Over the course of Star Wars Celebration, there were many projects announced, shown trailers of, and spoken about that look like they could be all-time great pieces of the franchise. Already, fans are anticipating how memorable these projects will be, and one element of them that will likely deliver is memorable quotes, of which Star Wars has hundreds, many of which have been ranked by Ranker.
In one of their user-voted polls, they focus on the best one-liner quotes from the Galaxy far, far away, which just happen to be where many of the best Star Wars quotes come from - even though Star Wars TV and two of the three trilogies are wrongfully shunned.
There is an argument to be made that Yoda has more iconic Star Wars quotes than any other character in the franchise, and this little joke directed at Luke in
The franchise is full of great insults and it is its own colloquialisms that fans adore that are often the funniest Star Wars quotes. There may be none better - indeed, none more evocative - than this insult hurled at Han Solo by Leia in
Gial Ackbar is one of the most iconic characters in Star Wars history, instantly recognizable as the Mon Calamari Admiral who played a role in the Batte of Endor. However, it is no secret that much of his memorability comes from this one-liner.
The Jedi Mind Trick is one of the first times many Star Wars fans will have ever seen the Force in action, and it is masterfully done. Scenes like this often have such a visceral reaction from fans, taking them back to childhood, so it is no wonder the quote is remembered by Star Wars as one of Obi-Wan"s best.
The Empire Strikes Back is not just one of the greatest films of all time, but one of the most important as it proved the staying power of Star Wars and, similarly to its predecessor, further showed the potential of what blockbusters could be. It also has the most famous twist in cinema history.
The duel between Luke and Vader on Bespin is one of the best in all of Star Wars, and it is capped off fittingly and wonderfully by their exchange as Vader towers over who is revealed to be his son. Even though it is so often misquoted, there is not a Star Warsfan out there who will ever forget this moment - particularly those who did not know beforehand.
In some form or another, "I"ve got a bad feeling about this" has appeared in every medium of Star Wars,and in the original trilogy, it is both prominent and memorable.
The quote is first delivered by Luke Skywalker in A New Hope, followed by the likes of Han, Leia, Obi-Wan, Anakin, and more. It has become almost the quintessential Star Wars one-liner alongside "May the Force be with you," and it gives fans a sly smile every time it pops up in a new project.
Despite all the brilliance uttered by the mysterious Jedi Grandmaster, though, "Do, or do not, there is no try" is the important message that has stuck with the most amount of fans the longest. It very well could be the best quote in Star Wars, certainly deemed the best one-liner by Ranker.
Speaking of Vader"s sorcerous ways, sometimes fans forget that the path of the Jedi/Sith has more than a few religious elements present than they thought. And as they say, faith has the power to move mountains. While the Death Star was certainly one of the most intimidating features in any sci-fi flick, one person well-gifted and practiced in the way of the Force has certainly proven to be quite devastating as well.
The Sith have shown some sense of humor, but how about those noble warriors on the Light Side of the Force? Jar-Jar Binks is not the most beloved creature in the Star Warsuniverse, so verbal jabs at the Jedi"s froggy friend inThe Phantom Menaceare practically expected. However, this beautiful barb by Qui-Gon Jinn not only proves true for the goofy Gungan but other slow-witted species one might meet in their galaxy.
This is the path to the Dark Side. Out of all the quotes in the Star Warsuniverse, this one is perhaps the most stunning and tragically true. Not only is it applicable on a philosophical level, but viewers and fans see it truly unfold in the life of Anakin Skywalker. It was these words that permanently and perfectly captured the dangers of the Dark Side potential in everyone.
Proclaiming the existence of another universe in a galaxy far, far away, George Lucas and Lucasfilm introduced us to The Force, droids, spaceships, the Death Star, and the ongoing battle between Jedi and Sith.
Whichever trilogy is your favorite, and whether you go all out in celebrating the Star Wars Universe on May 4th or not, we’ve collected the very best Star Wars quotes together in one place.
From Jedi Masters and Sith Lords; Queens, Princesses, and Emperors to conmen and rebels, the residents of the Star Wars universe have made us laugh and cry. These are some of the best Star Wars quotes from all three trilogies!
Characters like Han Solo, Darth Vader, and Yoda are all cultural icons that are deliver some of the most recognizable and memorable Star Wars quotes of all.
It’s the ship that made the Kessel Run in less than twelve parsecs! I’ve outrun Imperial starships, not the local bulk-cruisers, mind you. I’m talking about the big Corellian ships now. She’s fast enough for you, old man.
Traveling through hyperspace ain’t like dusting crops, boy. Without precise calculations we could fly right through a star or bounce too close to a supernova, and that’d end your trip real quick, wouldn’t it?
Small in size, but large in the Force, Yoda offers the wisdom of hundreds of years of Jedi training. Some of the most profoundly wise Star Wars quotes come from Master Yoda.

