Hate leads to the Dark Side

Yoda: "Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to suffering."

Luke: "Is the dark side stronger?"
Yoda: "No, no, no. Quicker, easier, more seductive."
Luke: "But how am I to know the good side from the bad?"
Yoda: "You will know ... when you are calm, at peace, passive. A Jedi uses the Force for knowledge and defense, NEVER for attack."

Yoda: "In the end, cowards are those who follow the dark side."

Yes ... it's a Sunday afternoon Star Wars marathon.

"So this is how democracy dies...."

As the health care bill passed the 216-vote mark in the House a little before 11:00 pm, there was wild applause and cheering in the Chamber from Democrats. It brought to mind Star Wars:

"So this is how liberty dies ... with thunderous applause." -- Padmé

It's a Star Wars weekend at our house

"Fear is the path to the Dark Side.
Fear leads to anger ... anger leads to hate ... hate leads to suffering."

"Use the Force, Luke"

"Use the Force, Luke."

Good vs evil ... corruption vs right.
