"Why, you stuck up, half-witted, scruffy-looking Nerf herder."

"Your friend is quite a mercenary. I wonder if he really cares about anything... or anybody."

"You came in that thing? You're braver than I thought."

"What Is It They've Sent Us? Hope."

"You have your moments. Not many of them, but you do have them."

"Help me Obi-wan Kenobi, you're my only hope."

"You came in that thing? You're braver than I thought."

"I'll be back."

"Will somebody get this big walking carpet out of my way?"

"You needn't worry about your reward. If money is all that you love, then that's what you'll receive! Your friend is quite a mercenary. I wonder if he really cares about anything...or anybody."

"Listen, I don't know who you are, or where you came from, but from now on, you do as I tell you. Okay?"

"The more you tighten your grip, Tarkin, the more star systems will slip through your fingers."
