]

Trespass edit

Arrogance diminishes wisdom.

Chairman Chi Cho: [To Senator Chuchi] Let me tell you something, Senator. I have led our people since before you were born. I've seen a hundred planets rise and fall through force of arms. If it's not the Separatists out there, then it is an aggressive and malevolent enemy nonetheless, and I will not let whoever it is jeopardize the security of the people of Pantora.

Senator Riyo Chuchi: [To Thi-Sen] To die for one's people is a great sacrifice. To live for one's people, an even greater sacrifice. [C-3PO translates these words to Talz language for Thi-Sen] I choose to live for my people. What do you choose? [C-3PO translates those words to Talz language for Thi-Sen]
[Thi-Sen raises a spear, and plunges it into the ground]
C-3PO: He chooses to live as well.
Senator Riyo Chuchi: We shall leave Orto Plutonia under the watchful eyes of the Talz from this day forth, and recognize your sovereignty as a free and equal people. [all bow]

The Hidden Enemy edit

Truth enlightens the mind, but won't always bring happiness to your heart.

Sergeant Slick: [gets knocked to the floor by Cody, and they exchange punches back and forth] All of you just blindly following orders! For what?! [reverses Cody onto the ground] At least I've gotten something out of all this suffering! [Rex grabs him by the neck]
Captain Rex: Yeah! I bet you sold out your brothers for some real shiny coin, huh? [Slick headbutts him, knocks him to the floor and then pulls on his legs]
Sergeant Slick: Yes, she offered me money. But she offered me something more important, something you wouldn't understand: freedom!
[Cody punches Slick in the face, knocking the Clone sergeant unconscious]
Captain Rex: I think freedom's going to have to wait, kid.
Obi Wan Kenobi: Slick, it was you?
Captain Rex: He gave us a bit of a chase, sir.
Anakin Skywalker: You couldn't be a greater disappointment. How could you do this to your brothers?
Sergeant Slick: Only a Jedi would ask that. It's the Jedi who keep my brothers enslaved! We do your bidding, we serve at your whim. I just wanted something more.
Captain Rex: And all you had to do to get it was put the rest of us all at risk.
Sergeant Slick: I... I love my brothers. You're too blind to see it. But I was striking a blow for all clones!
Commander Cody: If you loved your brothers, you wouldn't have put them at risk.

Sergeant Slick: Chopper, we're all brothers, but how can we trust anything you say now?
Chopper: No, sir, I'm telling you! I did not--
Sergeant Slick: It's okay. We'll get you a proper investigation. You don't have to say anything 'til the Jedi come back and talk to you.
Chopper: [turns towards Slick] Maybe you should talk, sir! Tell them where you went; I was at the South exit, remember? I saw you go in, sir, I saw you.
Sergeant Slick: Chopper, I have been patient-
Chopper: Everyone else turned right, towards the barracks and the mess. You turned left, towards the command center. Where were you going, sir?
Sergeant Slick: Obviously, the kid feels cornered.
Commander Cody: Sergeant, what did you mean, "'til the Jedi come back"? How did you know that the Jedi were gone? [Rex, Cody, Chopper, Gus, Punch, Jester and Sketch all look suspiciously at Slick]
Sergeant Slick: [darkly] I really wish you hadn't noticed that, sir. [attacks Cody and flees]
Captain Rex: It's Slick? Slick's the traitor?

Blue Shadow Virus edit

Fear is a disease; hope is its only cure.

Anakin Skywalker: Where's Senator Amidala?
Captain Typho: She went to go look for the lab.
Anakin Skywalker: And you let her go?!
C-3PO: Senator Padmé can be very hard to stop once she has made up her mind.
Anakin Skywalker: Good point. I know what you mean.

Anakin Skywalker: Where are they?
Obi-Wan Kenobi: Patience. They'll be here in a moment. You seem a bit on edge.
Anakin Skywalker: There's a good chance we're about to destroy all life on this planet, including ours, and the senator's. So yes, I'm a little on edge. Why aren't you?
Obi-Wan Kenobi: I'm just better at hiding it.

Dr. Nuvo Vindi: Meanwhile, as we speak, thousands and thousands of so-called 'superior' lifeforms are spreading their disease of war throughout the galaxy! Perhaps they are the ones who should be eradicated?

