“Carpe Noctem” quotes from Angel

(looking at Cordelia's fashion magazine) Why do girls want to look like that? I spent years in a cave starving, what's their excuse?

Cordelia

(on Fred) She's got the big puppy love. I mean, who wouldn't? You're handsome and brave and heroic, emotionally stunted, erratic, prone to turning evil, and let's face it, a eunuch.

Angel

Hey! How can you...I'm not a eunuch.

Cordelia

Angel, it's just a figure of speech.

Angel

Find another one.

Cordelia

I just mean that sex is a no-no for you because of the whole "if you know perfect bliss you'll turn evil curse." Really no cure for that, is there?

Wesley

(about Angel making out with someone on his desk) This isn't like him.

Cordelia

What? This is totally like him. Doing the mystery dance with some cheap blonde?

Brunette. She was a cheap brunette.

Cordelia

You're right. This isn't like him.

Angel

Hi.

Hey. How's your head? S-Sorry about all that...

Angel

No, I gather I had it coming.

Uh, yes.

Angel

Fred, I've been meaning to talk to you about something.

Mm-hmm. Okay. Is this about how you're not like other men... what, with that curse and all? And, how you're really fond of me, but that's as far as it goes?

Angel

Um... Yeah.

Cordelia explained it to me. She said you'd probably just screw it up.

Angel

Oh, she did, did she? Well, she's probably right. What?

It's like something out of Fitzgerald. [sighs] The man who can have everything but love. Well, maybe in some ways, you're better off, because love is... Well, in a way, it's everything. But it's also heartache and dissappointment. And those are good things to avoid.

Cordelia

Angel, Willow's on the phone. She's alive. Buffy's alive.

Buffy?
