MAZ: The only fight: against the dark side. Through the ages, I've seen evil take many forms. The Sith. The Empire. Today, it is the First Order. Their shadow is spreading across the galaxy. We must face them. Fight them. All of us.
Leave it to the wizened old lady running the bar to cut to the chase and let us know exactly what this fight is about.
It makes an interesting counterpoint to the emphasis elsewhere in the saga that the Force is all about balance. The First Order intends to throw that balance off and let the dark side rule supreme…but balance also means that the light side needs to accept the existence of darkness in order to keep the Force in the creamy middle where it's supposed to be.

MAZ: That lightsaber was Luke's. And his father's before him. And now, it calls to you!
It's important to note here, again, that Luke's father in this case wasn't strictly Darth Vader (who had a red lightsaber like all Sith Lords do). It was Anakin's, and while it may be touched by some evil deeds (like the slaughter of a school full of children), it's not a weapon of the dark side. The Force has a pretty good idea what it intends to do with this kid.

REY: You...you're afraid...that you will never be as strong as...Darth Vader!
Fear leads to the dark side…even fearing that your grandpa could kick your butt in the Wearing a Black Mask and Killing People department. Rey really cuts through him to the core: that his evil isn't motivated by anger or a need to be strong, but fear…which is where it always comes from.
