WILLOW: Oh, ruler of my country, Oedipus, you see our company around the Altar, and I, the priest of Zeus!

XANDER: Ha, ha! They prophesize that I should kill my father. But he is dead. And hidden deep in the soil. But surely I must fear my mother's bed.

BUFFY: Oh, Oedipus, Oedipus, unhappy Oedipus, that is all I can call you, and all that I ever shall call you.

XANDER: Darkness! And horror of darkness. Unfolding, restless, visitant, sped by an ill wind in haste. Madness, and... Madness a-and stabbing pain, and, a-and, uh... oh... oh... memory of, uh, i-ill deeds I have done.
