[RustleXer]

[AMD2ARC]

"Do or Do not. There is no try."- Yoda

"Only the Sith deal in absolutes"- Obi-Wan

Therefor Yoda is a Sith.

[Kudoichi92]

@AMD2ARC Looool Dude xD

[Worfox13]

@AMD2ARC Isn't "Only the Sith deal in absolutes" an absolute statement, in itself?

[withoutreasonorrhyme]

@AMD2ARC Sith and Force are the same, only different in your mind. You must unlearn what you have learned.

[AMD2ARC]

@withoutreasonorrhyme Ah learned the path of nihilism you have.

[TheAmzngBruce]

@AMD2ARC uh duh

[suryaji2]

@AMD2ARC they are both master of force on deals in absolute and one deal in abosolute truth... ..

[sonicteam2k1]

that's some powerful shit

[evangelion10119]

it kills me when people quote this as dumbledore...

[wcoynelloyd]

0:32

[xPyroxx]

I used to talk like Yoda, then I took an arrow in the knee.

[druidboy76]

@xPyroxx The arrow in the knee bullshit is BEYOND tired.

[xPyroxx]

@druidboy76 It wasn't 3 weeks ago. Lol.

[Taattis]

0:34 For the "Do or do not" part.

[MrMIRAGE92]

Best star wars quote ever

[Taterbug889]

I got this in a fortune cookie today.

[fizz113]

0:42 seconds off I will take

[Ricochet1665]

If your girlfriend says "do or do not there is no try" do not yell "where the hell did you hear that!" as my mate Dave has found out; dumb bastard XD

[WilliamRLBaker]

Yoda was a sith....

[crzyflasher]

@WilliamRLBaker of course not... siths can't reach the level of bad assness that is yoda

[NitsuaXepher]

Four people Did not

[Makohachi]

there is no try... only fail.

[ImCmdrShepard1]

only sith deal in absolutes.

[FlygonFriend76]

Live by this lesson I do

[swtrooper11]

@FlygonFriend76 me too !

[utubejohnny1]

That is where you fail.

[64wulf]

Did lucas even come up with this line? It sounds to good for him to have created it.

[megaexplosions]

speak backwards i do, and thumbs up people will.

[KingDinoBravo]

I've said it once & I'll say it again..........YODA was a BAAAAADD GREEN LITTLE MUTHA[bleeeepp]!!........You GO, Yoda!!.....And STOP with the BUTs & CAN'Ts & MAYBEs!!.....Just *DO IT* & Shut the Eff Up!!!!

[ihaterobbie123]

ONLY A SITH DEALS IN ABSOLUTES!

[XOshamelessXO]

ok ill try and find a film better than star wars...

no....do or do not...there is no try..

ok...no cant find one

[Rainb0wSeven]

These are words that many employers feel like using on particularly lazy/stupid employees.

[innismor11]

@Rainb0wSeven I do use with it with staff. But it has not (in my view, and with them) to do with laziness or lack of intelligence. It is a point about resolve and commitment and confidence and "self-assertiveness". Committing oneself only to 'try' means half-hearted effort.

[Rainb0wSeven]

@innismor11

Yeah...and half-hearted efforts are frequently made by lazy employees. (Or Government drones.)

[mayssm]

My wife just said she will try and not use the credit card. I said "Do or do not! There is no try."

[innismor11]

@mayssm I sure wouldn't try that with mine. It would be do, do, do and more do, lol!

[TonyMaster007]

BTW, I see a lot of Yoda speaks in riddles here, and that he tried and failed in the prequels. Uh yeah, and he's learned from those mistakes, and is passing them on in these films. Also, I know that Siths only deal in absolutes-but that line is being taken out of context. That line has to do more with good/evil. I've always used Yoda's line for my dreams, although you can also use them when discussing a moral sitation. For example: I "try" to do the right thing should be I'll do the right thing

[TonyMaster007]

4 people dislike this.

LIKE OR LOVE, THERE IS NO DISLIKE

[Adrian22Frets]

@IFollowJehovah Really? So this 'being realistic' thing has always been worldwide? lol It always goes like this: I say: "you're just being pessimistic based on your past experience", they answer: "no, I'm being realistic", then I say: "that's what pessimistic people always say". Sometimes I can even anticipate the 'being realistic' expression and I automatically win the argument. Gotta kill the buzzkill, without the right frame of mind difficult things cannot be accomplished

[FooFilmOfficial]

This is what I say when people tell me Obama is trying.

