Wookieepedia:Quote of the Day/21 February 2012

< Wookieepedia:Quote of the Day
"Beings believe what you tell them. They never check, they never ask, they never think. Tell them the state is menaced by quadrillions of battle droids, and they will not count. Tell them you can save them, and they will never ask—from what, from whom? Just say tyranny, oppression, vague bogeymen that require no analysis. Never specify. Then they look the other way when reality is right in front of them. It's a conjuring trick. The key is distraction, getting them to watch your other hand. Only single-minded beings don't join in the shared illusion, and keep watching you too closely. Single-minded beings are dangerous. And they either work for me, or they don't work at all."
―Chancellor Palpatine[src]

    • Not really. I wouldn't have nom'd it if it was. It's just a soliloquy on his deceptive technique that only happens to mention battle droids. :) Bella'Mia 03:56, January 3, 2012 (UTC)

  8. Love her or hate her, you can't deny that she's capable of some awesome quotes. A pity that TCW ran her off. Master Jon (Council Chambers) Tuesday, January 10, 2012, 02:48 UTC
