WIsdom from star wars

This spring's pandemic in the guise of COVID-19 has given me ample opportunity to re-watch my Star Wars. I am an almost obsessive fan of the story-line (all of them including novels comics, and even the comic strip from the late 70's early 80's)

Naturally, I’m re-watching a Star Wars: The Clone Wars  which opens with the John Williams’ Star Wars Theme and a short quote that serves as the episode’s motif.
I enjoyed the show most of it is not terrible; after Season 1 the episodes become pretty enjoyable and there’s some good humor and drama interspersed throughout. Not required viewing for Star Wars fans but certainly an easy way to burn a weekend or four. Since I’m devoid of other commitments presently I figured that if I’m watching the series again anyways, I decided to Chronicle them here.
