TOP 15 Inspiring Master Yoda Quotes

Yoda is a character from the Star Wars universe, created by George Lucas. He is a legendary Jedi Master and stronger than most of all the ones with the Force. Though, small in size, but wise and powerful, he have trained Jedi for over 800 years (est. trained around 20,000 Jedi) and witnessed the rise and fall of the Galactic Republic, as well as the rise of the Galactic Empire. Always talking funny and in riddles, he played integral roles in the Clone Wars, the instruction of Luke Skywalker, and unlocking the path to immortality.

An ancient Jedi revered for his advanced age and wisdom, Yoda served as Grand Master of the Jedi Order during the latter days of the Republic and held a seat on the Jedi High Council along with other legendary masters such as Mace Windu and Ki-Adi-Mundi.

George Lucas opted to have many details of the character’s life history remain unknown. Yoda’s race and home world have not been named in any official media, and he is merely said to be of a “species unknown” by the Star Wars Databank.

The films and expanded universe reveal that he had a hand in training almost every Jedi Master in the galaxy, including:

• Count Dooku (identified in Attack of the Clones as Yoda’s old Padawan Learner);
• Mace Windu;
• Obi-Wan Kenobi (partially, before Qui-Gon Jinn takes over as Obi-Wan’s master);
• Ki-Adi-Mundi;
• Kit Fisto;
• Luke Skywalker.