Obi-Wan Kenobi: [After all the bombs have been activated] Anakin, I'm guessing you didn't capture the doctor.
Anakin Skywalker: I'm working on it. Do you have the bombs?
Obi-Wan Kenobi: I'm working on it. Dr. Vindi has remotely activated the bombs. They're counting down.
Anakin Skywalker: That's great.

Anakin Skywalker: Have you seen Padmé?
Ahsoka Tano: She's right next to me! I'm okay too. Thanks for asking.

Senator Padmé Amidala: Ani, how about the next time you rescue me before you kill all the battle droids?
Anakin Skywalker: [smiling] A little "thank you" would go a long way.

Mystery of a Thousand Moons edit

A single chance is a galaxy of hope.

Anakin Skywalker: The virus is loose, but Ahsoka has sealed off the entire facility.
Senator Padmé Amidala: Yes, but any remaining droids will try to break out. I'll do what I can to stop them. I cannot let that virus escape.
Anakin Skywalker: Be careful.

Senator Padmé Amidala: What a waste.
Captain Rex: With all due respect, Senator, it's what these men were born to do.
Senator Padmé Amidala: I hope that their sacrifice brings us closer to peace.

Anakin Skywalker: It sounds like a load of--
Obi-Wan Kenobi: Superstition?
Anakin Skywalker: That's one word for it.

Anakin Skywalker: [Pulls out lightsaber and holds it up to Vindi's face] Where's the antidote, Vindi?
Dr. Vindi: [Laughs] You mistake my role, Jedi. My job was to manufacture a plague, not to cure it.
Anakin Skywalker: We don't have time for games.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: Patience, Anakin. There's more than one way to skin a womp rat.
Anakin Skywalker: [Moves his lightsaber closer to Vindi's face] I said, "Where?"
Dr. Vindi: Yes, kill me now and spare these old bones, the blue shadow's dire embrace, because once the first droid breaks out of that laboratory, ALL OF NABOO IS DOOMED!!!!
Obi-Wan Kenobi: Anakin, the fastest way to save Senator Amidala and Ahsoka is to get Vindi back to the capital and find an actual antidote.

Anakin Skywalker: Let's go.
Captain Typho: [Anakin begins to leave] You must move cautiously if you--
Anakin Skywalker: There's no time for caution. [Obi-Wan stops Anakin] My Padawan is trapped down there and so is Padmé. [Obi-Wan looks at Anakin with concern and Anakin looks away in shame] I mean, Senator Amidala.

Obi-Wan Kenobi: Padmé and Ahsoka will be fine.
Anakin Skywalker: They will be, if we succeed.

Obi-Wan Kenobi: Very impressive. You just destroyed 17 defenseless battle droids without suffering a scratch.
Anakin Skywalker: [Another battle droid falls apart in front of them] 18, actually.

Anakin Skywalker: We'll borrow a power converter from Jaybo and reprogram it to feed our--
Obi-Wan Kenobi: Slow down, Anakin.
Anakin Skywalker: [Stops and turns sharply to Obi-Wan, angry] Slow down. Slow down? You saw them, Master, they're dying!
Obi-Wan Kenobi: A great leap forward often requires taking two steps back.
Anakin Skywalker: And sometimes all it requires is the will to jump.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: At least hear me out on this.

Anakin Skywalker: Oh, poodoo.

Obi-Wan Kenobi: I heard you were quite brave fending off the battle droids, Jar Jar.
Jar Jar Binks: Really?
Obi-Wan Kenobi: Senator Amidala suggested we offer you training to help hone your skills with a blaster.
Jar Jar Binks: Really?
Obi-Wan Kenobi: Really.
Jar Jar Binks: Oh, boy! I’m-a gonna be trained!
Captain Rex: I am not training him.

Anakin Skywalker: You did a fantastic job today, Snips.
Ahsoka Tano: All thanks to your training, Master.
Anakin Skywalker: Yeah, you're right, I probably do deserve most of the credit… [Ahsoka rolls her eyes] …but not all of it.
Ahsoka Tano: Good thing I know you don't mean everything you say.
Anakin Skywalker: Pilot, get these two out of here.
Ahsoka Tano: Thank you, Master.

