About This Quote

I think—” Anakin kicked his heel against the polished marble floor. “I think I hate it when I can’t stop my men from getting hurt. From dying. I think I hate it when I can’t fix my men’s problems.

When I can stop my men from getting hurt, it makes me feel good. When I can stop my men from getting hurt, it makes me feel so powerful. But if I can’t even fix their problems, then what good am I? I’m just a kid who has a fancy title and gets to sit in a fancy chair and tell people what they should do and not do.

What good is that? All that means is that somewhere, somehow, someone else has to fix their problems and keep their men safe.
