Qui-Gon Jinn
- Qui-Gon Jinn: Don't center on your anxieties, Obi-Wan. Keep your concentration here and now, where it belongs.
- Obi-Wan Kenobi: But Master Yoda said I should be *mindful* of the future.
- Qui-Gon Jinn: But not at the expense of the moment. Be mindful of the living Force, young Padawan.
- Anakin Skywalker: You're a Jedi Knight, aren't you?
- Qui-Gon Jinn: What makes you think that?
- Anakin Skywalker: I saw your laser sword. Only Jedi carry that kind of weapon.
- Qui-Gon Jinn: Perhaps I killed a Jedi and took it from him.
- Anakin Skywalker: I don't think so. *No one* can kill a Jedi.
- Qui-Gon Jinn: I wish that were so.
- Jar Jar Binks: Ooh, mooey mooey, I love you!
- Qui-Gon Jinn: You almost got us killed! Are you brainless?
- Jar Jar Binks: I spake!
- Qui-Gon Jinn: The ability to speak does not make you intelligent. Now get out of here.
- Qui-Gon Jinn: You must have Jedi reflexes if you race pods.
- [Jar Jar tries to grab a piece of fruit with his tongue, but Qui-Gon catches it]
- Qui-Gon Jinn: Don't do that again.
- Watto: How's-a you gonna pay for all this, eh?
- Qui-Gon Jinn: I have 20,000 Republic dataries.
- Watto: Republic credits? Republic credits are no good out here. I need something more real.
- Qui-Gon Jinn: I don't have anything else, but...
- [waves his hand]
- Qui-Gon Jinn: ... credits will do fine.
- Watto: No, they won't-a.
- Qui-Gon Jinn: [waves his hand more firmly] Credits *will* do fine.
- Watto: No, they *won't-a*! What, you think you're some kind of Jedi, waving your hand around like that? I'm a Toydarian. Mind tricks don't-a work on me, only money! No money, no parts, no deal!
- Qui-Gon Jinn: [dying; mumbles as Obi-Wan sits him up after battle with Darth Maul] Uhh, it's too late, it...
- Obi-Wan Kenobi: No!
- Qui-Gon Jinn: Obi-Wan, promise... promise me you will train the boy.
- Obi-Wan Kenobi: [nods] Yes, Master.
- Qui-Gon Jinn: [wiping a tear from Obi-Wan's right cheek] He... is the chosen one. He... will bring balance. Train him.
- [Obi-Wan nods as Qui-Gon does and then cries over his body]
- Anakin: What about Mom? Is she free too?
- Qui-Gon Jinn: I tried to free your mother, Ani, but Watto wouldn't have it.
- Anakin: You're coming with us, aren't you, Mom?
- Shmi Skywalker: Son, my place is here. My future is here. It is time for you to let go.
- [first lines]
- Qui-Gon Jinn: Captain.
- Republic Cruiser Captain: Yes, sir?
- Qui-Gon Jinn: Tell them we wish to board at once.
- Republic Cruiser Captain: [to communication device] With all due respect, the ambassadors for the Supreme Chancellor wish to board immediately.
- Nute Gunray: [on view screen] Yes, of course. As you know, our blockade is perfectly legal and we'd be happy to receive the ambassadors.
- 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.
- Yoda: A vergence, you say?
- Mace Windu: Located around a person?
- Qui-Gon Jinn: A boy. His cells have the highest concentration 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?
- Padmé: Are you sure about this? Trusting our fate to a boy we hardly know? The queen will not approve.
- Qui-Gon Jinn: The queen doesn't need to know.
- Padmé: Well, *I* don't approve.
- Qui-Gon Jinn: The Force is unusually strong with him. That much is clear. Who was his father?
- Shmi Skywalker: There was no father. I carried him, I gave birth, I raised him. I can't explain what happened.
- Qui-Gon Jinn: I'm not allowed to train you, so I want you to watch me and be mindful. Always remember, your focus determines your reality.
