  32. PALPATINE: My mentor taught me everything about the Force. Even the nature of the dark side.
  33. PALPATINE: Anakin, if one is to understand the great mystery, one must study all its aspects, not just the dogmatic, narrow view of the Jedi. If you wish to become a complete and wise leader, you must embrace a larger view of the Force. Be careful of the Jedi, Anakin. Only through me can you achieve a power greater than any Jedi. Learn to know the dark side of the Force, and you will be able to save your wife from certain death.
  34. PALPATINE: Use my knowledge, I beg you . . .
  35. PALPATINE: I know what has been troubling you. Listen to me. Don’t continue to be a pawn of the Jedi Council! Ever since I’ve known you, you’ve been searching for a life greater than that of an ordinary Jedi. A life of significance, of conscience.

  41. PALPATINE: I–I–I–I can’t. I–I–I’m weak.
  42. PALPATINE: I–I–I can’t hold on any longer.
  43. PALPATINE: I’m too weak. Oh. Don’t kill me. Please.

  50. PALPATINE: Every single Jedi, including your friend Obi-Wan Kenobi, is now an enemy of the Republic.
  51. PALPATINE: We must move quickly. The Jedi are relentless. If they are not all destroyed, it will be civil war without end. First, I want you to go to the Jedi Temple. We will catch them off balance. Do what must be done, Lord Vader. Do not hesitate. Show no mercy. Only then will you be strong enough with the dark side to save Padme.
  52. PALPATINE: Their betrayal will be dealt with. After you have killed all the Jedi in the Temple, go to the Mustafar system. Wipeout Viceroy Gunray and the other Separatist leaders. Once more, the Sith will rule the galaxy, and we shall have peace.
