Rebels - S2E11 - "Legacy"

5:17 - Kanan (to Ezra):  "Stay in the moment.  Be in this place, at this time."  Although the specific words don't match, this is basically the same advice that Qui-Gon gives in Obi-Wan at the beginning of The Phantom Menace:  "Keep your concentration here and now where it belongs" [3:16].

9:47 - Kanan (to Ezra and Zeb):  "We'll take the long way around."  Padmé says almost the same thing in The Phantom Menace, after Darth Maul arrives and blocks the way:  "We'll take the long way" [1:50:30].

10:07 - Commander Sato:  "We are employing escape plan delta, Captain Syndulla."  In The Empire Strikes Back, Luke announces the similarly named "Attack pattern delta" [26:44].

12:56 - Sabine (as The Ghost is closing on the tractor beam emitter):  "Almost got it, almost got it."  In A New Hope, Red Leader says something similar as he approaches the target on the Death Star:  "Almost there" [once at 1:52:17 and again at 1:52:29].

13:28 - Commander Sato (once the command ship is free from the tractor beam):  "Get us out of here, now!"  Han also says this in A New Hope:  "Chewie, get us outta here!" [55:26].

16:08 - Ezra (referring to the lothcat he's chasing): "Fast little fuzzball."  Han uses the same moniker in The Empire Strikes Back when he tells Chewbacca, "Laugh it up, fuzzball" [17:26].

17:16 - Ezra:  "Something familiar about this."  In The Empire Strikes Back, Luke makes a similar comment about Dagobah:  "There's something familiar about this place" [47:12].

17:33 - Ezra:  "X-10?  Hold your fire; we're friends."  The context is quite different, but Obi-Wan also says this to Anakin when he tries to shoot the buzz droids off Obi-Wan's starfighter in Revenge of the Sith:  "Hold your fire!  You're not helping here!" [6:03]
