The Emperor: (to the Senate): In order to ensure our security and continuing stability, the Republic will be reorganized into the first Galactic Empire, for a safe and secure society which I assure you will last for ten thousand years.
(Senate fills with enormous applause)
Padme Amidala: (to Bail Organa) So this is how liberty dies... with thunderous applause.
Count Dooku: I sense great fear in you, Skywalker. You have hate, you have anger, but you don't use them.
All hell is unleashed when he does.
Count Dooku: Twice the pride, double the fall.
And fall he did.
General Grievous: You fool! I have been trained in your Jedi arts by Count Dooku.
And Obi-Wan trained the man who killed Dooku.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: I have a bad feeling about this.
It wouldn't be Star Wars without a bad feeling.
Darth Sidious: Power! Unlimited... POWER!
And for decades he had it.
Chancellor Palpatine: All who gain power are afraid to lose it, even the Jedi.
So true.
Darth Sidious: Every single Jedi, including your friend, Obi-Wan Kenobi, is now an enemy of the Republic. Do what must be done, Lord Vader. Do not hesitate, show no mercy.
So chilling.
Darth Sidious: You will not stop me! Darth Vader will become more powerful than either of us.
And he would have been if Obi-Wan hadn't chopped off his remaining natural limbs. With so much of him being machinery, he could never fully master the Force.
Darth Sidious: Once more the Sith will rule the galaxy... and we shall have peace.
If everyone cowering to your tyranical rule, then success!
Darth Sidious: I can feel your anger... it gives you focus, it makes you stronger!
And Anakin had a lot of anger. Starting when he had to leave his Mother behind on Tatoonie.
Darth Sidious: I have waited a long time for this moment, my little green friend. At last, the Jedi are no more.
He nearly got his wish. And they weren't even a blip on the map for 20 years.
Chancellor Palpatine: The dark side of the force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be... unnatural.
Such as prolonging life.
Darth Sidious: Commander Cody, the time has come. Execute Order 66.
Cold.
Anakin Skywalker: He was an unarmed prisoner... I shouldn't have done that; it is not the Jedi way.
But you did do that. Just like you slaughtered those Tusken Raiders when your mother died.
Chancellor Palpatine: I need your help son... I am counting on you to be the eyes, ears and voice of the Republic. Anakin, I am appointing you to be my personal representative on the Jedi Council.
And this almost gives Anakin what he strives for. If only they had named him Master.
Anakin Skywalker: Something's happening. I'm not the Jedi I should be. I want more and I know I shouldn't.
Pride does that to a person.
Darth Vader: Love won't save you, Padme, only my new powers can do that!
But at what cost? He gained those powers by razing the Jedi Temple.
Padme Amidala: Come away with me. Help me raise our child. Leave everything behind while you still can!
How differently everything would have been if he had listened to her.
Darth Vader: I don't want to hear anymore about Obi-Wan. The Jedi turned against me! Don't you turn against me!
That's his paranoia speaking.
Darth Vader: I pledge myself to your teachings.
His fall to the Dark Side is complete.
Padme Amidala: I don't know you anymore! Anakin, you're breaking my heart! You're going down a path I can't follow.
Darth Vader: Liar! You're with him! You brought him here to kill me!
Paranoia speaking again.
Darth Vader: You turned her against me!
And again.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: You have allowed this dark lord to twist your mind, until now, until now you have become the very thing you swore to destroy.
Just to try to save his wife.
Darth Vader: I have brought peace, freedom, justice and securty to my new empire!
But at what cost?
Darth Vader: You underestimate my power!
No, I don't think Obi-Wan did.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: You were the Chosen One! It was said that you would destroy the Sith, not join them! Bring balance to the force, not leave it in darkness!
But in the end, didn't Vader bring balance to the Force by killing the Emperor and saving Luke?
Obi-Wan Kenobi: You were my brother, Anakin. I loved you!
Yoda: If into the security recordings you go, only pain will you find.
How did Yoda already know who slaughtered those at the Temple?
Yoda: Destroy the Sith, we must.
Eventually.
Yoda: Into exile I must go; failed I have.
How did Yoda find Dagobagh?
Master Yoda: Destroy the Sith, we must.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: Send me to kill the Emperor. I will not kill Anakin.
Master Yoda: To fight this Lord Sidious, strong enough you are not.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: He is like my brother... I cannot do it.
Master Yoda: Twisted by the dark side, young Skywalker has become. The boy you trained, gone he is... consumed by Darth Vader.
Could the fate of the Empire have been changed if Yoda went after Anakin, and Obi-Wan challenged the Emperor?
Mace Windu: I sense a great deal of confusion in you, young Skywalker. There's much fear that clouds your judgment.
If they all could sense his fear, why didn't they do something about it?
Mace Windu: I sense a plot to destroy the Jedi. The dark side of the Force surrounds the Chancellor.
The Challencor IS the dark side.
Anakin Skywalker: I pledge myself to you teachings.
Darth Sidious: Good. Good. The Force is strong with you. A powerful Sith you will become. Henceforth you shall be known as Darth... Vader.
Anakin Skywalker: Thank you, my master.
Darth Sidious: Lord Vader, rise.
Anyone else's heart break for the little slave boy who became a Jedi?
Emperor Palpatine: Lord Vader, can you hear me?
Darth Vader: Yes, Master. Where is Padme? Is she safe? Is she alright?
Emperor Palpatine: It seems in your anger, you killed her.
Darth Vader: I couldn't have! She was alive! I felt it! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Kinda goofy, but the scene was cool. His anger, his anguish crushing all those objects in the lab. And Sidious's smile.
Senator Amidala: I'm not going to die in childbirth, Anakin. I promise you.
Anakin Skywalker: No, I promise you.
And she wouldn't have, if Anakin hadn't broken her heart.
Darth Sidious: (to Separatists) I am sending you my apprentice, Darth Vader. He will... take care of you.
By putting his lightsaber thru your chests.
Padme Amidala: Obi-Wan, there is still good in him... there is... still..
She spoke the truth.
C-3PO: Oh, no.
The last line of the Prequel Trilogy. He also has the first line of the Original Trilogy.
