Top Star Wars: The Force Awakens Quotes
[opening crawl] A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away… Luke Skywalker has vanished. In his absence, the sinister FIRST ORDER has risen from the ashes of the Empire and will not rest until Skywalker, the last Jedi, has been destroyed. With the support of the REPUBLIC, General Leia Organa leads a brave RESISTANCE. She is desperate to find her brother Luke and gain his help in restoring peace and justice to the galaxy. Leia has sent her most daring pilot on a secret mission to Jakku, where an old ally has discovered a clue to Luke’s whereabouts…
Lor San Tekka: This will begin to make things right. I’ve traveled too far and seen too much to ignore the despair in the Galaxy. Without the Jedi, there can be no balance in the Force.
Poe Dameron: Well, because of you, now we have a chance. The general has been after for this for a long time.
Lor San Tekka: The General? To me she’s royalty.
Poe Dameron: Well, she certainly is that.
Poe Dameron: Come on BB-8, hurry! I see him!
Poe Dameron: [to BB-8, referring to the map] You take this, it’s safer with you than it’s with me. You get as far away from here as you can. Do you hear me? I’ll come back for you! You’ll be alright
Kylo Ren: Look how old you’ve become.
Lor San Tekka: Something far worse has happened to you.
Lor San Tekka: The First Order rose from the Dark Side. You did not.
Kylo Ren: I’ll show you the Dark Side.
Lor San Tekka: You may try, but you cannot deny the truth that is your family.
Kylo Ren: [as he executes Lor San Tekka with his lightsaber] You’re so right.
Poe Dameron: [to Kylo] So who talks first? Do you talk first? I talk first?
Rey: [to BB-8] That’s just a Teedo. Wants you for parts. He has no respect for anyone. Your antenna’s bent.
Rey: [fixes BB-8’s antenna] Where do you come from?
Rey: [as BB-8 beeps his reply] Classified, really? Me too. Big secret.
Kylo Ren: I’m impressed. No one has been able to get out of you what you did with the map.
Poe Dameron: You might want to rethink your technique.
Rey: [to BB-8] Don’t give up hope, he still might show up, whoever it’s you’re waiting for. Classified. I know all about waiting
Finn: [takes off his helmet] This is a rescue. I’m helping you escape. Can you fly a TIE fighter?
Poe Dameron: You’re with the Resistance?
Finn: What? No, no, no. I’m breaking you out.
Finn: Can you fly a TIE fighter?
Poe Dameron: I can fly anything. Why? Why are you helping me?
Finn: Because it’s the right thing to do.
Poe Dameron: Hey, what’s your name?
Finn: FN-2187.
Poe Dameron: F… What?
Poe Dameron: FN, huh? Finn. I’m going to call you Finn. Is that alright?
Finn: Finn. Yeah! Finn. I like that! I like that.
Poe Dameron: That’s right. He’s a BB unit, orange and white. One of a kind.
Finn: I don’t care what color he is! No droid can be that important!
Poe Dameron: This one is, pal!
Poe Dameron: The droid has a map that leads straight to Luke Skywalker.
Finn: Oh, you got to be kidding me!
Finn: [referring to the jacket] It belongs to Poe Dameron. That was his name, right? He was captured by the First Order. I helped him escape, but our ship crashed. Poe didn’t make it. I tried to help him but I’m sorry.
[BB-8 rolls off in sadness]
Finn: You don’t know a thing about me, what I’ve seen.
Supreme Leader Snoke: There’s been an awakening. Have you felt it?
Kylo Ren: Yes.
Rey: They were stories about what happened.
Han Solo: The force. It’s true. All of it. The Dark Side. A Jedi. They’re real.
Han Solo: You sure you’re up for this?
Finn: Hell, no.
Finn: We’ll figure it out, we’ll use the Force!
Han Solo: That’s not how the Force works!
Finn: [as they’re running away from the explosion] What about that ship?
Rey: That one’s garbage!
Finn: [as the ship the is blown up, they run to the Millennium Falcon] The garbage will do!
Han Solo: Chewie, we’re home.
Rey: This is the Millennium Falcon! You’re Han Solo!
Han Solo: I used to be.
Han Solo: I’ve got a bad feeling about this.
Han Solo: [to Rey and Finn] Escape now. Hug later.
Maz Kanata: Han Solo! Where’s my boyfriend?
Han Solo: Chewie’s working on the ship.
Maz Kanata: Who are you?
Rey: I’m no one.
Maz Kanata: The force, it’s calling to you. Just let it in.
Maz Kanata: [to Finn] If you live long enough, you see the same eyes in different people. I’m looking at the eyes of a man who wants to run.
Maz Kanata: Dear child. I see your eyes. You already know the truth. Whomever you’re waiting for on Jakku, they’re never coming back. But there’s someone who still could.
Rey: Luke.
Maz Kanata: The belonging you seek is not behind you, it is ahead. I am no Jedi, but I know the Force. It moves through and surrounds every living thing. Close your eyes. Feel it. The light, it’s always been there. It will guide you.
Maz Kanata: You must face them, fight them!
Rey: [using her Force powers] You will remove these restraints and leave this cell with the door open.
Stormtrooper: I will tighten these restraints, scavenger scum!
Rey: You will remove these restraints and leave this cell with the door open.
Stormtrooper: I will remove these restraints and leave this cell with the door open.
Rey: And you will drop your weapon.
Stormtrooper: And I’ll drop my weapon.
Kylo Ren: [talking to Vader’s burnt helmeet] Forgive me. I feel it again, the call from light. Supreme Leader senses it. Show me again, the power of the darkness, and I’ll let nothing stand in our way. Show me, grandfather, and I will finish what you started.
Leia: You know, as much as we fought, I always hated it when you left.
Han Solo: That’s why I did it, so that you’d miss me.
Leia: I do miss you.
Finn: Hey, Solo. I’m not sure what we’re walking into here…
Han Solo: Did you just call me Solo?
Finn: I’m sorry, Han. Mr. Solo. You should know I’m a big deal in the Resistance, which puts a real target on my back. Are there any conspirators here? Like First Order sympathizers?
Han Solo: Women always figure out the truth. Always.
Finn: I was raised to do one thing, but I’ve got nothing to fight for.
Finn: [referring to Chewie ] I need help with this big hairy thing!
Leia: Hope is not lost today, it is found.
