Sith have no fear. And I sense much fear in you - Dooku to Ventress.

I was under the impression that a Sith was encouraged to draw upon his own fears.

Thoughts?

Welcome to Star Wars. Contradictions galore.

"Only a Sith deals in absolutes."

"Do or do not. There is no try."

Yes, I suppose I should know better.

Never the less, Star Wars fans thrive on these contradictions.

It makes us strong, and allows us to burn time.

The brain damage is worth it.

Well Dooku wasn't exactly the pinnacle of Sithly goodness now was he? Like he knew what he was talking about.

Well, I got hell here when I said that I considered Dooku more of a pseudo Sith.

I was told of his Greatness.

Anyhow, he ought to know the basics at any rate.

What is this sh*t? I doubt that one achieves the title of 'Dark Lord of the Sith' without having an extensive knowledge of Sith teachings. Dooku not only wields that title, but wields it alongside the greatest Sith of all time. Of course he knows what he is talking about.

And he certainly isn't a psuedo Sith. He plunged the Galaxy into an inter-galactic war, killing trillions, all for personal gain. If that doesn't represent his greed and dedication to the Sith Order then I don't know what does.

Yes, yes.

I am not bothered about Dooku's Greatness or lack of it - I just thought that what he said to Ventress was odd.

Actually, I was under the impression that Dooku genuinely believed that that the galaxy would be better with him (and humanity) in charge.

I recall his musings from Stover's ROTS novel, and this would seem to be the case.

I don't want to get side tracked - I am not one to debate for the sake of debate, but he was different from most Sith.

His pride in his integrity was his downfall.

It seems that Sidious' biggest mistake was turning Jedi.

But then, he did not have much of a choice after what happened to Maul.

I was under the impression Sidious simply used Maul to kill Qui-Gon? I thought that was the main reason for him being his apprentice: to kill the one and only person who could actually stop Anakin from turning to the dark side. He would have eventually made Anakin (or Dooku) his apprentice, even if Maul was still alive.

LOL.

So, what would have happened to Maul? Would he have done his own thing or what?

Well... I don't think we can reeeally know that, but I agree with him on the part that Sidious would simply replace him, eventually.

And I sincerely have no idea as to what would happen to him. Maybe Sidious decides to kill him.

Whatta f*cker!

After all the time and effort spent by Maul, Sidz would just replace or kill him? That is mean. Seriously.

Well, he IS pure evil, after all, so.

That does not excuse being inconsiderate.

LOL, well, yeah, he is one big son of a b*tch.

Well, okay. I do not think we should stoop to his level. He is an unthoughtful person, I will leave it at that.
