18. REMEMBER, YOU MUST. YOU ARE JEDI.
~ Yoda
“The Force, [a.ka. “Tech”] can have a powerful effect on the
weak-minded [a.k.a students], a phenomenon Jedi [a.k.a. the
Teacher] sometimes take advantage of in pursuing their missions
[a.k.a. To educate]. An experienced Jedi [Teacher] can use the Force
[Tech] to implant a suggestion in the minds of those they
encounter, encouraging them to comply with the Jedi’s [Teacher’s]
wishes.”
~ Obi Wan Kenobi
