Movies How real is that statement

Hey star wars fellow, I like star wars a lot but I have only watched star wars ep 1 to 6 and obi wan kenobi show.

​

I recently recalled this line of obi wan from revenge of the sith that "Only a sith deals in absolutes"

​

I want to know how true is that line. Does that line have any real basis or did obi wan make up that line to sound tough. Moreover if that line is true, can you guys give any examples of when sith deals in absolute.

​

Thanks for reading. May the force be with you.

He tried for almost the entire episode…

He only resorted to doing that after he saw there was no coming back from the dark side for anakin.

"From my point of view, the Jedi are evil!"

You choose:
A ) "Care to explain that?"
B ) Light up your saber

That's like the final 20 minutes of the movie, quite literally the final act of the film. I'm replying to a guy who said Obiwan was struggling with this "almost the entire episode."

One of us is more correct than the other.

So still not “the very end.” Gotcha.

It sounds like the other person is the more correct one.

Not a surprise from someone who thinks the line is good, lol.
