Buffy the Vampire Favorite Quotes
Season 7, episode 5: "Selfless"
Aud:
The rapid reproductive rate of our rabbits has given me an idea.
I can give the excess out to the townspeople, exchanging them
not for goods or services, but for goodwill and the sense of
accomplishment that stems from selflessly giving of yourself to
others.
Olaf: Ha ha ha! Sweet Aud! Your logic is insane and
happenstance, like that of a troll.
Olaf: I've told you a thousand times, I have no
interest in this Rannveig. Her hips are large and load-bearing,
like a Baltic woman. Your hips are narrow, like a Baltic woman
from a slightly more arid region.
Olaf: Stop! Stop! It is Olaf!
Villager: The troll is doing an Olaf impersonation!
Olaf: I am Olaf!
Villager: Hit him with fruits and various meats!
Aud: What
would I have to do?
D'Hoffryn: What you do best — help wronged women punish
evil men.
Aud: Vengeance.
D'Hoffryn: But only to those who deserve it.
Aud: They all
deserve it.
D'Hoffryn: That's where I was going with that, yeah.
Buffy: I
killed Angel! (pauses) Do you even remember that? I would have
given up everything I had to be with— I loved him more than I
will ever love anything in this life. And I put a sword through
his heart because I had to.
Willow: And
that all worked out okay.
Buffy: Do you
remember cheering me on? Both of you! Do you remember giving me
Willow's message... "kick his ass"?
Willow
(shocked): I never said that!
Xander: This is
different!
Buffy: It's
always different! It's always complicated. And at some point,
someone has to draw the line, and that is always going to be me!
You get down on me for cutting myself off, but in the end the
Slayer is always cut off. There's no mystical guidebook, no
all-knowing council. Human rules don't apply! There's only me. I
am the law.
Xander: There
has to be another way.
Buffy: Then
please find it.
D'Hoffryn: The flaying of Warren Meers? Oh, truly
inspired. That was water cooler vengeance. Lloyd has a sketch of
it on his wall.
Anya: This is
getting to be a pattern with you, Buffy. Are there any friends
of yours left you haven't tried to kill?
D'Hoffryn (referring to Buffy): I think we already
know what lady hacks-away wants.
Anya: Xander -
what if I'm really nobody?
Xander: Don't
be a dope.
Anya: I'm a dope?
Xander:
Sometimes.
Anya: That's a
start.
