Anakin Skywalker quotes from Star Wars: The Clone Wars

I'm returning your Padawan.

Anakin Skywalker

I'm sorry your talks with Bonteri failed.

Ahsoka Tano

How did you know?

Anakin Skywalker

We have eyes and ears everywhere, Ahsoka. That was dangerous and careless going to Raxus, not to mention illegal. You went too far this time.

Ahsoka Tano

You would do the same. You do the same all the time.

Anakin Skywalker

This was too much.

Ahsoka Tano

Maybe so. But I did realize something. The politics of this war are not as black and white as I once thought they were.

Obi-Wan Kenobi

Looks like I'm her favorite.

Anakin Skywalker

I'm kind of disappointed. Only the droids follow me.

Obi-Wan Kenobi

Ventress, you're not looking well.

Anakin Skywalker

She never does.

Obi-Wan Kenobi

You have failed, Ventress! Surrender!

Asajj Ventress

Never!

Obi-Wan Kenobi

Be on guard. These men are ferocious warriors, and they will show no mercy.

Anakin Skywalker

Don't worry. I won't start anything.

Obi-Wan Kenobi

So much for not starting something.

Anakin Skywalker

Hey, don't look at me.

Obi-Wan Kenobi

Don't harm them.

Anakin Skywalker

Don't tell me. Tell them.

Anakin Skywalker

Who is Mother Talzin?

Obi-Wan Kenobi

She's the leader of an ancient order of witches, the nightsisters.

Anakin Skywalker

Great. Warrior-like men, witches-- Oh, this place is all kinds of fun.

Obi-Wan Kenobi

I'm glad you think so.

Obi-Wan Kenobi

I don't know much about Mother Talzin, but I don't expect to be welcome here.

Anakin Skywalker

[Chuckles] You never know. I tend to be popular with the ladies.

Obi-Wan Kenobi

Too popular.

[as Anakin points his lightsaber at the Father's face] Cannot sleep? To strike an unarmed man is hardly the Jedi way.

Anakin

You're a Sith Lord!

You have a very simple view of the universe. I am neither Sith, nor Jedi. I am much more. And so are you.

Anakin

I see through your spells and visions, old man. Tell me what is going on here!

[grips Anakin's lightsaber blade with his bare hand] Some call us Force-wielders. [pushes the lightsaber blade back into its hilt, deactivating it]

Anakin Skywalker

Oh, come on, that's impossible. Something's wrong. We're at the exact coordinates where the distress signal originated, but there's nothing here. Rex is at the exact same coordinates, and he's not here.

Obi-Wan Kenobi

This is getting interesting.

Anakin Skywalker

Excuse me, who are you taking us to?

The Father, of course.

Ahsoka Tano

Of course.

Obi-Wan Kenobi

And what exactly are you?

We are the ones who guard the power. We are the middle, the beginning, and the end.

Anakin Skywalker

Glad she cleared that up for us.

Anakin Skywalker

I tasted only vengeance when I slaughtered so many to avenge your death.

It is time you realized that your guilt does not define you, my son. You define your guilt.

Anakin Skywalker

The only love I feel in my heart is haunted by what would happen, should I let go.

Then it is not love. It is a prison.

Anakin Skywalker

But I have a wife. You've met her. She's everything to me.

She is not your destiny.

Anakin Skywalker

But I love her!

Anakin Skywalker

Yeah, but our friend has run off! Go back to the ship and try sending another distress call. I'll follow her and find out how to get off this rock.

Obi-Wan Kenobi

And if this is a trap?

Anakin Skywalker

Then I'm not gonna wait around to find out.

Ahsoka Tano

Do not trust him.

Anakin Skywalker

You think?

I have ordered my children to kill your friends. The question is... which one will you choose to save - your master... or your apprentice? You must now release the guilt and free yourself by choosing.

Anakin Skywalker

No!

Obi-Wan Kenobi

Their powers are too strong for us, Anakin! Save Ahsoka!

Ahsoka Tano

Aah!

Anakin Skywalker

Let them go.

Only you can make my children release them.

Obi-Wan Kenobi

Anakin! The planet is the Force. Use it.

Anakin Skywalker

You will let them go! [...] ON YOUR KNEES! [the Daughter and the Son forcibly fall on their knees]

And now you see who you truly are. Only the Chosen One could tame both my children.

It has been foretold. The chosen one will remain to keep my children in balance.

Anakin Skywalker

No.

I cannot force you to do this. The choice must be yours. But leave and your selfishness shall haunt you and the galaxy.
