Peace is a lie, there is only passion.
Through passion, I gain strength.
Through strength, I gain power.
Through power, I gain victory.
Through victory, my chains are broken.
The Force will free me.

I) Peace is a lie, there is only passion.
There is no peace in this world. Mankind have loathed, fought, killed each other for thousands of years now. They have always been fighting with each other.
II) Through passion, I gain strength.
Passion has always been the source of strength. Passion for one's country. Passion for a brotherhood. Passion for money, women, land, etc.
III) Through strength, I gain power.
Strength is essential for power. Power is needed for everything. Power is needed to destroy, to manage, to lead, even to protect. Without power, one is useless.
IV) Through power, I gain victory.
What is victory without power. Victory, is pleasure. Being the victor is what all of this is about, but winning a battle does not mean you have won the war.
V) Through victory, my chains are broken.
What is the sole purpose of everything? To be free from the chains that binds us. To reach the path of greatness.
"Only if we are free can we reach our full potential." - Darth Bane
VI) The Force will free me.
'Nuff said.
