"Luke, I am your father"


Why does everyone keep quoting this. It's not the actual line. Vader never actually says this in any star wars movie.

quote:

Vader: If only you knew the power of the Dark Side. Obi-Wan never told you what happened to your father.
Luke: He told me enough! He told me you killed him!
Vader: No, I am your father.
Luke: [shocked] No. No! That's not true! That's impossible!
Vader: Search your feelings; you know it to be true!

For the same reason people quote Jimmy Cagney as saying "You dirty rat." If people just said "No. I am your father," others would be confused as to what they were talking about.

Putting "Luke" in there helps others to get the reference.
