Leia chuckled. "Well that depends on how you define 'strength'," she said. "If you're talking about the more physical aspects of it, like telekinesis and wielding a saber, then Luke is stronger. But if you're talking about the more mental and emotional aspects of it, like intuition and empathy, I am. We really balance each other's strengths and weaknesses quite well, which I can't help but feel was intentional."
"I imagine that's not the most satisfying answer in this sort of situation, though. So I will say that while we lived in our own galaxy, his Force abilities were certainly more developed than mine. That was largely by my own choice, as I felt I could serve the galaxy and its people better as a Senator than a Jedi, but the fact remains that I never took the time to develop my Force abilities to the same level that he did."
"Since arriving in the multiverse though, I've had time to develop them in ways I simply didn't have the luxury of doing during my life back home. So if my Luke and I were to compare ourselves now, it would likely be a much tighter contest."
