Angelus: [Angelus comes out from behind a pile of crates] Gotta be talking about Buffy.
Gage Petronzi: [stops and faces him] How'd you know?
Angelus: Uh, she and I... had this thing once. Biggest mistake of my life.
Gage Petronzi: Yeah. My condolences, dude. [turns and goes]
Angelus: [follows] She's a real head-tripper.
Gage Petronzi: Tell me about it. Girl acts like she's God's gift or something.
Angelus: Who is she? The Chosen One?
Gage Petronzi: Exactly.
Angelus: You know, what she really needs is for someone to really knock her down off her notches.
Gage Petronzi: Yeah, that'd be sweet. Anyone in mind?
Angelus: You're in luck, my friend. [Gage turns to look at Angelus and sees that he has disappeared]
Angelus: Just so happens... [Gage turns back quickly and sees Angelus standing there in front of him in his game face]
Angelus: ... I'm recruiting. [Gage looks horrified as Angelus grabs him and bites his neck]
Gage Petronzi: No! [Buffy strolls out of the Bronze and hears Gage's screams]
Gage Petronzi: Ah! Somebody! Help! Ah! Help! Ah! Ah! Get him off me! Help! Ah! [She rushes to his aid. Cut to Angelus. He drops Gage and begins to spit out his blood. He wipes his mouth and spits some more. Buffy comes running around the corner, and just as he looks up she does a roundhouse kick to his face. He isn't fazed, and just looks at her. She pulls out the stick holding her hair up and holds it ready to stake him as her hair falls down around her face]

Buffy: I mean, we fought for all these years and then... Sometimes you just look at someone and you know, you know?

Buffy: [to Giles] To make you a vampire they have to suck your blood. And then you have to suck their blood. It's like a whole big sucking thing. Mostly they're just gonna kill you. Why am I still talking to you?

TV Show: Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Giles: The influx of the undead, the... supernatural occurrences, it's been building for years. There's a reason why you're here and a reason why it's now!

Buffy: You really haven't been dating lately.

Giles: [To Willow] Well then help me in researching this Harvest affair. It seems to be some sort of preordained massacre. Rivers of blood, hell on Earth. Quite charmless. I'm a bit fuzzy, however, on the details. [about a computer] It may be that you can wrest some information from that dread machine. [everyone stares] That was a bit, um, British, wasn't it?
Buffy: Welcome to the New World.

Giles: [to himself] The Earth is doomed.

Principal Flutie: We all need help with our feelings. Otherwise we bottle them up, and before you know it, powerful laxatives are involved. I really believe if we all reach out to one another we can beat this thing. I'm always here if you need a hug, [jumps back] but not a real hug! Because there's no touching, this school is sensitive to wrong touching.

The Master: [reading from the writing of Aurelius] "There will be a time of crisis, of worlds hanging in the balance. And in this time shall come the Anointed, the Master's great warrior. And the Slayer will not know him, will not stop him. And he will lead her into Hell." As it is written, so shall it be. "Five will die, and from their ashes the Anointed shall rise. The Brethren of Aurelius shall greet him, and usher him to his immortal destiny." As it is written, so shall it be. "And one of the Brethren shall go out hunting the night before and get himself killed, because he couldn't wait to finish his job before he ate." Oh, wait...
[He grabs one of the Brethren by the throat]
The Master: That's not written anywhere. The Anointed will be my greatest weapon against the Slayer. If you fail to bring him to me... If you allow that girl to stop you...
[He throws the vampire into a coffin]
The Master: Here endeth the lesson.