Anakin Skywalker: Padmé, I spoke with the medical droid. He expects you to make a full recovery.
Senator Padmé Amidala: I never lost faith in you. None of us did.
Anakin Skywalker: Oh, that's good to hear, 'cause there were a few moments where we weren't so sure of ourselves.
Senator Padmé Amidala: Well, you did make it. By the way, your Padawan was brilliant. I trust I’ll see you soon, [she and Anakin hold hands] General Skywalker?
Anakin Skywalker: Of course, my lady.

Storm Over Ryloth edit

It is a rough road that leads to the heights of greatness.

Admiral Yularen: [to Anakin about Ahsoka] Did you train her not to follow orders?

Captain Rex: [Over radio] General, you still there?
Anakin Skywalker: [in an escape pod] Yep. I'm just sitting here watching the show.

Axe: [groans in frustration] My power converters, they’re failing!
Ahsoka Tano: Just stay with me, Axe.
Axe: [his V-19 gets shot] Overload! Overload! AAAAAHHHHH!!!!! [his V-19 spirals out of control and explodes, killing him]
Ahsoka Tano: AXE!!!!!!

Obi-Wan Kenobi: I won't even ask where the rest of Anakin's fleet is or why he's in an escape pod.
Ahsoka Tano: That's probably for the best.

Anakin Skywalker: Ahsoka, we are in trouble. I order you back here.
Ahsoka Tano: All right, all right. Let's go, squad. Pull back to command ship.
Clone: Why are we retreating?
Ahsoka Tano: We're not retreating. We're following orders.

Anakin Skywalker: Ahsoka, I am very disappointed in you. You not only disobeyed the Admiral, you disobeyed me.
Ahsoka Tano: I thought I could knock out those battleships so when Master Obi-Wan arrived, he could get through.
Anakin Skywalker: I know you meant well, Snips, but there's a bigger picture that you're not aware of. First rule of war: listen and obey your superiors.
Ahsoka Tano: But sometimes you get carried away.
Anakin Skywalker: All that means is that I understand what you're going through.
Ahsoka Tano: But I failed.
Anakin Skywalker: It was a trap, Snips, it wasn't your fault.
Ahsoka Tano: I lost so many of my pilots.
Anakin Skywalker: Take heart, little one. That's the reality of command.

Anakin Skywalker: Ahsoka, we have to break that blockade. The Twi’leks on Ryloth are depending on us.
Ahsoka Tano: I understand that, Master, but we've lost so many men. Did we get more support?
Anakin Skywalker: No, we have to make do with the forces we have, and I need to come up with a plan.
Ahsoka Tano: You don't even have a plan?!
Anakin Skywalker: Don't worry, Ahsoka.
Ahsoka Tano: No! That's what you said last time, and now everyone's gone! My whole squadron!
Anakin Skywalker: Ahsoka!
Ahsoka Tano: We can't just smash through that blockade.
Anakin Skywalker: [Anakin's comlink beeps and he answers it without breaking his glare with Ahsoka] Skywalker here.
Captain Rex: [Over comlink] General, the Defender is contacting us. There seems to be a problem.
Anakin Skywalker: All right, Rex, I'll be right there. [Ends conversation with Rex and focuses his attention back to Ahsoka] Go back to your quarters and cool off. We'll finish this talk later.

Anakin Skywalker: You said we couldn't smash through the blockade. I decided that's partly true. You also implied that my plans put a lot of people at risk and... I agree with you on that one.
Ahsoka Tano: That's a first.
Anakin Skywalker: I decided the only way we can break the blockade is if I pilot the Defender right into their battleship and take out the commander.
Ahsoka Tano: What?!
Anakin Skywalker: This way I'm the only one at risk. Besides, the Defender is damaged already.

Ahsoka Tano: Master, I-I can't. If something goes wrong, I can't be responsible for --
Anakin Skywalker: You are responsible, Ahsoka. These men are depending on you, and this time, so am I.

Innocents of Ryloth edit

The costs of war can never be truly accounted for.

TX-20: Their chances of success against us are 742-1.
Wat Tambor: You had better be right.
TX-20: I am a droid, I am always right.

Obi-Wan Kenobi: We need to know what the droids have in store for us. Send your best men to scout ahead.
Commander Cody: Will do, sir. Boil, Waxer, come with me.
Waxer: [To Boil] I guess we're the best.

