Buffy the Vampire Slayer quotes

I'm talking. The pain will be unbearable, but you won't be able to move... A bullet usually travels faster than this, of course. But the dying? It seems like it takes forever. Something, isn't it? One tiny piece of metal destroys everything. It ripped her insides out... It took her light away. From me. From the world... And now the one person who should be here is gone - and a waste like you gets to live. A tiny piece of metal. Can you feel it now?

I said - can you feel it? [Willow unravels the stitches.]

Please, God... I did wrong, I see that now. I need... jail! I need... But you - you don't want this. You're not a bad person. Not like me-

Buffy

[calling out in the distance] Willow!

When you get caught - you'll lose them too. Your friends. You don't want that. I know you're in pain but-

[Willow magically flays Warren, just as Buffy and Xander reach her.] Bored now.

Xander

Oh my God.

Buffy

What did you do? Willow, what did you do?

[setting Warren's body aflame] One down. [then vanishing]

Warren shot Buffy. Warren shot Tara. Buffy's alive, Tara is dead. Willow found out, and, being the most powerful wicca in the western hemisphere she decided to get the payback, with interest.

Andrew

What about Warren?

She killed him. Ripped him apart and bloodied up the forest doing it. Now she's coming here and the two of you are next.

Andrew

Oh my god, Warren!

Oh my god, me!

Andrew

Think your little witch buddy's gonna stop with us? You saw her! She's a truck-driving magic mama! And we've got maybe seconds before Darth Rosenberg grinds everybody into Jawa burgers! And not one of you bunch has the midi-clorians to stop her!

Xander

[after a brief silence] You've never had any tiny bit of sex, have you?

The annoying virgin has a point.

Let me tell you something about Willow. She's a loser. Always has been. She got picked on through junior high, high school, right up until college. With her stupid mousy ways. And now? [laughs bitterly] Willow's a junkie. The only thing Willow was ever good for...the only thing I ever had going for me were those moments...just moments...where Tara would look at me and I was wonderful. And that will never happen again.

[to Buffy] Please! This is your pitch? You hate it here as much as I do! I'm just more honest about it. You're trying to sell me on the world? The one where you lie to your friends when you're not trying to kill them? Where you screw a vampire just to feel and insane asylums are the comfy alternative? This world? Buffy, it's me! I know you were happier when you were in the ground. The only time you were ever at peace in your whole life was when you were dead. Until Willow brought you back. You know, with magic?

Oh Buffy. You really need every square inch of your ass kicked.

The Slayer thing really isn't about the violence. It's about the power. And there's no one in the world who has the power to stop me now.

Giles

I'd like to test that theory.

You called me a rank, arrogant amateur. Well buckle up, Rupert... 'Cause I've turned pro.

Giles

Buffy, what's happened here?

Buffy

God. I don't even know where to start.

Giles

Well, Willow's clearly been abusing the magicks.

Buffy

She has. She was ... and I barely even noticed. Giles, everything's just been so... [sighs.] Xander left Anya at the altar, and Anya's a vengeance demon again... [Giles looks shocked.] Dawn's a total klepto ... money's been so tight that I've been slinging burgers at the Doublemeat Palace ... [looks down at the floor.] And I've been sleeping with Spike.

Giles

[trying to calm down.] Sorry.

Giles

Sometimes the most adult thing you can do is... ask for help when you need it.

Buffy

Now you tell me.

Is this the master plan? You're gonna stop me by telling me ya love me?

Xander

Well, I was going to walk you off a cliff and hand you an anvil, but, eh, it seemed kinda cartoony.

Xander

First day of kindergarten. You cried because you broke the yellow crayon, and you were too afraid to tell anyone. You've come pretty far, ending the world, not a terrific notion. But the thing is? Yeah. I love you. I loved crayon-breaky Willow and I love ... scary veiny Willow. So if I'm going out, it's here. If you wanna kill the world? Well, then start with me. I've earned that.

You think I won't?

Xander

It doesn't matter. I'll still love you.

Shut up!

Dawn

I'm sorry to disappoint...wait, is that happy crying?

Buffy

Yes, dummy. You think I wanted the world to end?

Dawn

I don't know. Didn't you?

Buffy

I don't want to protect you from the world. I want to show it to you.

You have completed the required challenges.

Spike

Bloody right I have. Now give me what I came for. Make me what I was so Buffy can get what she deserves.

Very well. [places his hand on Spike's chest] We will return...your soul.

Buffy

My first time out, I missed the heart too.

Dawn

No way.

Buffy

Just the once.

Xander

How do you make cereal?

Buffy

I put the box next to the milk. I saw it on the food channel.

Xander

So, how are you doing?

Buffy

My sister's about to go to the same school that tried to kill me for three years. I can't change districts, I can't afford private school, and I can't begin to prepare for what may come out of there. So peachy with a side of keen, that would be me.

Buffy

Stay away from hyena people, or any loser athletes, or if you see anyone who's invisible...

Dawn

I think it's pretty safe to say I'm not going to see anyone who's invisible.

Willow

The coven, they're the most amazing women I've ever met, but there's this look they get, like I'm going to turn them all into bangers and mash. And I'm not even sure what that is.

Giles

They're cautious. I'm sure you can understand that.

Willow

I don't have that much power, I don't think.

Giles

It's all connected. You're connected to a great power, whether you feel it or not.

Willow

I wish you'd just take it from me.

Giles

You know we can't. This isn't a hobby or an addiction. It's inside you now. You're responsible for it.

Willow

Will they always be afraid of me?

Giles

Maybe. Can you handle that?

Willow

I deserve a lot worse. I killed people, Giles.

Giles

I've not forgotten.

Willow

When you brought me here, I thought it was to kill me, or to lock me in a mystical dungeon for all eternity, or with the torture. Instead you go all Dumbledore on me. I'm learning about magic, Gaia, energy, and the roots system.

Giles

Do you want to be punished?

Willow

I want to be Willow.

Giles

You are. In the end, we all are who we are, no matter how much we may appear to have changed.
