Elena Gilbert

— Does it get tiring, being so righteous?
— It flares up in the presence of psychopaths.
— Well, consider this psychopath's feelings hurt.

— Is Stefan here?
— Yep.
— Where is he?
— And good morning to you, Little Miss I'm-on-a-Mission.
— How can you be so arrogant and glib afetr everything that you've done?
— And how can you be so brave and stupid to call a vampire arrogant and glib?

When you lose someone, it stays with you. Always reminding you of how easy it is to get hurt.

— What's wrong with you?
— I'm miserable.
— You should go get something to eat.

— Thank you.
— For what?
— For being such a monumental disappointment.

Trust breeds trust. You have to give it to get it.

When someone asks, "How are you?" they really don't want an answer.

— Where are we?
— In Georgia.
— Georgia? No, no, no, we're not. Seriously, Damon, where are we?
— Seriously, we're in Georgia.

We're a pair. I quit, you start.

— Jer?
— No, it's me. The hypocrite patrol.

— He waited 145 years only to find out that Katherine could not care less. And it's gotta hurt, right?
— And it couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.

— What are you doing here?
— I'm hiding from Caroline.
— And why is that?
— I needed a break. She talks more than I can listen.

— He hates me.
— That's not hate. That's, "You dumped me, but I'm too cool to show it..."

All you can do is be ready for the good... So when it comes, you invite it in because you need it. I need it.

What you don't know can hurt you.

— He's not you. Not even close.
— Well, he doesn't wanna be me. But that doesn't mean that deep down that he's not.