Boil: [to Waxer] Good, you caught her. You know, I have binders if we need 'em. [Waxer gives him a stern glare] What?

Numa: Nerra. Nerra.
Waxer: No, I'm Waxer. He's Boil.
Numa: Nerra. Nerra.
Boil: You made a friend. Mission accomplished.

Boil: Don't worry, Waxer, I don't think she's armed. [Numa bites his finger] Ow! The little tail-head bit me!

Waxer: Poor little thing. She lost it all. [to Numa] It's okay now. We're here to help.
Boil: Don't cry, kid, we'll keep you safe. I… I promise.

Numa: Nerra! Nerra! Nerra!
Waxer: Sir, what is that she keeps calling us?
Obi-Wan Kenobi: "Nerra". It means "brother".

Liberty on Ryloth edit

Compromise is a virtue to be cultivated, not a weakness to be despised.

Battle Droid 1: Look, it's RB-551.
Battle Droid 2: No wonder he got blasted. He's one of those older models programmed by a central computer.
Battle Droid 1: Not us; we're independent thinkers.
Battle Droid 2: Roger, roger.
Battle Droid 3: Roger, roger.
Battle Droid 4: Roger, roger.

Cham Syndulla: [To Mace Windu] Another armed occupation is not a free Ryloth. How long before I am fighting you, Master Jedi?

Wat Tambor: [To Cham Syndulla] What are your terms for surrender?
Cham Syndulla: They are unconditional.
Wat Tambor: [pauses in disgust] Agreed.

Mace Windu: I'll hold them off! Get that bridge back up!
Clone Trooper: Sir, yes, sir!

Hostage Crisis edit

A secret shared is a trust formed.

Cad Bane: Well, Hutt, it doesn't look like prison had too adverse an effect on you.
Ziro the Hutt: Oh, you can't imagine the unspeakable things I've suffered! The horror! I doubt I'll ever really recover!
Cad Bane: How about some dead senators as payback?

Ziro the Hutt: Congratulations on a job well done, bounty hunter.
Cad Bane: Time to pay up, Hutt. I don't work for free.
Ziro the Hutt: Oh.

Cad Bane: Once Ziro has been released and is handed over to me, then your associate will be released, understand?
Palpatine: Oh, I do. But I feel it is my duty to warn you that you will end up paying for this outrage.
Cad Bane: I can live with that.

Anakin Skywalker: Hey, I'm supposed to be on a meditative retreat. We should go away together. I know a place far away from here where no one would recognize us. Yeah, it'll be like we're actually husband and wife instead of senator and Jedi.
Senator Padmé Amidala: I--I can't, Ani.
Anakin Skywalker: What do you mean, you can't? Oh, it's only two weeks. We'll be back before anyone even notices we're gone.
Senator Padmé Amidala: I have to bring this bill before the Senate. It's important.
Anakin Skywalker: Uh-huh. More important than the way you feel about me?
Senator Padmé Amidala: Not more important, but important. The work I do--the work we both do is in the service of the Republic, to protect those who would otherwise be powerless to protect themselves.
Anakin Skywalker: Of course. But those are ideals. Isn't our love more important to you?
Senator Padmé Amidala: But I--
Anakin Skywalker: No. No, but. To me, there's nothing more important than the way I feel about you. Nothing.
Senator Padmé Amidala: [Stands up to face Anakin] Anakin, don't be so--
Anakin Skywalker: Oh, you don't believe me.
Senator Padmé Amidala: I didn't say I--
Anakin Skywalker: I'll prove it. Just watch. [Pulls out his lightsaber] When I finished constructing my lightsaber, Obi-Wan said to me, "Anakin, this weapon is your life." This weapon is my life.
Senator Padmé Admidala: No, Anakin, I can't. A Jedi lightsaber is-- [Anakin puts the lightsaber in Padmé's hand] Wow, it's heavier than I thought.
Anakin Skywalker: It's yours. Believe me now?
Senator Padmé Amidala: If all you want to do is make fun of me, I think you should just go.
Anakin Skywalker: That's not what I want. Not at all.

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

Padmé Amidala: Another daring rescue, Master Jedi.
Anakin Skywalker: I do my best, Senator.
