Episode 1 Yoda-isms

Yoda statements made in Episode 1, during meetings of the 12 Jedi Councilmen:

  1.  "The very Republic is threatened, if involved the Sith are."
  2.  "Hard to see, the dark side is. Discover who this assasin is, we must."
  3.  "With this Naboo Queen you must stay, Qui-Gon. Protect her."
  4.  "Master Qui-Gon, more to say have you?"
  5.  "A Vengeance, you say?"
  6.  "But you do!...Revealed, your opinion is!"
  7.  "Trained as a Jedi, you request for him?"
  8.  "Tested, he will be."
  9.  "Good, good, young one. How feel you?"
10.  "Afraid, are you?"
11.   "See through you, we can."
12.  "Afraid to lose her, I think."
13.  "Everything....Fear is the path to the dark side, Fear leads to anger,
        Anger leads to hate. Hate...leads to suffering."
14.  "A Jedi must have the deepest commitment, the most serious mind.
         Much fear in you. I sense, young one."
15.  "Then continue, we will."
16.   "Finished, we are, of the examination of the boy".
17.  "Correct you were, Qui-Gon."
18.  "Clouded, this boy's future is. Masked by his youth."
19.  "An apprentice, you have, Qui-Gon." Impossible, to take on a second."
20.  "Ready so early, are you?  What know you of ready?"
21.  "Our own counsel will we keep on who is ready; more to learn, he has."
22.  "Drawn out of hiding, her attackers will be."
23.  "Decided later, young Skywalker's fate will be."
24. "But train him not; take him with you, but train him not!"
25.    "May the Force be with you."
26.  "Always two there are. No more, no less. A master and an apprentice."
27.  "Confer on you the level of Jedi Knight, the council does. Decided about
          the boy, the Council is, ObiWan."
28.  "So impatient, you are. So sure of what has been decided?".
29.  "A great warrior, was Qui-Gon Jinn. But so much more he could have been,
         if not so fast he had run. More slowly you must proceed, Obi-Wan."
30.  "Be not so quick to judge. Not everything is understanding. Not all at once,
         is it revealed.  Years, it takes, to be a Jedi Knight. Years more, to become
         one with the force."
31.   "Decided, the Council is. Trained, the boy shall be."
32.   "Pleased, you are?  So certain this is right?"
33.   "Clouded, this boy's future remains, Obi-Wan.  A mistake to train him, it is."
34.   "Yes, decided.  Disagree with that decision, I must."
35.   "Your promise then, remember well, young Jedi. Sufficient it is, if you do."
36.   " But agree with your taking this boy as your Padawan learner, I do not."
37.   "The chosen one, the boy may be. Nevertheless, grave danger I fear in
          his training."
38.  "Qui-Gon's defiance I sense in you. Need that, you do not! Agree, the
          council does. Your apprentice, the young Skywalker will be."
39.  "Not so sure of this one as of Qui-Gon, do I feel.  Troubled, he is. Wrapped
         in shadows and difficult choices."
40.  "Ready this time, he was. Ready to train the boy, he may not be."  

Note: You have to see and read "Episode I" to make sense of the above sagacious remarks.
