The little green guy that turned out to be on of Star Wars most loved and recognisable characters. Sure E.T. was cuter and could make things fly, but he didn’t have the power of the force and a command of the lexicon that was as unique had ever been in film history.
Here’s ten of Yodo’s best quotes from the six Star Wars films and why I think they are the best.
“Do or do not. There is no try.”
Let's go straight to a true classic quote from ANY movie ever. From Empire, Yoda is explaining to a frazzled Luke Skywalker that in terms of using the Force to pull a sunken X-Wing from out of the swamp that he's in a pass or fail situation. And then to show is young learner who's really in charge, he does do the do and lifts the ship out himself.
This quote from the same scene sums it all up:
“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. Life creates it, makes it grow. Its energy surrounds us and binds us. Luminous beings are we, not this crude matter. You must feel the Force around you; here, between you, me, the tree, the rock, everywhere, yes. Even between the land and the ship.”

“When nine hundred years old you reach, look as good, you will not, hmmm?”
Yoda jests Luke a little. Before he then dies. Yoda was quite fond of jesting his Jedi - remember this one?
"Lost a planet, Master Obi-Wan has. How embarrassing. How embarrassing!" Yoda to the bearded to in Attack of the Clones.
“Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering. I sense much fear in you.
A line from Phantom Menance where Yoda is basically outlining what will happen to Anakin Skywalker and the consequences his fear will have for himself, all those around him and beyond.

“You must unlearn what you have learned.”
Some say you can't teach an old dog new tricks. Yoda seemed to think Luke could. And he did.
And some other sweet quotes:

- “Named must your fear be before banish it you can.”
- “The boy you trained, gone he is. Consumed by Darth Vader.”
- “To answer power with power, the Jedi way this is not. In this war, a danger there is, of losing who we are.”
- “Powerful you have become, the dark side I sense in you.”
- “Control, control, you must learn control!”
