Obi-Wan Kenobi quotes from Star Wars: The Clone Wars

Are you all right, sir?

Obi-Wan

No. We're right back where we started. Call the cruisers. See if they can catch that ship.

Right away, sir.

Obi-Wan Kenobi

And tell them to send someone to pick us up.

Duchess Satine

Well, Master Kenobi, my shining Jedi Knight to the rescue again.

Obi-Wan Kenobi

After all these years, you're even more beautiful than ever.

Duchess Satine

Kind words for a man who accuses me of treachery.

Duchess Satine

Remember that you are here under my protection. Please try not to cause problems where none yet exist.

Obi-Wan Kenobi

Think of me as searching for solutions.

Duchess Satine

I have to tell you, I'm opposed to all of this.

Obi-Wan Kenobi

I'd be disappointed if you weren't.

Duchess Satine

For a man sworn to peace, you take an unseemly pleasure in the injuries of others.

Obi-Wan

For a woman sworn to non-violence, you don't seem troubled that I could have been killed.

Duchess Satine

But you weren't. And yet I still haven't heard any thanks.

Obi-Wan

Well, you certainly haven't changed much.

Obi-Wan Kenobi

A peacekeeper belongs on the front lines of conflict. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to do his job.

Duchess Satine

The work of a peacemaker is to make sure that conflict does not arise.

Obi-Wan Kenobi

Yes, a noble description, but not a realistic one.

Duchess Satine

Is reality what makes a Jedi abondon his ideals? Or is it simply a response to political convenience?

Duchess Satine

You are quite the general now, aren't you, Master Kenobi?

Obi-Wan Kenobi

Forgive me for interrupting, Your Highness, I meant no disrespect.

Duchess Satine

Senators, I presume you are acquainted with the collection of half-truths and hyperbole known as Obi-Wan Kenobi?

Obi-Wan Kenobi

Your Highness is too kind.

Duchess Satine

You're right, I am.

Anakin Skywalker

You and Satine have a history.

Obi-Wan Kenobi

An extended mission when I was younger. Master Qui-Gon and I spent a year on Mandalore, protecting the Duchess from insurgents who had threatened her world. They sent bounty hunters after us. We were always on the run, living hand to mouth, never sure what the next day would bring.

Anakin Skywalker

[smirks] Sounds romantic.

Obi-Wan Kenobi

A Republic military presence is the only sure defense against the Separatists.

Duchess Satine

[starts down a set of stairs toward Obi-Wan] Even extremists can be reasoned with.

Obi-Wan Kenobi

Perhaps if one can be heard over the clanking of their battle droids.

The sarcasm of a soldier. [comes to stand in front of Obi-Wan, glaring]

Obi-Wan Kenobi

The delusion of a dreamer. [the pair glare at each other]

Duchess, Master Jedi, it's been a long trip. I think we can all use a little rest and refreshment.

Hear, hear. Now, let us put politics aside until after dinner.

[both look at Orn Free Taa] FINE! [Satine storms around Obi-Wan]

Anakin Skywalker

This may not be the time to ask... but were you and Satine ever— [cut off by Obi-Wan]

Obi-Wan Kenobi

[angrily] I don't see how that has any bearing on the situation at hand!

Anakin Skywalker

I'll take care of this, Obi-Wan. You, go find your girlfriend. [he runs away]

Obi-Wan Kenobi

Right. [looks back, calls after Anakin] Ah, no, Anakin! She's not my — [cuts himself off, turning to run off in exasperation in opposite direction]

Say farewell, Duchess!

Duchess Satine

Obi, it looks like I may never see you again. I don't know quite how to say this but, I've loved you ever since you came to my aid, all those years ago!

[in disgust] I don't believe this....

Obi-Wan Kenobi

Satine, this is hardly the time or place for — [looks at Satine's face] — all right... Had you said the word, I would have left the Jedi Order.

[sarcastically] That is touching! Truly it is. But it's making me sick! And we really must be going!

Duchess Satine

[scoffs] You have the romantic soul of a slug, Merrik! [stomps on his foot and gets away, holding gun on Merrik] And slugs are so often trod upon!

Interesting turnabout. But even if I do not deliver the Duchess alive to the Separatists, I still win. The second I'm away, I'll hit the remote and blow the Coronet to bits.

Duchess Satine

I will not allow that.

What will you do? If you shoot me, you prove yourself a hypocrite to every pacifist ideal you hold dear. And you, Kenobi, you are no stranger to violence. You’d be hailed as a hero by everyone on this ship... Almost everyone. Come on, then. Who will strike the first and brand themselves a cold-blooded killer? [Anakin sneaks up behind Merrik behind and stabs him in the chest with his lightsaber, catching the detonator before it hits the ground as Tal drops to the floor.]

Obi-Wan Kenobi

Anakin...

Anakin Skywalker

What? He was going to blow up the ship.

Obi-Wan Kenobi

Just like that swarm of venom-mites on Draboon, remember?

Duchess Satine

How could I forget? I still have the scar.

Obi-Wan Kenobi

Begging your pardon, Duchess. I distinctly remember carrying you to safety.

Duchess Satine

I meant the scar I got after you fell and dropped me.

Obi-Wan Kenobi

Oh, yes.

Obi-Wan Kenobi

Anakin, Tal Merrik is the traitor, and he's taken Satine hostage.

Anakin Skywalker

Copy that, but I got problems of my own right now.

Obi-Wan Kenobi

Do you always carry a deactivator?

Duchess Satine

Just because I'm a pacifist doesn't mean I won't defend myself.

Obi-Wan Kenobi

Now you sound like a Jedi.

Duchess Satine

How ironic to meet again only to find we're on opposing sides.

Obi-Wan Kenobi

The needs of your people are all that matter. They couldn't be in better hands with you to guide their future.

Duchess Satine

Kind words indeed from a mindful and committed Jedi. And yet. . .

Obi-Wan Kenobi

What?

Duchess Satine

I'm still not sure about the beard.

Obi-Wan Kenobi

Why? What's wrong with it?

Duchess Satine

It hides too much of your handsome face.

Obi-Wan Kenobi

I just heard what happened in the Senate.

Duchess Satine

You're sweet to be concerned. But I promise I'll be all right.

Obi-Wan Kenobi

I am concerned. We're friends, are we not?

Duchess Satine

Yes, friends, and nothing more.
