Stefan: “I should have died that night. Just like I had chosen. I should have let Damon die too.”
Elena: “But you didn’t. And if you die now, it’s not gonna change what happened.”
Stefan: “Every single person that’s been hurt, every single life that’s been lost is because of me.”
Elena: “[…] our actions are what set things in motion, but we have to live with that.”
Stefan: “I made a choice Elena, and because of that choice a lot of people were hurt.”
Elena: “You also made a choice to stop. To reject the person that the blood made you—you made a choice to be good Stefan.”
Stefan: “No, please. Please don’t do that.”
Elena: “That’s the person that jumped in to save that family who’s car went over the bridge—”
Stefan: “Please don’t make this okay.”
Elena: “That’s the person who saved my life.”
Stefan: “You don’t understand, Elena.”
Elena: “Then tell me.”
Stefan: “It hurts me, it hurts me knowing what I’ve done and that pain, that pain is with me all the time. And everyday I think that if I just give myself over to the blood I can make that pain stop. It would be that easy and everyday I fight that. And I am so terrified that one day I’m not gonna wanna fight that anymore Elena. The next time I hurt somebody, it could be you.”
Elena: “There will be no next time.”
Stefan: “You don’t know that.”
Elena: “Maybe I don’t. But I do know, is that you can take this, throw it in the quarry and let the sun rise. Or you can take this ring and put it on and keep fighting. It’s your choice.” — The Vampire Diaries 1x20 “Blood Brothers”

Angel: “I can’t do it again, Buffy, I can’t become a killer.”
Buffy: “Then fight it.”
Angel: “It’s too hard.”
Buffy: “Angel you have to get inside!”
Angel: “It told me to kill you, you were in the dream, you know. It told me to lose my soul in you and become a monster again.”
Buffy: “I know what it told you. What does it matter?!”
Angel: “Because I wanted to! Because I want you so badly. I want to take comfort in you, and I know it’ll cost me my soul and a part of me doesn’t care. Look, I’m weak, I’ve never been anything else. It’s not the demon in me that needs killing Buffy, it’s the man.”
Buffy: “You’re weak, everybody is. Everybody fails. Maybe if this evil did bring you back, but if it is it’s because it needs you. And that means you can hurt it. Angel, you have the power to do real good. To make amends. But if you die now then all you ever were was a monster.”
Angel: “[…] do you think this is simple?! Do you think there’s an easy answer. You can never understand what I’ve done. Now go.”
Buffy: “You are not staying here I won’t let you—”
Angel: “Am I a thing worth saving, huh? Am I a righteous man?! The world wants me gone.”
Buffy: “What about me? I love you so much, and I tried to make you go away. I killed you and it didn’t help. And I hate it! I hate that it’s so hard, and that you can hurt me so much. I know know everything that you did because you did it to me. God, I wish that I’d wished you dead. I don’t—I can’t.”
Angel: “Buffy please, just this once let me be strong.”
Buffy: “Strong is fighting. It’s hard, and it’s painful, and it’s every day. It’s what we have to do. And we can do it together. But if you’re too much of a coward for that, then burn. If I can’t convince you that you belong in this world then I don’t know what can. But do not expect me to watch, and don’t expect me to mourn for you.” — Buffy the Vampire Slayer 3x10 “Amends”
