season 1

  • Giles, I'm sixteen years old. I don't wanna die. (Prophecy Girl)

season 2

  • That's everything, huh? No weapons, no friends. No hope. Take all that away and what's left? // Me. (Becoming II)
  • To forgive is an act of compassion, Buffy. It's not done because people deserve it. It's done because they need it. (I Only Have Eyes for You)
  • You mean life? // Yeah. Does it get easy? // What do you want me to say? // Lie to me. // Yes. It's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true. The bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after. // Liar. (Lie to Me)
  • Bottom line is even if you see 'em coming, you're not ready for the big moments. No one asks for their life to change, not really. But it does. So, what, are we helpless? Puppets? No. The big moments are gonna come, you can't help that. It's what you do afterwards that counts. That's when you find out who you are. (Becoming I)
  • Passion. It lies in all of us, sleeping, waiting. And though unwanted, unbidden, it will stir, open its jaws, and howl. Passion is the source of our finest moments: the joy of love, the clarity of hatred, and the ecstasy of grief. It hurts sometimes more than we can bear. If we could live without passion, maybe we'd know some kind of peace. But we would be hollow; empty rooms, shuttered and dank. Without passion, we'd be truly dead. (Passion)

season 3

  • 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. (Amends)
  • Love isn't brains, children, it's blood. Blood screaming inside you to work its will. I may be love's bitch, but at least I'm man enough to admit it. (Lovers Walk)
  • Because this is all I do. This is what my life is. You couldn't understand. I just thought: Homecoming Queen. I could pick up a yearbook someday and say: I was there. I went to high school, I had friends, and... for one moment, I got to live in the world. And there'd be proof. Proof that I was chosen for something other than this. (Homecoming)

season 4

  • I walk. I talk. I shop. I sneeze. I'm gonna be a fireman when the floods roll back. There's trees in the desert since you moved out, and I don't sleep on a bed of bones. (Restless)
  • You think you know... what's to come... what you are. You haven't even begun. (Restless)
  • I know what it's like. You think you matter - you think you're a part of something, and you get dumped. It's like the whole world is moving and you're stuck. It's like those animals in the tar pits. It's like you just keep sinking a little deeper, every day, and no one even sees. (This Year's Girl)
  • Faith, these are innocent people. // No such animal. (This Year's Girl)

season 5

  • I don't understand how this all happens. How we go through this. I mean, I knew her, and then she's - there's just a body, and I don't understand why she just can't get back in it and not be dead anymore! It's stupid! It's mortal and stupid! And, and Xander's crying and not talking, and, and I was having fruit punch, and I thought, well Joyce will never have any more fruit punch, ever, and she'll never have eggs, or yawn or brush her hair, not ever, and no one will explain to me why. (the Body)
  • Death is on your heels, baby. And sooner or later, it's gonna catch you. And part of you wants it. Not only to stop the fear and uncertainty, but because you're just a little bit in love with it. [...] Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. Every slayer has a death wish. Even you. (Fool for Love)
  • I've had a lot of people talking at me in the last few days. Everyone just lining up to tell me how unimportant I am. And I've finally figured out why: Power. I have it; they don't. This bothers them. (Checkpoint)
  • Whatever you think you're feeling, it's not love. You can't love without a soul. // Oh, we can, you know. We can love quite well, if not wisely. (Crush)
  • The hardest thing in this world is to live in it. Be brave. Live. (the Gift)
  • We are her blood kin! Who the hell are you? // We're family. (Family)
  • I was just afraid that if you saw the kind of people I came from, you wouldn't wanna be anywhere near me. // See, that's where you're a dummy. I think about what you grew up with, and then I look at what you are — it makes me proud. It makes me love you more. (Family)
