The quotes i need are for (Ones i already have are crossed out, but feel free to make suggestions):

Buffy:

i have a few:

• Angelus: Now that's everything, huh? No weapons... No friends... No hope. Take all that away... and what's left?
  Buffy: Me.
  
  
• Buffy: Open your eyes, Mom. What do you think has been going on for the past two years? The fights, the weird occurrences. How many times have you washed blood out of my clothing, and you still haven't figured it out?
  
  Joyce: Well, it stops now!
  
  Buffy: No, it doesn't stop! It never stops! Do-do you think I chose to be like this? Do you have any idea how lonely it is, how dangerous? I would love to be upstairs watching TV or gossiping about boys or... God, even studying! But I have to save the world... again.
  
  
• Jonathan: We have one more award to give out. Is Buffy Summers here tonight? Did she, um... This is actually a new category. First time ever. I guess there were a lot of write-in ballots, and, um, the prom committee asked me to read this. We're not good friends. Most of us never found the time to get to know you, but that doesn't mean we haven't noticed you. We don't talk about it much, but it's no secret that Sunnydale High isn't really like other high schools. A lot of weird stuff happens here... But, whenever there was a problem or something creepy happened, you seemed to show up and stop it. Most of the people here have been saved by you, or helped by you at one time or another. We're proud to say that the Class of '99 has the lowest mortality rate of any graduating class in Sunnydale history. And we know at least part of that is because of you. So the senior class, offers its thanks, and gives you, uh, this. It's from all of us, and it has written here, "Buffy Summers, Class Protector."
  
  
• Buffy: Listen to me! Please, there's not a lot of time, listen... Dawn listen to me. Listen. I love you. I will always love you. This is the work I have to do. Tell Giles... Tell Giles I figured it out. And... I'm okay. Give my love to my friends. You have to take care of them now... you have to take care of each other. You have to be strong. Dawn, the hardest thing in this world is to live in it. Be brave. Live. For me.
  
  
• Buffy: You're right. We don't know how to fight it. We don't know when it'll come. We can't run, can't hide, can't pretend it's not the end, 'cause it is. Something's always been there to try and destroy the world. We've beaten them back, but we're not dealing with them anymore. We're dealing with the reason they exist. Evil. The strongest. The First.
  
  Giles: Buffy, I?I-I know you're tired.
  
  Buffy: I'm beyond tired. I'm beyond scared. I'm standing on the mouth of hell, and it is gonna swallow me whole. (hardens) And it'll choke on me. We're not ready? They're not ready. They think we're gonna wait for the end to come, like we always do. I'm done waiting. They want an apocalypse? Oh, we'll give 'em one. Anyone else who wants to run, do it now. 'Cause we just became an army. We just declared war. From now on, we won't just face our worst fears, we will seek them out. We will find them, and cut out their hearts one by one, until The First shows itself for what it really is. And I'll kill it myself. There is only one thing on this earth more powerful than evil, and that's us. Any questions?

Any help you guys could give me about quotes would be awesome!!!!! and if you guys wanna know which quotes i used, let me know and i'll put them in there!!!

Thanks in advance!

[Greer]

As for Angelus, I would use his passion quote. That's my personal favorite. It's not too long but really good.

Hmm...let me peruse my brain for other good ones.

[snizapman6294]

oh my god that's such a good idea!!!! **karma**

[Skytteflickan88]

Well if you need quotes; vrya.net/bdb/ep.php

vrya.net/bdb/popular.php

And here are some "name"-quotes that might describe some characters. vrya.net/bdb/aka.php

"a stuck-up tight-ass with no sense of fun"(Faith, Who are you?) could lead into a discussion about how Buffy has to be responsible and sometimes a party-pooper

And if you have the books; the watcher's guide/the casefiles,

the character-biographies(I know, wrong spelling) in them can be useful. Or look online for biographies made by fans.

[Just Willow]

this looks like a sweet project!

i got a few ideas:

Mayor:
"Now, i have two words that are going to make everything better. Miniature. Golf."

Faith:
"Five by five."
or
"Want. Take. Have"

Buffy:
okay. I'm cookie dough. I'm not done baking. I'm not finished becoming whoever the hell it is I'm going to turn out to be. I make it through this and the next thing and the next thing and maybe one day I turn around and realize I'm ready. I'm cookies. And then, you know, if I want someone to eat m- (covers) or enjoy warm, delicious cookie-me, then that's fine. That'll be then. When I'm done.

[snizapman6294]

i really like the mayor quote!

yeah for faith, i was gonna use both the ones you mentioned.

[Just Willow]

i have a list of my favorite quotes. here they are, if you wanna use them:

TARA: Things fall apart.They fall apart so hard.
WILLOW: Tara?
TARA: You can never put them back the way they were.
WILLOW: Are you okay?
TARA: I'm sorry, it's just...it takes time. You can't just have coffee and expect-
WILLOW: I know.
TARA: There's just so much to go through. Trust has to be built again on both sides. You have to learn if you're even the same people you were, if you can fit in each others' lives. It's a long, and important process. Can we just skip it? Can you just be kissing me now?
--Tara/Willow, Entropy

XANDER: Why Is She Singing?
WILLOW: She's Sad Because Her Lover Gave Her Twelve Gold Coins, But Then The Wizard Cut Open The Bag Of Salt And Now The Dancing Minions Have Nowhere To Put Their Big Maypole......Fish Thing.
XANDER: Uhuh.......Why Is She Singing? --Xander/Willow, Inca Mummy Girl

"In My Plan, We Are BELTLESS!" --Andrew, Storyteller

"Willow Doesn't Live Here Anymore" --Willow, Grave


XANDER: On The First Day Of Kindergarten You Cried Because You Broke The Yellow Crayon, And You Were Too Afraid To Tell Anyone. You've Come Pretty Far; Ending The World Not A Terrific Notion, But Yeah: I Love You. I Love Crayon Breaky Willow And I Love Scary, Veiny Willow. So If I'm Going Out, It's Here. If You Want To Kill The World, Then Start With Me. I've Earned That.
WILLOW: You Think I Won't?
XANDER: It Doesn't Matter. I'll Still Love You. --Willow/Xander, Grave

"You Single Handedly End Armageddon And Turned The World Into A Beautiful, Happily Ever After Candy Mountain Place Where All Our Dreams Come True!" --Fred, Soul Purpose

"I Feel Grief For Him. I Wish To Do More Violence." --Illyria, Not Fade Away

"You're funny, and nicely shaped. It's ludicrous to have these interlocking bodies and not...interlock. Please remove your clothing now." --Anya, Harsh Light of Day

"We Do Not Joke About Eating People In This House!" --Buffy, Older And Far Away

"It's A Big Rock. I Can't Wait To Tell All My Friends. They Don't Have A Rock This Big." --Spike, Becoming


"Then I'm...Whatever. Dust In The Wind. Candle In The Wind. There'll Be A General Wind Theme." --Faith, Orpheus

if you want others, i can get 'em!

I'm not sure if this is the correct quote but;
"In the end, we are all who we are, no matter how much we may appear to have changed." -Giles

Also, what Giles said when Buffy & Giles visit Jenny's grave, about how he burried many.
