"Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to fear. Fear leads to suffering. Suffering leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to anger."

no poll option for "How you get so big eating food of this kind?"

I wonder if the problem a lot of Gen X'ers have with Jar Jar Binks is because Yoda starts off annoying ("Away put your weapon! I mean you no harm!"), but then turns into a cool nuanced character, while Jar Jar starts off annoying but stays annoying in the face of the audience's expectations.

Watched ESB again last week and “Luminous beings are we…not this crude matter.” remains unfuckwithable.

xpost lol yeah. Yoda starts out like this goofy old senile character and then out of nowhere is this zen being ("Wars not make one great"), whereas Jar Jar is just a fuckin' cartoon character throughout (figuratively and literally)

Shouldn't "No... there is another." have been included, since it was a major cliffhanger?

There is no why

Yoda just trolling Luke when they first meet so that's why it's ok

Write-in for "Mine! Mine!"

My favorite lines tend to be petulant in nature. My most frequently-quoted SW line, easily, is "Threepio? (whines) Where could he beeee?"

oh Christ, Hamill at his worst

"You will be" should really include that weird noise he makes right before it but I'm not sure how to render it phonetically

Number None, Thursday, 7 January 2016 19:33 (nine years ago)

would have maybe voted "food of this kind," which is the best of the quirky grumpy muppet lines. but really: "luminous beings" just over "wars not make one great." "you will be" also rules but is a little more generic aside from the awesome delivery.

do or do not is probably his most iconic line?

was having a meeting with my #2 today and a bunch of coworkers outside were getting rambunctious about how much better Clone Wars cartoon Yoda is than Prequel Yoda, especially how he fights. Had to shut the office door.

Obvious answer is "True is it that we have seen better days"
