Darla: So, where have you two been?
Drusilla: May I tell?
Spike: No need to be humble.
Drusilla: My little Spike just killed himself a slayer.
Darla: Did you hear that?
Angel: Congratulations. I guess that makes you one of us.

Holland: That’s really the question you should be asking yourself, isn’t it? See, for us, there is no fight. Which is why winning doesn’t enter into it. We go on - no matter what. Our firm has always been here. In one form or another. The Inquisition. The Khmer Rouge. We were there when the very first cave man clubbed his neighbor. See, we’re in the hearts and minds of every single living being. And that, friend, is what’s making things so difficult for you. See, the world doesn’t work in spite of evil, Angel. It works with us. It works because of us.

Holland: Welcome to the home office.
Angel: This isn’t…
Holland: Well, you know it is. You know that better than anyone. Things you’ve seen. Things you’ve, well… done. You see, if there wasn’t evil in every single one of them out there…why, they wouldn’t be people. They’d all be angels. Have a nice day.

Can’t even shout/ can’t even cry/ the Gentlemen are coming by/ looking in windows/ knocking on doors/ they need to take seven/ and they might take yours/ can’t call to mom/ can’t say a word/ you’re gonna die screaming but you won’t be heard

Top 5 Buffyverse villains  | 3. The Gentlemen

Angel: Thousands of people are dead because of what you’ve done.
Jasmine: And how many will die because of you? I could’ve stopped it, Angel. All of it. War, disease, poverty. How many precious, beautiful lives would’ve been saved in a handful of years? Yes, I murdered thousands to save billions. This world is doomed to drown in its own blood now.
Angel: The price was too high, Jasmine. Our fate has to be our own, or we’re nothing. Look, we’ve all done terrible things. All we can do is try and make up for it. So, OK, you know, it’s not the world you wanted, but maybe you can still help us make it better, even if you have lost your powers.
Jasmine: Not all of them. (punches Angel) You think the price was too high? You haven’t begun to pay! Maybe you’re right. Maybe I can still make this world a better place. One body at a time. I loved this world. I sacrificed everything I was to be with you.
Angel: So you could rule us?
Jasmine: Because I cared. The other Powers don’t. Never really did. You know that’s true in your heart.

Warren: It was an accident, you know -
Willow: Oh. You mean, instead of killing my best friend you killed my girlfriend.
Warren: It wasn’t personal, that’s all!
Willow: Well, this is.
