Padme: You're not all-powerful, Ani.
Anakin: Well, I should be.

Queen Amidala: Although we do not always agree, Your Honor, our two great societies have always lived in peace. The Trade Federation has destroyed all that we have worked so hard to build. If we do not act quickly, all will be lost forever. I ask you to help us... no, I beg you to help us. We are your humble servants. Our fate is in your hands.
Boss Nass: Hmmmmm. Yousa no tinken yousa greater den da Gungans? Mesa like dis. Maybe wesa... bein' friends.

It is clear to me now that the Republic no longer functions.

Queen Amidala: How did you end up here with us?
Jar Jar Binks: I don't know. Mesa day startin pretty okee-day with a brisky morning munchy, then BOOM! Gettin very scared and grabbin that Jedi and POW! Mesa here! Mesa gettin' very very scared!

Queen Amidala: Our people are dying, Senator. We must do something quickly to stop the Federation.
Senator Palpatine: To be realistic, your Majesty. I think we are going to have to accept Federation control for the time being.
Queen Amidala: That is something I cannot do.

I was not elected to watch my people suffer and die while you discuss this invasion in a committee!

Queen Amidala

I will not condone a course of action that will lead us to war.

Queen Amidala

Queen Amidala: You're a slave?
Anakin: I'm a person and my name is Anakin.

Anakin: Are you an angel?
Queen Amidala: What?
Anakin: An angel. I've heard the deep space pilots talk about them. They live on the moons of Iego, I think. They're the most beautiful creatures in the universe.
Queen Amidala: You're a funny little boy. How do you know so much?
Anakin: I listen to all the traders and star pilots who come through here. I'm a pilot, you know, and someday I'm going to fly away from this place.
