Angel: It told me to kill you. You were in the dream. You know. It told me to lose my soul in you and become a monster again.
Buffy: I know what it told you. What does it matter?
Angel: Because I wanted to! Because I want you so badly. I wanna take comfort in you, and I know it'll cost me my soul, and a part of me doesn't care.

Angel: I'm sorry.
Jenny Calendar: You're sorry. For me? Don't bother. I'm dead. I'm over it.

Angel: I need to know why I'm here.
Giles: Here? Back on Earth?
Angel: I should be in a demon dimension suffering an eternity of torture.
Giles: I don't feel particularly inclined to argue with that.

The First: I'm not a demon, little girl. I am something that you can't even conceive. The first evil. Beyond sin, beyond death... I am the thing the darkness fears. You'll never see me, but I am everywhere. Every being, every thought, every drop of hate...
Buffy: All right. I get it, you're evil. Do we have to chat about it all day?

Buffy: What about me? I love you so much, and I tried to make you go away. I killed you and it didn't help. And I hate it! I hate that it's so hard... and that you can hurt me so much. I know everything that you did, because you did it to me. Oh, God! I wish that I wished you dead. I don't.
Buffy: I can't.
Angel: Buffy, please. Just this once, let me be strong.
Buffy: Strong is fighting! It's hard, and it's painful, and it's every day. It's what we have to do. And we can do it together. But if you're too much of a coward for that, then burn. If I can't convince you that you belong in this world, then I don't know what can. But do not expect me to watch.

You know what I've been asking myself a lot this last week? Why me? Why do I get impaled? Why do I get bitten by snakes? Why do I fall for incredible losers? And, you know, I think I've finally figured it out. What my problem is. It's Buffy Summers.

Cordelia

Giles: "In order to defeat Anyanka, one must destroy her power center. This should reverse all the wishes she's granted rendering her mortal and powerless again." You see, without her power center, she'll just be an ordinary woman again. And all of this will be, um, well, different. Well, I'd say that my Watcher muscles haven't completely atrophied after all.
Buffy: Great. What's her power center?
Giles: Um, well, um, uh... It doesn't say.
Buffy: Why don't I just put a stake through her heart?
Giles: She's not a vampire.
Buffy: Yeah? Well, you'd be surprised how many things that'll kill.
Giles: I don't want to kill her, Miss Summers. I want to reverse whatever effect she's had on this... this world.
Buffy: You're taking an awful lot on faith here, Jeeves.
Giles: Giles.
Buffy: Kill the bad fairy, destroy the bad fairy's power center, whatever... and all the troubles go away?

Angel: The Master rose. He let me live... to punish me. I kept hoping maybe you'd come. My destiny...
Buffy: Is this a "get-in-my-pants" thing? You guys in Sunnydale talk like I'm the second coming.

Xander: But, you know what really bugs me? Okay, we kissed. It was a mistake, but I know that was positively the last time we were ever gonna kiss.
Willow: Darn tootin'.
Xander: And they burst in rescuing us without even knocking? I mean this is really all their fault.
Buffy: Your logic does not resemble our earth logic.
Xander: Mine is much more advanced.

Anyanka: This is the real world now. This is the world we made.
[Giles pulls the necklace from her and pushes her away]
Anyanka: You trusting fool! How do you know the other world is any better than this?
Giles: Because it has to be.

Gwendolyn: Mr. Giles, where do you keep the rest of your books?
Giles: I'm sorry, the rest?
Gwendolyn: Yes, the actual library.
[Giles looks around]
Gwendolyn: Oh, I see.
Giles: I can assure you, Mrs. Post, this is the finest occult reference collection.
Gwendolyn Post: This side of the Atlantic, I'm sure.

Faith: What's going on?
Gwendolyn: Faith... a word of advice: You're an idiot!

Cordelia: You'll be okay here. If you hang with me and mine, you'll be accepted in no time. Of course, we do have to test your coolness factor. You're from L.A., so you can skip the written. So let's see...vamp nail polish?
