can any one?

[eldest sith]

give me the entire dialogue that jolee has with revan about love....it was very good and memorable... i would like to use the quote in a blog of mine...thnx in advance

[Mindtwistah]

It's not "a" dialog, it's "the" dialog. It's a part of Jolees "all time" dialog. You will spend some 10 minutes to find it.

[deathdisco]

Revan:You mentioned something about your wife before?

 

Jolee:I don't want to talk about that.

 

Revan:I don't mean to pry, but...

 

Jolee:Yes you do. You may mean well enough, but my private affairs are just

that: private. Let me tell you something. Once you've lived as many years as

I have, you'll have yourself a long, long list of memories. If you're lucky, most

of them will be good. If you're not, some will be bad. If you're really unlucky,

some will be so bad you never want to be reminded of them again... ever.

You'll go far away, to a place that doesn't hold any memories at all. And

there you'll be happy just to forget and be forgotten.

 

Revan:I would never do that.

 

Jolee:You say that now, but I'm talking to you from across the breadth of

many years experience. That is a gap I simply can't cross for you. Let me

ask you this: have you ever been in love? Truly in love, I mean, and not

simple infatuation.

 

Revan:Well...

 

Jolee:Exactly. You're still at the beginning of your life. There will be women in

your life... perhaps many women... but if you're fortunate you'll find love

once. The Jedi, with their damnable sense of over-caution, would tell you

love is something to avoid. Thankfully, anyone who's even partially alive

knows that's not true.

 

Revan:Aren't you worried about the dark side at all?

 

Jolee:Love doesn't lead to the dark side. Passion can lead to rage and fear,

and can be controlled... but passion is not the same thing as love.

Controlling your passions while being in love... that's what they should teach

you to beware. But love, itself, will save you... not condemn you. Ahhhh, but

listen to me go on as if I had all the answers. What do I know of love

anymore? I'm just a lonely old man who's not even a Jedi.

 

Revan:No, I want to hear what you have to say.

 

Jolee:You do, do you? I wouldn't listen too closely... I'm no authority on

anything. I just think that the greatest things in life shouldn't be avoided

because they come with a few complications. Love causes pain, certainly.

Inevitably love is going to lead to as much sorrow and regret as it does joy. I

suppose there are perfect, eternal loves out there... but I haven't seen any.

How you deal with the bad part of love is what determines your character,

what determines the dark side's hold over you.

 

Revan:You don't think love can work?

 

Jolee:I suppose it could. It would take a strong person to make that kind of

commitment, I think. Someone with a great sense of self. I'll tell you one

thing: sometimes, no matter how hard you try, you and the one you love

simply aren't meant to be together. The trick is to know when that is, to

know when it's time to fight and when it's time to part ways. Hmph... there I

go waxing philosophical again. Somebody blast me already! Let's get going

before I start talking in riddles, dammit!
