Damon Salvatore quotes from The Vampire Diaries

Damon

Of all the idiot plans, Stefan... I'll find a way to get you out.

Stefan

Ah, it's alright, I'll...I'll handle myself. Bonnie has the moonstone. Work with her; try to figure out how to de-spell it.

Damon

You martyr yourself into a tomb and I get partnered with a semi-competent witch. Wonderful!

Stefan

Keep Elena away from here.

Damon

(scoffs) Yeah, 'cause that'll be easy.

Stefan

Promise me, no matter what happens, you'll protect her.

Damon

Promise.

Stefan

You trapped her in the house?

Damon

It's for the best, trust me. Elena's on a martyr tear that rivals your greatest hits.

Damon

You should really lock your door. (Elena sulks) Oh come on, pouty. At least give me two points for ingenuity.

Elena

Do you think this is funny?

Damon

Yes, Elena. I find hilarity in the lengths that I have to go to to repeatedly save your life.

Elena

What does Stefan say about this?

Damon

We had a good laugh.

Elena

Hold on a second - tonight's the full moon?

Damon

Yep. But you're too absorbed with all your suicidal tendencies to notice.

Alaric

Where is Mason, anyway?

Damon

Decomposing in his truck.

Damon

You think I'm afraid of you?

Jules

No, I don't. That's your vampire arrogance - you should be. I sniffed you out the moment you entered this bar, along with your pathetic wolfsbane. See, I've been at this a long time, and any other night of the month, the situation would be reversed. But tonight? Is not the night to pick a fight with me. You've been marked.

Damon

Where is she?

Alaric

Just let it go, Damon. Don't be stupid.

Damon

What, I'm supposed to let her just get away? I've been "marked"... What the hell kind of wolf...pronoun...crap is that, anyway?

Alaric

Damon, look up. Just look up! (points to the full moon) If this werewolf stuff is true, one bite, and you're dead. One bite, alright? Don't risk it.

Rose

So, I'm gonna help you.

Damon

Help me do what?

Rose

Save Elena. Protect Elena. All things Elena.

Damon

You sure you can do that?

Rose

I don't love men that love other women. I think more of myself than that.

Rose

It doesn't mean I can't be a special friend.

Damon

I think I like you.

Stefan

There's a lot of people here...

Damon

Oh. Damn. There goes my plan to rip her spleen through her back.

Jules

Bite me. (Damon grabs her) I'm not afraid of you...

Damon

Then you are very, very stupid.

Jules

How's your friend? Rose - is that her name? Have the chills started? The unbearable pain?

Damon

If there's a cure, tell me. Or start watching your back.

Jules

Did I mention the dementia? It'll eat away at her brain; soon she'll be rabid...

Rose

I miss being human.

Damon

Humanity's not all it's cracked up to be.

Elena

There you go, pretending to turn it off; pretending not to feel. Damon, you're so close, don't give up!

Damon

I feel, Elena! And it sucks.