Over eleven movies, Star Wars has treated fans to some great quotes from across the franchise. We have made them into jokes, memes, inspirational wall hangings, screensavers, ugly Christmas sweaters, and—not kidding—even helped this writer pass a 10th-grade World History test! (more about that later.)
The Star Wars: Rebels and The Clone Wars series have a lot of great ones, too, but for this list, we’ll stick to my favorites from the big screen. Your list is probably different, but that’s alright. Ready? Here we go. Punch it, Chewie!
For all we know, everything our beloved Wookie said was the most eloquent of anything ever written in Star Wars history. Problem is, only Han Solo and a handful of others knew what the fan-favorite fuzzballwas talking about. The only thing keeping his silver-tongued orations from my list is, well, honestly I’m one of those who doesn’t know what the heck he was saying. It doesn’t matter though… we all loved him anyway.
Fully expecting a bright red “F” at the top of my paper, I was astonished to find I passed with a B+ and a smiley face. Whether he actually read what I wrote or just saw I had written a bunch of words, or maybe as big of a Star Wars fan as me is a mystery that no one will ever know. Bottom line: I passed. Thank you, George Lucas—and Mr. Saltzgaver.
Though not all Star Wars characters get significant screen time and a fleshed-out backstory, we have a special place in our hearts for the more obscure faces of the galaxy. If you think you’re truly great at remembering who muttered even the most minuscule lines, we have a quiz for you! Try your luck below — and for a spotlight on one of our favorite unsung heroes, check out Elan Sleazebaggano on The Star Wars Show this week!
Need to read the bestStar Warsquotes you do. That anyone is able to understand that sentence is a testament to the lasting impact of the Star Warsmovies. For me, the Star Warsmovies hold the answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything (shoot, I"m mixing my galaxies), or at minimum pack in romance, sarcasm, heartbreak, drama and every emotion in between. Like Star Wars GIFs, their wide appeal is why so many people deploy them in everyday life and inevitably get them tattooed on their bodies. To get you excited for Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, I present to you the definitive best (i.e., my favorite, an objective measure of brilliance in my household) quotes from the movies collectively known as the "Skywalker Saga."
This line is delivered by Padmé Amidala after the announcement of the formation of the Galactic Empire to, you guessed it, thunderous applause. And it would have been a line I only found chilling in the context of my Star Wars pals had the last Presidential election not gone as it did. I"m not going to make the direct leap to "our lives are exactly Star Wars and here"s why" or anything like that but it"s a line I"ve come back to frequently since 2016.
"...It"s a space station." Obi-Wan sets us up with the perfect, simple, chilling phrase in "A New Hope." My favorite part of this quote might be Han"s face as Obi-Wan"s delivering this line. Or I might just love this quote because it"s coming from Alec Guinness (Genuine Class for you Simpsons fans). I"ve seen this phrase pop up on a lot of pregnancy shirts (where the unborn child is the Death Star) and I"ve seen it pop up in real life whenever some large thing in the sky looks like a moon but isn"t (it"s usually some big round thing that I have no idea what it actually is).
This is one of those Star Wars lines that has completely taken on a life of its own. Did you know Harrison Ford ad-libbed this line? Of course you did! It doesn"t make it any less good. Leia says, "I love you" and Han, as he"s about to be frozen in carbonite says simply, "I know." it"s an incredible move of confidence and I"m sorry but I have to support it (especially because my wedding band is engraved with "I know" and my husband"s wedding band has, you guessed it, "I love you"). But I love even more in Return of the Jediwhen Leia pulls a Han on Han himself. This time he says "I love you" and she says "I know" and the thing is...Leia and Han get me every single time.
This is the hill I will die on. This is the best, most iconic, easiest to quoteStar Wars line in history. It"s fun to talk like Admiral Ackbar. It"s also fun to watch Admiral Ackbar say this line. It"s also, also fun to say this about any email from someone you haven"t heard from in over five years. All of these lines are things I personally say all the time and hopefully now you can be as annoying to your loved ones as I am to mine.
According to Lucasfilm, National Star Wars Day officially occurs on May 25, the anniversary of the release of the epic space opera in 1977. But May 25 is already taken up by Towel Day, a tribute to "Hitchhiker"s Guide to the Galaxy" author Douglas Adams.
Variations of this foreboding expression appear throughout the Star Wars saga. In "A New Hope," Luke says it as the Millennium Falcon approaches the Death Star, and then Han says it just before the walls of the trash compactor begin to close. In "The Empire Strikes Back," Leia says it in the belly of the giant asteroid slug. In "Return of the Jedi," C3PO says it as he enters Jabba"s palace, and then Han says it again after the Ewoks capture the Endor strike team. In the prequels, the line is delivered twice by Obi-Wan and once by Anakin.
The line has been said by at least one character in each of the Star Wars movies. Viewers heard it first from Jan Dodonna in "A New Hope," after the Alliance general explained the attack plan on the Death Star.