[HEC01]

This quote from Yoda I like. Applicable in everyday situations Can be.

[svkt28]

Joker quoted the line in Batman Arkham Asylum.

[serumclx]

does any one think that yoda is a sage?

[Adennos]

Star Wars is way more than just one of the best trilogies ever...

[LightningIrving]

So exactly what abilities does Luke acquire on Dagobah? All of the ones he currently has? Or does he learn new ones after he leaves? I haven't watched the entire series and wouldn't know where to start looking, so I was just wondering if I could get some answers here instead.

[scwt89]

@LightningIrving the only training the movie really shows is luke running around, telepathically moving things while standing on his head and hallucinating fighting darth vader and seeing his own face on vader's mask. he was an excellent pilot before dagobah, and he was capable of force-moving objects before he got there, so it's not really clear. he probably learned mind tricks and lightsaber techniques, but that was never shown.

[TheDukeOfCastleWolf]

We know is fiction but, I totally agree with Yoda's words: "Do or Do Not, There is No try...that's life man...

[DementalMusic]

Four people turned to the dark side

[cartwright324]

Sound like the Cookie Monster I do.

[BoomShakaKaka]

thumbs up for 70's yoda anyone?

[rduncan999]

@BoomShakaKaka to bad its 80's yoda...



[spacejesusadventure]

@rduncan999 It was filmed in the 70s.

[MyPantsAreSomewhere]

@BoomShakaKaka This is 80's

[BoomShakaKaka]

@MyPantsAreSomewhere shut up

[MyPantsAreSomewhere]

@BoomShakaKaka Wow someones a prick.

[BoomShakaKaka]

@BoomShakaKaka jk ur probobly right it was just a guess :D

[Kalrec1]

@BoomShakaKaka 1980 actually.

[cinemalego]

@BoomShakaKaka Actually, 1980

[bradyfitzy]

@BoomShakaKaka the first time you see him is in the 80`s

[tHickman95]

@BoomShakaKaka Empire strikes back was 1980.

[TheRipperRypien]

Do or do not. There is no try. -Yoda

Only the Sith deal in absolutes.

Your move Yoda.

[suzettegm]

Yoda or yoga ? :-)

[eXAKR]

I'm not a Star Wars fan by any measure; in fact, I sometimes look down on some Star Wars fans as nerds. But this line - this one line - from the movie is so inspirational, it's one of the quotes that I live by.

[RequiumFrost]

@eXAKR Dont look down on us this movie, the entire series is inspirational, its about adventure creativity and the ever lasting battle of good and evil. 

[jelleaux]

@eXAKR Eh... that's like, cool, that you like the quote... but, um... not, that you look down on people for loving one of the greatest movies of all time. And uh, also... we kinda pride ourselves with being "Star Wars nerds." Just, you know. For future reference, or something. I think I've referred to myself as one three times today... without a hint of chagrin. :)

[paintmyturquoise]

<3 Yoda I love you

[radtech21]

I like the lines at the end of this scene better: "I DON'T BELIEVE IT."

"That, is why you fail."

[Pashanator]

what a fuckin awesome movie. The first three star wars are thee SHIT.

[CheetosForBreakfast]

@Pashanator fuck yes

[climbingstartshere]

3 people are still trying.

[Bribickhed6]

luke: I cant lift it. its too big.

(yoda lifts it out for him)

yoda: too big my ass

[goldenxninjaxchick]

Happy Intergalactic Star Wars Day everyone! May the 4th be with you :P

[jediewok16]

My parents tell me this all the time...

[superbolt2012]

smart people over here!

why are u still spending time on u tube?

[pulpnonfiction13]

this is the greatest quote in this history of the universe

[Mydane]

"Do or Do not. There is no try."

"Only a Sith deals in absolutes."

You make your own picture...

[Altairmod]

@Mydane "Only a Sith deals in absolutes" - That's an absolute, you know that, right ?

[Tom6093]

@Mydane " I have a bad feeling about this " Don't tell me the odds" "Get this walking carpet of my way" " May the force be with you" Droids don't tear your arms out of your sockets if they lose......Let the wookie win."

" I feel his presence" " Now young Skywalker, You must die"

[MickForjay]

@Tom6093 I have a bad feeling about the curry I just ate

[scarabmango]

Luke: Yeah, but where was that philosophy when you were fighting Darth Sid--Yoda: THE FUCK UP YOU WILL SHUT!!!

[dan4451]

@scarabmango dude that would be valid if it wasn't in any reference of episodes 1-3.

