After all the lies they've told me, it's the least I deserve from them. They can't be keepers of the peace while continuing to turn a blind eye to the outer rim. Not after this.
If they don't listen or won't try, I quit. Then I become an annoying, uncooperative citizen they can't touch.
[...Fucking really] If this were about what we're owed, every clone in the army would be owed more than the Republic can fucking afford. Annoying them won't cut it. What I did wasn't enough.
If you think it'll all work out because that's what's fair, you're delusional.
What you did wasn't enough because you were going up against the Jedi Order and the rest of the troopers.
I think we both know nobody cares about fair. Obviously, given how things have escalated since Geonosis
From my point of view, we end things, which means full attention can be put elsewhere. If you think I'm a pain in the ass now, just wait until you're on my bad side.
Your point of view doesn't mean anything. This isn't a matter of opinion. But you've already convinced yourself that letting more of us die as slaves to finish your war is more important.
This is why I can't trust you. Nobody should. You're no better than the rest of the Jedi if you're fine with this shit continuing until it's more convenient for you.
Then what the hell am I supposed to do that isn't blowing up a command post or two? One person can't start something so big. It's like wading upstream.
Remember? Kinda caught between a rock and a hard place right now. I'm not fine with it, but the exit plan isn't easy.
Well at least I fucking tried. Do you need any pointers on that?
[The only thing he'd kind of had on his side was the Seps, and they obviously didn't get it. Sure, he'd taken their money, but they didn't get what he was about. And what good had they done for him? They'd bungled every opportunity he'd set up for them.]
You've got power. You could be using it for something useful. Something that'd actually make the galaxy better.

So, where precisely does "no longer ordering slaves to their deaths" fit in your schedule once you get off this rock?
