20 Greatest Star Wars Quotes Of All-Time

12. Yoda's Words Of Wisdom

yoda main THE QUOTE: Adventure. Heh. Excitement. Heh. A Jedi craves not these things. THE SPEAKER: Yoda THE FILM: Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back THE BACKGROUND: To be honest, I could have taken a whole bunch of quotes from Luke€™s Jedi training on Dagobah, but I€™ll limit it to a couple of ones that really resonated with me for the purposes of this article. Luke has arrived in Dagobah looking for Yoda, the Jedi Master that trained Obi-Wan. Irritable and cranky, Luke sets up camp in the swampy marshlands, and soon meets Yoda. Being the wise Jedi master that he is, Yoda immediately senses that Luke is headstrong and restless, and is initially reluctant to train the young would-be Jedi. One perhaps feels that Yoda senses in Luke an inclination to rush headlong into things without thinking them through patiently and calmly, hence the above words of wisdom. Although Yoda eventually agrees to train Luke, he is soon proved right in his suspicions when Luke rushes to save his friends on Bespin.