[scarabmango]

@dan4451 Some people may hate the prequels, but the bottom line is, they're canon. The events in them "happened" whether anyone but George Lucas likes it or not. Yoda's attitude is a bit hypocritical in light of the fact that he *himself* has tried and failed, yet he still wants to play the wise sage who speaks in fortune cookie riddles.

[immortalfrieza]

@scarabmango Yoda speaks in riddles in pretty much every type of Star Wars fiction that features him, he makes the riddles as vague and contradictory as he possibly can to make him appear wise when really he has no idea what he's talking about. By giving that kind of advice he ensures that he's right no matter what happens, it works a lot like prophecies in our world.

[hoaxmind53081]

3 proletariat try not

[Phranky]

Yoda is very Zen.

[1010soccerman]

By trying you are giving yourself an excuse for failure. By doing you are giving yourself no excuse for failure.

[TheThe1337]

3 people wanted to try

[capmconnundrum]

And this is why Yoda is a douchebag.

[yerfdog1935]

Why didn't he say "Trying there is not."? :P

[lalaxbo]

Yoda is my favorite Star Wars character ! :) Do ! Or do not ! There is no try ! Best quote ever by Yoda :)

[memokk]

Belive and it will come true. Doubt and you have already failed.

[hydrolito]

Most atheletes don't win an olympic gold medal or the super bowl, lots think they can do it but don't. There is a try I tried to graduate from high school and did it. You can think you can leviate things in the air but it's not going to happen.

[sec0ndevolution]

@hydrolito lol @ taking this video literally.

[eringryffin]

@hydrolito You're perfectly right in what you say. However, I think that's not what this is about. I think it's in the intention. Trying is letting us get away with it if we don't do it.

[memokk]

Trying is a wish, doing it , is a decision.

[KingOfKingz819]

i live my life based on 4 quotes from movies

this is one of the 4

[tonythetiger1man]

the great yoda speaks !!!

[Bulldog22031]

I live my life by this quote.

*rips off clothing and goes for a 15 degree 5k run.

[leschevauxdebois]

It gave me goosebumps.....-bows down to Yoda-

[SSQC23]

So much wisdom.

[Terangeree]

"There is no try"?

That would make for a rather dull Rugby match.

[Syaggedelic]

@Terangeree bahahaha

[jamescracksthesky]

i wish yoda was my grandfather

[pliskin100]

Too bad lucas ruined star wars

[matchbox2022]

full of awesome this is.

[ABRARKHANISM]

awesome full of this is.

[randomstuffdude1]

Yodas only normal sentence

[MrJumbolegz]

gee, thanks yoda. i've been doing it wrong all these years

[hell0kitje]

best movie quote ever...

[tefairman]

Master Yoda spittin wisdom

[ninjagaidenfreak08]

one of the most memroble incouraging quotes.

[kkwillsaveus]

'No, try not, do or do not, there is not try.' That line and mentality got me into university against all odds.

[Darthvies]

$DO || ! $DO ; try

try: command not found

[darthvader7888]

"Do or do not. There is no try"

25 years later...

"Only a sith deals in absolutes"

[sec0ndevolution]

@darthvader7888 Yoda was once an iconic figure of wisdom and reason; then Lucash turned him into a f***ing idiot in the prequels.

[bingleyy]

@darthvader7888 those are my two most favorite quotes from all the star wars movies! thumbs up!!!

[danakahebi]

@darthvader7888

You mean 25 years *earlier* right? Anyway, now he's old(er) and bitter, I guess. So a little sithness has crept in...

[darthvader7888]

@danakahebi

no, later, because the second quote was from episode 3, which game out 25 years after this movie. Oh, and it was Obi-Wan who said the second one, not Yoda.

[danakahebi]

@darthvader7888

Yes it was Obi-Wan, but I guess you are talking "real" time, while I was talking "in movie" time. Obi-Wan says that line to Anakin/Darth Vader and then later Yoda chats with Luke.  ...Okay, maybe not 25 years there, but who's counting right? ;)

Only a thith dealths in abstholuthes.

[tengolballer]

@darthvader7888 technically Obi Wan said the Sith/Absolutes comment before Yoda made his do or do not comment. maybe after Anakin turned, the jedi realized absolutes are the way to go.

[Treblaine]

@darthvader7888 Did Lucas not realise the contradiction in "Only a Sith deals in absolutes"

"only a sith..."

"ONLY!" - "ABSOLUTES!"

Fucking hell, the prequel trilogy sucked at the most basic things.

