Darth Vader: Your powers are weak, old man. Ben Obi-Wan Kenobi: You can't win, Darth. If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine.
General Tagge: Until this battle station is fully operational, we are vulnerable. The Rebel Alliance is too well equipped, they're more dangerous than you realize. Admiral Motti: Dangerous to your starfleet, Commander; not to this battle station.
Luke Skywalker: What are you doing hiding back there? C-3PO: It wasn't my fault, sir, please don't deactivate me. I told him not to go, but he's faulty, malfunctioning. Kept babbling on about his mission.
Han Solo: Can't get out that way. Princess Leia Organa: Looks like you've managed to cut off our only escape route. Han Solo: [sarcastic] Maybe you'd like it back in your cell, your Highness.
[C-3PO is tangled up in wires after a run-in with tie fighters] C-3PO: Help! I think I'm melting! This is all your fault! [R2-D2 makes a series of beeps that sound like chuckling]
Luke Skywalker: You know, between his howling and your blasting everything in sight, it's a wonder the whole station doesn't know we're here. Han Solo: Bring 'em on, I'd prefer a straight fight to all this sneaking around.
Governor Tarkin: Are they away? Darth Vader: They've just made the jump into hyperspace. Governor Tarkin: You're sure the homing beacon is secure aboard their ship? I'm taking an awful risk, Vader. This had better work.
Luke Skywalker: You know, I did feel something. I could almost see the remote. Ben Obi-Wan Kenobi: That's good. You have taken your first step into a larger world.
Higgins: You served with Col. Donovan in the OSS, didn't you, sir? Mr. Wabash: I sailed the Adriatic with a movie star at the helm. It doesn't seem like much of a war now, but it was.
[first lines] Private Edward P. Train: What's this war in the heart of nature? Why does nature vie with itself? The land contend with the sea? Is there an avenging power in nature? Not one power, but two?
[opening title card] Title card: The machines rose from the ashes of the nuclear fire. Their war to exterminate mankind had raged for decades, but the final battle would not be fought in the future. It would be fought here, in our present. Tonight...
Jin-tae: [pulls out Jin-seok's pen that he lost] I found this in the fire. I've been holding onto this for you. Jin-seok: Give it to me... when I see you again.
Duncan: How's the battle going? Peter: [Playing with Star Wars action figures] Luke and Leia are hooking up. Duncan: You know they're brother and sister, right? Peter: Yeah. Duncan: Cool.
Dr. Manhattan: If the United States and Soviet Union engage in all-out war the resulting blast wave would produce a sudden burst of tachyons... particles which travel backward through what... *you* perceive as time... therefore obscuring my vision of...
I think that George Lucas' 'Star Wars' films are fantastic. What he's done, which I admire, is he has taken all the money and profit from those films and poured it into developing digital sound and surround sound, which we are using today.
The world is a challenging place in terms of wars and peace, basic human rights and freedoms. The Holy Father has a major role to play in global affairs. The pope is more than a spiritual leader. For the world's 1.2 billion Catholics, he is an inspir...
The Marine Corps has to ask itself, 'What does our nation need from its premier crisis response force?' We are America's shock troops in war and peace. I know it sounds corny, but it's not.
Really important books to me are the classics. I try very hard to read them well - you know, especially once I got serious about writing. So, reading Tolstoy several times - 'War and Peace,' 'The Kreutzer Sonata' - all those were really important to ...
If you do your research on hot springs all over the world, they're usually places of peace. People, even in warring nations and so forth, they'll go and live in peace together around the hot springs, which were always considered medicinal. I firmly b...
Bush's war in Iraq has done untold damage to the United States. It has impaired our military power and undermined the morale of our armed forces. Our troops were trained to project overwhelming power. They were not trained for occupation duties.
The post-Cold War order in Europe is finished, with Vladimir Putin its executioner. Russia's invasion of Georgia only marked its passing. Russia has emerged as a born-again 19th-century power determined to challenge the intellectual, moral and instit...
