Here are a few quotes and ideas from the books on how a Jedi should or shouldn't act. There are also the philosphical veiws of the Jedi.
* A Jedi must be aware of her/his environment, but must not let it affect her/him in ways she/he does not desire.
* All potential Jedi can learn from another.
* The training of a true Jedi doesn't come from listening to lectures.
* There is no try.
* Patience can be as strong an ally as any weapon.
* Even during times of peace, a Jedi Knight should never allow himself/herself to relax and grow weak.
* There is no emotion; there is peace. There is no ignorance; there is knowledge. There is no passion; there is serenity. There is no death; there is the Force.
* Every living thing strengthens the Force, and everything draws strength from it.
* A Jedi feels no heat or cold. A Jedi can extinguish pain.
* A true Jedi rarely uses a lightsaber to settle dispute. It is better to out think and outmaneuver your opponent.
* Beware the dark side.
* A Jedi could never be helpless since the Force comes from all living things.
* "In your fear lies caution, and in that caution lies wisdom and strength."
-Luke Skywalker
* A Jedi fights only as a last resort. If you are forced to draw your lightsaber, you have already ferfeited much of your advantage.
* A Jedi trusts the Force and at first seeks other ways to resolve problems: patience, logic, tolerance, attentive listening, negotiation, persuation, and calming techniques.
* There are many times when a Jedi must fight.
A Jedi should use all available skills and resources.
* Once you build it, a lightsaber will become your constant companion, your tool, and a ready means of defence.
* A Jedi must act when she or his is calm, at peace with the Force.
* A Jedi can wait as long as neccesary.
* Your eyes can deceive you; don't trust them.
* Don't center on your fears. Concentrate on the here and now.
