About This Quote

When you live in a world where it seems like everything is falling apart, you might not realize that the end is near. This is the case for Darth Vader. He has watched his Empire crumble before him because of his failures and crimes. When he finally realizes that the end is near, he tries to set things right by killing his son so that he can save the galaxy.

But, when he fails to kill Luke Skywalker, he realizes that there is nothing more he can do. The play of life has come to an end for him and there will be no applause when the curtain falls.
