Yoda is the kind of guy that makes one-liners and expects the other person derive a meaningful interpretation from it.
Yoda said:
On many long journeys have I gone. And waited, too, for others to return from journeys of their own. Some return; some are broken; some come back so different only their names remain.
I think part of what we're seeing with Yoda's open-mindedness and patience is 900 years of living, which would naturally cause one to see in longer time periods and not make quick decisions. Fe also encourages patience and listening skills, as jumping to conclusions tends to create unnecessary interpersonal tension.
However, it's very clear that Yoda is a very strict adherent to the Jedi way of life, if not
the archetypal adherent, and in that sense he remains very much a J. His entire life revolves around the goal of promoting the Jedi order and bringing peace to the galaxy - he has a
vision of what things should be and is pursuing that vision.
Going off the assumption that Yoda is the archetypal embodiment of the Jedi and the Light side of the Force, here is the Jedi Code:
There is no emotion, there is peace.
There is no ignorance, there is knowledge.
There is no passion, there is serenity.
There is no chaos, there is harmony.
There is no death, there is the Force.
I see that as very, very Ni-Fe-Ti-Se. I can understand considering INTJ, since Yoda is
so strong in Ni, but Te is so much about moving things in the external world and creating the conditions you want via logistics. Ti is much more about the underlying structure of things - there is no ignorance, there is knowledge. If everyone were knowledgeable, we would have peace and justice. That's more Ti logic, not Te, to say that if we have all the right conditions, this will work correctly. So no, to INTJ - and as for INTP, where is the Ne? I hardly see Ne in Yoda, short of his quirkiness, not even Ne informing Ti. And the "just being" quality of the Force even sounds a bit like aspirational Se.
If no mistake have you made, yet losing you are ... a different game you should play.
His thinking clearly runs along Ni paths: like [MENTION=13260]Rasofy[/MENTION] pointed out, he speaks in short bursts of wisdom and expects much to be extrapolated from those statements. This quote itself is essentially Ni-Ti at its purest - if you've correctly followed the internal logical protocol (Ti), but you're not achieving your goal (J), change the way you're looking at things (Ni). Clearly Yoda is a logical guy, but that can be true for anyone. People at work tell me I'm logical and organized, and I'm an ENFP. All that means is how well you're putting your logic into use, not whether you
prefer logic over ethic, which I believe that both Yoda and I do not. His vision (Ni) is peace (Fe) and justice (Ti), and the primary way of bringing that about is to engender harmony between beings. Sounds like auxiliary Fe to me.
Death is a natural part of life. Rejoice for those who transform into the Force. Mourn them do not. Miss them do not. Attachment leads to jealousy.
Rather Buddhist in nature, but also Ni-Fe. Change your point of view (Ni) such that you understand death to be something natural and good, so that you do not breed the traits that lead to negative tension between beings (Fe).
Lost a planet, Master Obi-Wan has. How embarrassing. How embarrassing.

No! Try not. Do, or do not. There is no try.

What makes you think Yoda is deeply intuitive? He just wields the force like few others, much like Hendrix plays the guitar.
STP, then?
Can beings even be typed, if we are just manifestations of one single Force?
