Season 4 quotes

The Freshman

Willow: "Professor Walsh is supposed to be great. She's world-renowned."
Buffy: "How do you get to be renowned? I mean, like, do you have to be nowned first?"
Willow: "Yes, First there's the painful nowning process."

Willow: "'Images of Pop Culture.' This is good. They watch movies, TV shows, even commercials."
Buffy: "For credit?"
Willow: "Isn't college cool?"

Willow: "You did sort of wait until the last minute with your course selection."
Buffy: "Sorry, Miss 'I chose my major in play-group.'"

Willow: "It's just, in high school, knowledge was pretty much frowned upon. You really had to work to learn anything. But here, the energy, the collective intelligence... It's like this force, this penetrating force, and I can just feel my mind opening up, you know, and letting this place just thrust into and- and spurt knowledge into... That sentence ended up in a different place than it started out in."

Willow: "Ooh, boyfriend! It's my on-campus boyfriend."
Buffy: "Oh, no, I forgot to pick mine up. Line's probably really long now, too."

Willow: Well, [Giles] says he's enjoying being a gentleman of leisure.
Buffy: Gentleman of leisure? Isn't that just British for unemployed?
Willow: Uh uh. He's a slacker now.

Willow: He said he wasn't coming back until he'd driven to all fifty states.
Buffy: Did you explain about Hawaii?
Willow: Well, he seemed so determined.

Buffy: "Yeah, this is great, you know, if we ever need a place for the Nuremberg rallies."
Willow: "This is a real library."
Man: Shhh!"
Willow: "See, we even have to whisper. It's like a whole new world."

Buffy: "I can't wait till mom gets the bill for these books. I hope it's a funny aneurysm."

Riley: It's nice to meet you both.
Buffy: I'm nice to meet.

Professor Riegert: Do you understand? You are sucking energy from everyone in this room. They came here to learn.
Buffy: I didn't mean to ... suck.

Buffy: You know, I was just wondering. Professor Walsh isn't planning on yelling at me and kicking me out of the class, is she?
Riley: It's not in her lesson plan.

Willow: "You made a friend? Good for you."
Buffy: "Thanks, mom."

Vampire Girl: "Does this sweater make me look fat?"
Sunday: "No. The fact that you're fat makes you look fat. That sweater just makes you look... purple."

Buffy: "I think someone had just a little too much free time on their hands."
Giles: "I'm not supposed to have a private life?"
Buffy: "No! Because you're very, very old, and it's gross."

Giles: "You haven't described anything you can't do yourself."
Buffy: "Okay, remember before you became Hugh Hefner, when you used to be a Watcher?"

Buffy: "And you are?"
Sunday: "Oh, I'm Sunday. I'll be killing you here in a minute or so."
Buffy: "You know, that threat gets more frightening every time I hear it."
Boy Vampire: "Uh, are we gonna fight, or is there just gonna be a monster sarcasm rally?"

Joyce: "But I didn't move anything. It's still your room."
Buffy: "You filled it with packing crates."
Joyce: "Yeah, but I didn't move anything."
Buffy: "If it's still my room, shouldn't I be able to fit in it?"

Xander: "Basically, I got as far as Oxnard, and the engine fell out of my car. And that was literally. So, I ended up washing dishes at the fabulous "Ladies Night" club for about a month and a half while I tried to pay for the repairs. No one really bothered me, or even spoke to me, until one night when one of the male strippers called in sick, and no power on this earth will make me tell you the rest of that story. Suffice to say I traded my car in for one that wasn't entirely made of rust, came trundling back home to the arms of my loving parents, where everything was exactly as it was except I sleep in the basement, and I have to pay rent. How's college?"
Buffy: "Male strippers?"
Xander: "No power on this earth."

Buffy: "College is good."
Xander: "Okay, once more, with even less feeling."

Xander: "When it's dark, and I'm all alone, and I'm scared or freaked out or whatever, I always think - "What would Buffy do?" You're my hero. Okay, sometimes when it's dark, and I'm all alone, I'd think, 'What is Buffy wearing?'"
Buffy: "Can that be one of those things you never, ever tell me about?"

Willow: Buffy wouldn't just take off. That's just not in her nature. Except for that one time she disappeared for several months and changed her name, but there were circumstances then. There's no circumstances!

Willow: "How can you be so calm?"
Oz: "Long, arduous hours of practice."
