Mace Windu quotes from Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace (1999)

Mace Windu

I do not believe the Sith could've returned without us knowing.

Mace Windu

We will use all our resources to unravel this mystery. We will discover the identity of your attacker. May the Force be with you.

Master Yoda

Master Qui-Gon. More to say, have you?

Qui-Gon Jinn

With your permission, my master, I have encountered a vergence in the Force.

Master Yoda

A vergence, you say?

Mace Windu

Located around a person?

Qui-Gon Jinn

A boy. His cells have the highest concetration of midi-chlorians I have seen in a life-form. It was possible he was concieved by the midi-chlorians.

Mace Windu

You refer to the prophecy of The One who will bring balance to the Force. You believe it's this boy?

Master Yoda

How feel you?

Anakin Skywalker

Cold, sir.

Master Yoda

Afraid, are you?

Anakin Skywalker

No, sir.

Master Yoda

See through you, we can.

Mace Windu

Be mindful of your feelings.

Ki-Adi-Mundi

Your thoughts dwell on your mother.

Anakin Skywalker

I miss her.

Master Yoda

Afraid to lose her, I think, hmm?

Anakin Skywalker

What has that got to do with anything?

Master Yoda

Everything! 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.

Ki-Adi-Mundi

The Force is strong with him.

Qui-Gon Jinn

He's to be trained, then.

Mace Windu

No. He will not be trained.

Qui-Gon Jinn

No?!

Mace Windu

He is too old.

Qui-Gon Jinn

He is the Chosen One! You must see it!

Master Yoda

Hmmm. Clouded, this boy's future is.

Qui-Gon Jinn

I will train him, then. I take Anakin as my Padawan learner.

Master Yoda

An apprentice, you have, Qui-Gon. Impossible, to take on a second.

Mace Windu

The code forbids it.

Qui-Gon Jinn

Obi-Wan is ready--

Obi-Wan Kenobi

I am ready to face the trials.

Master Yoda

Our own council, we will keep, on who is ready.

Qui-Gon Jinn

He is headstrong and he has much to learn about the living Force, but he is capable. There is little more he will learn from me.

Master Yoda

Young Skywalker's fate will be decided later.

Mace Windu

Now is not the time for this. The Senate is voting for a new Supreme Chancellor and Queen Amidala is returning home, which will put pressure on the Federation and could widen the confrontation.

Ki-Adi-Mundi

And draw out the Queen's attacker.

Mace Windu

Go with the Queen to Naboo and discover the identity of the dark warrior. This is the clue we need to unravel this mystery of the Sith.

Master Yoda

May the Force be with you.

Mace Windu

There's no doubt that the mysterious warrior was a Sith.

Master Yoda

Always two there are. No more, no less. A master... and an apprentice.

Mace Windu

But which was destroyed? The master or the apprentice?
