I’m not seeing why you think Yoda wasn’t a Jedi in the OT.

Me neither.

"When gone am I, the last of the Jedi will you be."

[Taegin Roan]

He also said something along the lines of "Failed I have, into hiding I must go", meaning he thinks he is no longer worthy of the title of Grand Master of the Jedi Order. He also resisted Obi-Wan's suggestion to train Luke, not because he was "too old", though that is the excuse he used, but also because he did not feel like he could do it because he didn't think himself a Jedi. Also, he didn't say "the last of the Jedi will you be" until Ep. 6. The "Do or do not" was in Ep. 5. Sometime in between he decided that yes, he could still be a Jedi, even though he had given the title up Jedi.

[Darth Calon]

This one is for you Logos.

[Tzimho]

Blah blah blah. You ever tried sleeping in sun light? Darkness has its upsides.

If I'm tired enough :p no problem. But driving around town in pure darkness will lead to allot of death.

He went into hiding because he failed to cut the head off the snake. He already knew what happened to the other Jedi, and with Sidious still alive, the clones would continue to pursue him. He didn't want to train Luke because, like his father, He had aged and formed deep attachments to people. This played out when Vader tortured Han, specifically to draw Luke out. The Emperor further utilized Luke's longing for a father figure in ROTJ. "His compassion for you shall be his undoing. He will come to you, and then you will bring him before me." Yoda also, in the third person under guise, referred to himself as a Jedi Master. "Jedi Master? Yoda. You seek Yoda?...Take you to him I will. Berheheheh, but first, we must must eat. Come." Yoda was testing Luke. I'm fairly certain that Luke was not yet attuned to sensing the presence of another Force wielder. Yoda strung Luke along to see if he could calm down a sense what was really happening, and that Yoda was right in front of him.

You are also reading lines spoken over the course of only 20 some odd years as differences of mind set of a being that is 900yo. It is highly unlikely that Yoda would lose faith in the core beliefs he has carried for centuries simply because his enemy gained the upper hand. That would have been like the British giving up on reclaiming the Colonies after we took our first major victory. Yoda simply understood that, at this point in time, it was futile to fight. Although, I do think he gave up rather easy in the Senate, considering what was at stake.

Even the shade is a form of darkness. Light and dark have to coexist in order to maintain life.

[Taegin Roan]

There is no darkness. Only the absence of Light. I am here to make sure there is never an absence.

[Darth Logos]

There is no darkness. Only the absence of Light. I am here to make sure there is never an absence.

Yeah, that absence is called "darkness". Kinda like how the absence of winning is called LOSING.

[Tzimho]

Darkness and light need to go exist in order for the universe to survive

[Darth Calon]

There is no darkness. Only the absence of Light. 

I’ve heard this exact thing before from someone I respect. That was being applied to real life though, not SW.

Einstein said it to one of his professors in the process of proving a point. I'm sure many others have said it as well, and it has also been worded differently, but but they all mean the same thing. It is super applicable to everything, and it can totally be applied to RL as well as SW.

Evidently it’s a much more well known statement than I thought.

[Taegin Roan]

Evidently it’s a much more well known statement than I thought.

It is also a scientific fact, so yeah. Pretty widely known. Doesn't change the truth of it though.

[Tzimho]

but see, there must always be balance!

[Darth Logos]

Then how do you account for black-body objects? ô¿ô

Now moving away from photonic physics, in thermodynamic terms there actually is no such thing as "hot" or "cold"; there is only the gain or loss of heat. "Hot" and "cold" are merely relative to a baseline temperature measurement.
