Sit with a pretty girl for an hour, and it seems like a minute. That's relativity.

Did you guys send in for the Character list? (look at the stickey!)
56. "Han Solo, what a man." – C3PO
56. "Then I will beat you into unconsciousness and ask someone else." – Mace Windu
56. "When will you learn that everything I tell you is the truth?" – Vergere to Nom Anor
56. "This is Major Wes Janson, and if you're not aware of his exploits, I'm sure he'll be delighted to give you the whole story." – Wedge Antilles
50. "Oh, I understood you. You didn't understand me. When I smack someone into a bulkhead and toss him on the deck, that's me saying he should get his carcass off my ship. The other things, the head butt and the stomach punch, that was just because I don't like you." – Booster Terrik
50. "The great Darth Vader was a sick man in an iron mask!" – Emperor Palpatine
50. "When I betrayed you, I betrayed myself. When I killed your siblings, I killed pieces of myself. You may kill me, but I will live on in you. We are One." – Jacen Solo to the World Brain
50. "Query: Is there someone that you need killed, Master?" – HK-47
50. "Hello, Master. I'm running now - but I've had time to reflect on your teachings. You say the living sometimes have to suffer to serve a larger goal. I've seen how you live by that. Well I have a goal now too. Justice. For myself. For my friends. For the people sacrificed to the plans of the so-called infallible. And it will definitely involve some suffering. Because you see, I've had a vision of my own. One day one of you is going to confess and clear my name. And to make sure, I'm going to hunt down each and every one of you. The one that confesses, lives. I don't care which one of you does it. It doesn't matter where they send you. You have a death mark, same as me. Don't look for me, Lucien. Because I'll find you. And if I do end up collapsing the Jedi Order, just remember one thing. You started it.” – Zayne Carrick
50. "That's not what the Empire would have done, Commander. What the Empire would have done was build a super-colossal Yuuzhan Vong-killing battle machine. They would have called it the Nova Colossus or the Galaxy Destructor or the Nostril of Palpatine or something equally grandiose. They would have spent billions of credits, employed thousands of contractors and subcontractors, and equipped it with the latest in death-dealing technology. And you know what would have happened? It wouldn't have worked. They'd forget to bolt down a metal plate over an access hatch leading to the main reactors, or some other mistake, and a hotshot enemy pilot would drop a bomb down there and blow the whole thing up. Now that's what the Empire would have done." – Han Solo

47. "I could heal that hurt. Pour the Force into the place where the red lines intersect. Or - and here's a new idea - maybe I could explode that point. Kill you. Interesting idea. Should we try?" – Cade Skywalker
47. Fable Astin: "So what's it like to be a pawn for the emperor?"
Adalric Cessius Brandl: "I brought pleasure to my master through the tears of his subjects. The Emperor's ideas are quite noble. Its his methods which inevitably offend those of lesser wisdom."
Fable Astin: "Sounds like you're still loyal to him. Why not, he only tried to kill you!"
Adalric Cessius Brandl: "In time, you will learn that an old friend is very much like a good mirror. The longer you stare into it, the harder it is to find the flaws."
47. "Yeep!" – Slyssk

It was either 6 quotes or 14, so I went with 6 since it was all the numbers in the 40's. Its tough because there's sooooo many ties. But to make up for it, here is all the 30's.
39. Nom Anor: "May I congratulate the warmaster on his mating?"
Tsavong Lah: "You may."
Nom Anor: "I hope that Domain Lah will soon have another addition to its ranks."
Tsavong Lah: "That is none of your business."
Shimrra: "To business. Report, warmaster."
39. "What I see, Admiral Sarn, is just another one of your endless tests! I will not be impressed until I have, under my command, the full power to crush the Rebel Alliance!" – Darth Vader
39. "The New Republic? Are you blind? There is no New Republic! It died before the Yuuzhan Vong came!" – Leia Organa Solo
39. "Let the enemies do the work." – Various Jedi during Fury
39. “We'll put that in your biography. General Antilles was so good he couldn't fail when he tried to." – Tycho Celchu
34. Kyle Katarn: “I'll be ready at the docking ring.”
Jagged Fel: "Watch out for lightsabers."
Kyle Katarn: “Watch out for durasteel rails.”
This quote from Fury is definitely one of my favorites and solidifies why I <3 Allston.
34. "Sithspawn, I was flirting with a nine-year-old!" – Wes Janson
34. "Zuckuss, how any being can live behind a respirator is beyond me... Mastication is life's greatest pursuit! Chewing is living!" – Embra the Hutt
34. “Am I the only one here who simply wants to punch Master Skywalker in the nose?” – Kyp Durron
34. "The young go through wars and think that the experience is enough to teach them to fear such conflicts. And then, years later, their children go to war, and suddenly the parents learn what fear really means." – Gilad Pellaeon
31. "The Yuuzhan warriors are brave; they are aggressive, they obey orders without hesitation, fight to the death, retreat reluctantly or never, and never surrender. Considering their other advantages, it is lucky for us that they possess these weaknesses." – Admiral Ackbar
31. "Sometimes I miss my sanity." – Wedge Antilles
31. "Love doesn't lead to the dark side. Passion can lead to rage and fear, and can be controlled, but passion is not the same thing as love. Controlling your passions while being in love, that's what they should teach you to beware, but love itself will save, not condemn you." – Jolee Bindo

26. Darth Vader: "I don't like being reminded of the past."
Xora: "But you'll never escape it."
26. "When I look at you through the Force, I can see where you break." - Mace Windu
26. "If I contradict myself, they prove I'm a spy because I can't keep my story straight; whereas if I don't contradict myself, they prove I'm a spy because I'm too well briefed." – Vergere
26. "There's no mechanical replacement for a future, Face. And every time I take a hit, and they have to cut away another part of me and replace it with machinery because I'm allergic to bacta, every time that happens I seem to be a little further away from the young doctor who had a future. He can't come back, Face. Not all of him is here anymore." – Ton Phanan
26. "Every generation has its challenges to face, its own battles to win. Why should yours be any different? Running away from your problems won't solve anything." – Luke Skywalker to Cade Skywalker
23. Darovit: "Don't you see? You should see yourself now! You hated it on Somov Rit - trodding in mud, eating roots and raw fish. And these Jedi were no better!"
Hardin: "Exactly! No better, no purer nor braver! Yet their cause made them noble! Made me noble! Don't you see?"
Darovit: "No, these Jedi are not the right ones! Jedi don't die! Jedi live forever!"
23. "Don't call them 'scarheads'. It's not nice." – Leia Organa Solo
23. "I'm a killer, too." – Zannah
22. Nen Yim: "My joy is in understanding. You're right - if I could take the universe apart and put it back together, I would."
Tahiri: "And thus rob yourself of half the wonder."
Nen Yim: "Wonder is you making up stories about giants and wedding gifts. Wonder is my people attributing the creation of the universe to an act of dismemberment. It is avoiding true mystery through fantasy. And if the universe refuses to conform to your fantasy, does it cease to be wonderful? That is a conceit of the highest order."
21. "That's treason. I like it." – Booster Terrik
WHOOP! We're at the top 20 after this! I love Booster's quote here, classic Booster.
