"Do or do not. There is no try." Words to live by and the personal motto of legendary Master Jedi Yoda. His grand knowledge of the force influenced all the great Jedi's - Mace Windu, Qui-Gon Jinn, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker and Luke Skywalker.

But he wasn't just all talk ... he was also a master with the lightsaber as we saw in his epic fight with Dark Lord Count Dooku.
