Who we are

You're all clear, kid. Let's blow this thing and go home! Escape is not his plan. I must face him, alone. Leave that to me. Send a distress signal, and inform the Senate that all on board were killed. As you wish. Ye-ha! I need your help, Luke. She needs your help. I'm getting too old for this sort of thing. Obi-Wan is here. I suggest you try it again, Luke. This time, let go your conscious self and act on instinct. The more you tighten your grip, Tarkin, the more star systems will slip through your fingers.

Why we do it

But with the blast shield down, I can't even see! How am I supposed to fight? I want to come with you to Alderaan. There's nothing for me here now. I want to learn the ways of the Force and be a Jedi, like my father before me. I'm surprised you had the courage to take the responsibility yourself. But with the blast shield down, I can't even see! How am I supposed to fight? I call it luck. I'm trying not to, kid. The Force is strong with this one. I have you now.

When not working

Don't be too proud of this technological terror you've constructed. The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant next to the power of the Force. In my experience, there is no such thing as luck. A tremor in the Force. The last time I felt it was in the presence of my old master. The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant next to the power of the Force. Escape is not his plan. You weren't on any mercy mission this time. Several transmissions were beamed to this ship by Rebel spies.
