“Compassion, which I define as unconditional love, is essential to a Jedi’s life so you may say we are encouraged to love.” Star Wars is a story that reflects the fundamental struggle between good and evil.

Both Anakin and Luke were both Jedi, but that's where the similarities seem to end. Anakin ended up a villain, a commander of the Imperial Army because he gave in to hate.

He risks his life time after time for them and on the Death Star, a selfless deed. Han Solo and Chewbacca helped him leave Tatooine, and he paid them back a hundred times over by saving their lives. A compassionate person, Luke cared about his friends, and companions so much that he would risk his life for theirs. Anakin and Luke both cared deeply about those close to them and do sometimes irrational things to avenge or save them. Lastly, they were both trained by the same people. Anakin was trained by Obi-Wan Kenobi, even though he was too old to train because he already had attachments to the physical. According to an old prophecy, Anakin would defeat the siths and bring balance to the force, but sadly that was not what happened. Eventually, Anakin turned to the dark side of the force and killed Obi-Wan to prove his strength. Anakin always tries to prove to Obi-Wan that he is neither rash nor foolish, but only proved his point in the end. Luke was also trained by Obi-wan. He taught him everything he knew and prepared him so he would not turn to the dark side of the force like his father and sense the force with feelings. By Obi-Wans guidance, Luke fulfilled the prophecy instead of Anakin. Both Anakin and Luke became powerful Jedi because they were trained by

There is a theory that there are only seven different story-lines in the world, but they are all re-used in different ways to make up all of the books and movies and plays we have today. If that theory were true, Luke's life fell into the category of the quiet kid with no glaringly obvious hopes, dreams or aspirations, if that category existed.

Vladimir Lenin believed that the bourgeoisie betrayed domestic socioeconomic interests, leading most of the working class in early twentieth century Russia to seek a governance that incorporated the peasantry and rid the Soviet Union of a selfish government. He and other Bolsheviks empowered an alliance between the working-class and semi-proletarian section of the peasantry to revolutionize against capitalism. This eventually led to boycotts against revolutionary-democratic movements, the deconstruction of the Russian Social-Democratic Labour Party, and the formation of the Russian Communist Party. He claimed Bolshevik success was due to “the most rigorous and truly iron discipline in our party… [and] unreserved support from the entire mass
