20 Greatest Star Wars Quotes Of All-Time

5. Luke Faces His Destiny

Star Wars THE QUOTE: You cannot escape your destiny. You must face Darth Vader again. THE SPEAKER: Obi-Wan Kenobi THE FILM: Star Wars: Return of the Jedi THE BACKGROUND: Before I go any further, I must confess that my nostalgic view of the Return of the Jedi video game from 1984 has probably influenced my decision to include this quote on the list here. It was one of the first times that I€™d heard a voice sampling from a movie in a video game, and I was absolutely blown away by it. The gist of it is this: Yoda has just died, given up his spirit to the living Force, but not before confirming that Darth Vader is indeed Luke€™s father. Luke is obviously conflicted. He doesn€™t want to kill his father, and Obi-Wan appears to him in his moment of indecision. Kill Vader or not, it€™s Luke€™s destiny to confront him once again if he is to become a fully-fledged Jedi Knight.
