“Help me Obi-Wan Kenobi. You’re my only hope.”

Princess Leia: You must see this droid safely delivered to him on Alderaan. This is our most desperate hour. Help me, Obi-Wan Kenobi. You’re my only hope.

Film: A New Hope (1977)

“These aren’t the droids you’re looking for.”

Obi-Wan: These aren’t the droids you’re looking for.

Stormtrooper: These aren’t the droids we’re looking for.

Obi-Wan: He can go about his business.

Stormtrooper: You can go about your business.

Obi-Wan: Move along.

Stormtrooper: Move along... move along.

Film: A New Hope (1977)

“I find your lack of faith disturbing.”

Admiral Motti: Don’t try to frighten us with your sorcerer’s ways, Lord Vader. Your sad devotion to that ancient Jedi religion has not helped you conjure up the stolen data tapes, or given you enough clairvoyance to find the rebels’ hidden fortress...

[Vader makes a pinching motion and Motti starts choking]

Darth Vader: I find your lack of faith disturbing.

Film: A New Hope (1977)

“The force is strong with this one.”

Darth Vader: The force is strong with this one.

Film: A New Hope (1977)

When I left you, I was but the learner; now I am the master.

Darth Vadar: I’ve been waiting for you, Obi-Wan. We meet again, at last. The circle is now complete. When I left you, I was but the learner; now I am the master.

Film: A New Hope (1977)

“May the Force be with you.”

While said through out all the films, General Dodonna, not Obi-Wan Kenobi, is the first to utter the phrase.

[Preparing the rebels before the battle against the Death Star] General Dodonna: Then man your ships. And may the Force be with you.

Film: A New Hope (1977)

“I’d just as soon kiss a Wookiee.”

Han Solo: Afraid I was gonna leave without giving you a goodbye kiss?

Princess Leia: I’d just as soon kiss a Wookiee.

Han Solo: I can arrange that. You could use a good kiss.

Film: The Empire Strikes Back (1980)

“Judge me by my size, do you?”

Luke: I can’t. It’s too big.

Yoda: Size matters not. Look at me. Judge me by my size, do you? Hmm? Hmm. And well you should not. For my ally is the Force, and a powerful ally it is.

Film: The Empire Strikes Back (1980)

“Do ... or do not. There is no try”

Luke: All right, I’ll give it a try.

Yoda: No. Try not. Do ... or do not. There is no try.

Film: The Empire Strikes Back (1980)

“Luke, I am your father.”

Note: This may be the most quoted movie line to never have been uttered in film. While Darth Vader may never have said, “Luke I am your father,” it has become one of the most iconic (misquoted) lines of the franchise.

Darth Vader: Obi-Wan never told you what happened to your father.

Luke Skywalker: He told me enough! He told me you killed him!

Darth Vader: No. I am your father.

Film: The Empire Strikes Back (1980)

“I love you”

Princess Leia: I love you.

Han Solo: I know.

Film: Empire Strikes Back (1980)

“When 900 years old, you reach… Look as good, you will not.”

Yoda: That face you make... look I so old to young eyes?

Luke: No. Of course not.

Yoda: I do. Yes, I do. Sick have I become, old and weak... When 900 years old you reach, look as good you will not, hmm?

Film: Return of the Jedi (1983)

“It’s a trap!”

Mon Calamari: Admiral! We have enemy ships in sector 47!
