“The Jedi, they don’t attack, they only defend. Yoda didn’t attack until the [Attack of the Clones]. […] There’s a conundrum ultimately. It’s been there forever. Which is, are you just going to sit there and let them kill you? Or your loved ones? Or destroy the world that you know? Or are you going to try to fix it? At some point, you do have to stand up for what you believe in. Obviously, I can make my religion be whatever I want it to be. It doesn’t have to be consistent. If a cobra’s going to strike you, I think you have every right to put a stick up there and hit him over the head. Because it’s either him or you. Of course, this is the mythology of the cowboy. They always put him in these crises where you have to choose between your own personal values and the practicality of what you need to do. You’ve got to pick up the sheriff’s badge even though you had all these problems in the past. You’re going to have to go out and kill people again. Even though you said you’d never do it.” - James Cameron’s Story of Science Fiction, 2018