[lpsrocks1000]

i cant i have to give up i cant do it i cant play star wars on violin

[Raspout1981]

You must unlearrrrrnnnnn What you have Lerrrrrrrrrned !! Mouahahaa

[lampreynoise]

I love Mark Hamill. 

[intelligentbullet]

@orkneymist  Yoda is an illegal alien, that's why! Ya gotta be a citizen of the United States. Duh! LOL

[erdnallewen]

that is some deep shit

[angeltosome]

"No! No different! Only different in your mind. You must unlearn what you have learned."

They need to teach this kind of shit in schools.

[terminaterjohn]

@angeltosome Everybodyy would be too smart. lolol

[KingoftheGods123]

@angeltosome

fuck yer



[stephankaradja]

@angeltosome And end up with pussy asses like Skywalker? No. We need our teachers to take a leaf out of Han Solo's book. He didn't need a pussy ass force to be badass.

[xwingclass]

magic.

[EchoBoomer1987]

I remember after seeing the Re-release in theaters (as a kid) my dad pulled a prank on me. He was lifting his arm and shuting the garage door using the force. I tried it and to my astonishment the door opened but only halfway and went back down. So this went on for a good five minutes of me concentrating tying to shut the door, Turns out he had the garage opener in his pocket.

[oldplural]

@EchoBoomer1987

Hilarious!! So did you learn anything?

[BeatxByxBeat]

@EchoBoomer1987 my dad did this with me too!!! he also told me to use the force to turn red lights green...

[VysetheLegend88]

@EchoBoomer1987 Your father is incredible, haha.

[BarbieSLS]

@EchoBoomer1987 AWWW lol

[JasonvonEvil83]

Yoda is zen.

[j077yr0g3r]

No! Try not! Do or Do not. There is no try. I simply LOVE this....

[purehotup]

[OuttaNowhere81]

[1bongman]

[hotd14]

Probably my favorite Yoda Quote and one of my favorite Star Wars lines.

[adsfafdsf]

yoda is a boss. 

[jeffreyyiu19]

That Is Why You Fail. FAIL!!!! rofl Vote Yoda For President. Down With Obama !

[zero46t]

[TheKoreanX]

Very profound statement... Star Wars is pure perfection in all aspects.

[FUwogs]

profound

[bill01234]

always with you, what cannot be done

[DavidCookRocks25]

i just heard this quote today by a teacher and i did not hear it ever hear it

[johnsmdm]

I'm trying to figure out the atmospheric dynamics where fog or water vapor would float at ground level like it does on a planet like Dagobah....sirs...

[Fetcha200]

The fact that the new prequels had way better CGI's but were an abomination to the old prequels, tells us that it wasn't the 'special effects' that made star wars so great.

[ElTuco84]

Yoda is better than Dr. Phil and Oprah together.

[ElTuco84]

Yoda is than Dr. Phil and Oprah together.

[jaytech3000]

words to live by

[jeyckson]

i don't like star wars i think it's only a miss of time! but the empire strikes back was amazing so good i saw fifteen times. go Master yoda! and live venezuela forever fuck you everybody.

[durazno1616]

lol yoda talks shyt though...he failed...he talks mad shyt...yet he fails when he trys to beat the emperor and he realizes he isnt strong enough...they need annakin to do the dirty work cuz he was the strongest jedi along with windu...then yoda still talks like hes king shyt to luke about this trying bullshit....yoda is def overrated...windu, annakin skywalker/darth vader and han solo r the shyt.

[dudewheresmygrl]

@durazno1616 the prequels never happened in my opinion.

[cuteasme2242]

y o da

[sebs42]

@orkneymist

because he is green.

[mutationx06]

we must unlearn!! the barriers are only in our mind!!! we can make this world a better place starting inside of us!!

try not! do! or do not!!

[wamphyriscurse]

"Trying" is merely "doing" with the intention of failing

[gavhenrad]

@wamphyriscurse hrmmmm, what about trying to do? Like trying to do a ploppypoopy

[leetlolerol]

@wamphyriscurse I agree

[silimas]

Not the intention, but you do fill your job with the possibility of failure. If you do something, then you are going to complete it.

Trying = Attempt to do something. It may or may not succeed.

Therefore, there is no try, unless you wish to increase your chance at failure.

[kkwillsaveus]

@wamphyriscurse To right there, got a friend who's exams coming up and he keeps going 'I'll try, but that might not result in success,' basically he knows he will fail to get what he needs.
