Qui-Gon seems to be pretty popular, even among people who don't like TPM. I always wondered what they are seeing in him.

He is supposed to be wise. But his most frequent line seems to be "I don't know".

A quote I really like from Data in ST:TNG, is that "I don't know" is the "beginning of wisdom". People are often afraid to admit when they don't know, so I'm with Qui Gon (and Data) on this one.

But the wise man is not the everyman character we identify with. He's wise for a reason.

You yourself and your buddy next to you might be wise to say "I don't know" but do you really want the guy with his finger on the nuclear control launch button not knowing what he's doing?
