Katherine Pierce quotes from The Vampire Diaries

Damon

Thought you might be dead.

Katherine

Unfortunately not.

Katherine

What are you doing here?

Andie

(walking into the apartment) We're here to rescue you.

Damon

No, sweetie. We are here to see if she deserves to be rescued.

Andie

Right.

Damon

I figured you still might be kicking. Alaric-Klaus was blending way too easily. Figured he probably had some coaching.

Katherine

A hundred and forty-five years and... no last goodbye?

Damon

You don't get a goodbye.

Katherine

Don't. Don't leave mad.

Damon

Us ending up on good terms is not exactly on my bucket list, Katherine.

Katherine

Klaus made me call Jenna to lure her out. There was nothing I could do. I didn't have a choice.

Damon

That's why I gave you the vervain. So you had a choice.

Katherine

It was her or me. I chose her.

Damon

I helped you. You owed me. Now when Klaus dies you're going to walk out of here without a scratch and Elena's aunt dies. Somehow you're the only one that wins. How'd that happen?

Katherine

I didn't let love get in the way.

Damon

Enjoy an eternity alone, Katherine.

Katherine

Is it wrong for me to want you both?

Elena

Damon.

Damon

(turns from Katherine) Elena?

Elena

Don't you see? She was toying with you. All you had to do was say no; walk away. You had a choice.

Katherine

Lurking outside your window, pining away.

Damon

What do you want?

Katherine

I'm homesick. What have I missed?

Damon

Well, Stefan's still Klaus' little prisoner, and Elena still thinks she can save him, and no one's thought about you since you left.

Katherine

And what about you? I'm sure, now that you've given up on your brother, you're plotting some way of moving in on his girlfriend.

Damon

I didn't give up on him. I just don't know where he is.

Katherine

What if I told you there is a way to kill Klaus? And not dagger dead. Dead dead.

Damon

I'd say you're either desperate or lying. Or drunk. Or a desperate, lying, drunk.

Katherine

You're going to get yourself killed. The Damon I remember wouldn't have been that stupid.

Damon

(pauses) I wouldn't have done it for you.

Damon

What? What do you mean "what"? I've been calling you for two days.

Katherine

Odd. That's exactly how long I've been ignoring you.

(surprised) Katherine.

Katherine

(pulls the pins out of two wolfsbane grenades) Kaboom.

Elena

Where's the cure?

Katherine

What? No I'm here to avenge my annoying little brother speech?

Elena

People die. We move on.

Damon

That's the calmest desiccating vampire I've ever seen. I remember when you starved me down there for three days. I would have wept at your feet for an orange peel.

Stefan

Look, she's not gonna beg for blood. Begging means desperation. Emotion. She's still a no-humanity zone.

Damon

How hungry does she have to be before we can torture some feelings back into her?

Stefan

A lot hungrier than she is now, apparently.

Damon

So, what are we supposed to do in the mean time?

Katherine

Maybe I can provide a little excitement.

Stefan

(surprised) Katherine.

Katherine

The one and only. Sort of.

Damon

Seriously. You can't knock?

Katherine

Sorry. I didn't realize we were standing on formalities.

Rebekah

What the hell are you doing here?

Katherine

You didn't get the memo? I'm here to talk some sense into poor emotionless Elena.

Matt

Are you out of your mind?

Damon

You got a better idea, Prom King? Unless you want me to lock you up in there with her, I suggest you shut up and let the adults handle this.

Rebekah

Well, it looks like the lunatics have taken over the asylum.

Elena

What the hell are you doing here?

Katherine

Your boyfriends invited me. They want to know if you still have a heart. There it is. Your bodyguards won't let me kill you, but I can rip your throat out. So I don't have to listen to you whine. But first, satisfy my curiosity,what did you tell Elijah back in Willoughby?

Elena

That's why you're here? He dumped you, didn't he? Now you're just looking for a scapegoat.

Katherine

Tell me what you said to turn him against me or I will feed you your own eyeballs.

Elena

I didn't have to say anything. Look at you. A self-obsesses egomaniac on the run for 5 centuries. What good would you be to anyone? You're the definition of damaged goods. No wonder Elijah left you.

Katherine

Yeah, I've done some pretty horrible things to survive, but unlike you, poor, delicate Elena, I don't turn it off. I deal with it. You wouldn't last a week as a vampire without everyone fawning over you. By I'd love to see you try.

Katherine

I'm perfectly aware that tombstone isn't just a hunk of rock.

Bonnie

No kidding.

Katherine

And it got me thinking, all big spells require a source of power, a recurring element like a full moon, a comet. But that tombstone is filled with the blood of your ancient reflective Katsooyay or whatever.

Bonnie

Qetsiyah.

Katherine

She was powerful enough to create the other side. So maybe, if you have her blood, you don't need a full moon to drop the veil. Maybe you can do it whenever you want. The thing I can't figure out is why do you want to drop the veil at all?

Bonnie

I have my reasons.

Katherine

And again, I ask, what's in it for me?

Bonnie

You'll get the one thing you want most in this world-- freedom, survival. Never having to run from anyone again. Once I've dropped the veil, I can speak to Qetsiyah. She created the spell that made Silas truly immortal, invulnerable to any weapon. You'd like that for yourself, wouldn't you? I can give it to you.

Katherine

Bonnie Bennett, we have a deal.

Bonnie

Okay, this is the center of the triangle. I'm ready. Now, give me the tombstone.

Katherine

The fact that this spell hinges on some crappy hunk of blood-rock does little to inspire my confidence.

Bonnie

It's filled with the calcified blood of Qetsiyah, one of the strongest witches in the world. It'll work.
