I lied; I was wrong. But you're my brother, Jer, and I love you, and I have to fix it. So just tell me, what can I do?
You can go to hell, Elena.

S1 E15Unfinished Business
(mockingly) I have so many emotions, but I don't have any way to express them. Being a teenager is so hard!
You're a dick!
(grabs him) You do not talk to me like that. I'm not your sister. And from now on, don't talk to your sister that way, either.
So, you're going to kill me just because I hurt Elena's feelings?
Cut her some slack!
She erased my memories.
No, I did. She was protecting you.
It wasn't her call to make.
(Damon grabs him)
Let go of me before I cause a scene.
You'd be unconscious before you even got a word out.
Elena's relationship with her brother is none of your business, so stay out of it.
Oh, there's only one do-gooder, hero role available? My bad, I'm sorry.
Get over yourself. We both know that you're not doing this for the right reasons.
See, there you go with that little jealousy act again. It's just, what are the right reasons, Stefan? I mean, enlighten me! Please!
See, Damon, it's only real when it comes from your desire to do the right thing for nothing in return.
Right...
Yeah, and I know that that is an entirely foreign concept to you. I completely understand that you wouldn't get it.
You keep those nifty little vamp weapons in your car?
Yeah, why do you ask?
Because this square is crawling with tomb vampires. I think we might need a stake or two.
Elena [to Damon as he grabs her hand]: What are you doing?
Saving your life, in 15 words or less. Tomb vamps are here, founding families are their target. [to Stefan] Get her out of here, now!
Wait, where are you going?
That's more than 15 words, Stefan.
Mayor? Is that you?
What are you doing here?!
I'm a vampire. What's your excuse?
Stefan [about Damon]: I try so hard...to hate him. I guess it's just pointless.
We both wanna protect the people we care about. This difference is, for you, Damon is one of them. You saw what I was able to do tonight. I know who I am now. And if Damon spills so much as one drop of innocent blood, I`ll take him down — even if I have to take you with him.
I saw her killed. I was watching and all I could think about was...I wanted to help her. But I couldn't.
Anna said that vampires don't have to feel pain; that they could turn it off if they shut out their humanity.
It's very true.
Is it easier that way?
Is what easier?
Life.
Life sucks either way, Jeremy. At least if you're a vampire, you don't have to feel bad about it if you don't want to.
[To Matt] Hey, man. I'm so sorry. Look, I don't even know what happened.
It's okay, man.
You know, I came to this town wanting to destroy it. Tonight I found myself wanting to protect it. How does that happen? I'm not a hero, Elena. I don't do good. It's not...in me.
Katherine [Pretending to be Elena]: Maybe it is.
No. No, it's reserved for my brother, and you, and Bonnie... who, even though she has every reason to hate me, still helped Stefan save me.
Why do you sound so surprised?
Because she did it for you. Which means that somewhere along the way, you decided that I was worth saving. I wanted to...thank you, for that.
You know I first met Isobel when I was a teenager. I fell in love with her instantly, although I`m pretty sure she never loved me. She was special. Part of why I hate vampires so much is because of what she became. How it ruined her. And I never would've sent her to Damon had I known she wanted to turn. It`s my fault. I`m telling you this because I hope maybe you'd understand.
Katherine?!
Hello, John. Goodbye, John. [Stabs him]
When were you at the house?
Really? Earlier...on the porch...we were talking...cathartic feelings exposed...come on, we kissed, Elena!
Okay... I don't have time for this, Damon.
Hey! If you want to forget it happened, fine. But I can't.
