   Buffy The Vampire Slayer: Willow's 10 Best Quotes   
      
   Whether funny or wonderfully weird, Willow had some of the best quotes   
   throughout Buffy the Vampire Slayer.   
      
   BY MEGAN MONCRIEFF   
      
   Whatever the situation called for, Willow always had a brilliant way with   
   words throughout Buffy the Vampire Slayer, resulting in many great quotes.   
   Whilst she started off quite shy, fans got to watch Willow grow into a   
   strong and courageous character, who had a unique outlook on life.   
      
   Whether she was standing up for herself, or calling somebody out, a lot of   
   her comebacks were funny one-liners that showed off her quirky personality   
   perfectly. Willow's best quotes range from these quips, to more poignant   
   quotes that reflected the growth of her character.   
      
      
   When She Called Out Giles's Teaching Methods   
      
   "Instead You Go All Dumbledore On Me."   
      
   Willow always had a way of uplifting a tense moment, and this quote was no   
   different. Said to Giles in "Lessons," Willow's nerdy reference to Harry   
   Potter cut through the tension of the moment, as Giles tried to help her use   
   magic again.   
      
   As Willow tried to find her connection with magic again after her struggles   
   with darkness at the end of season 6, she grew tired of Giles's somewhat   
   eccentric approach to her recovery. Yet, even when angry, Willow managed to   
   diffuse her own anxiety and frustration with Giles with this funny   
   one-liner, and it was one of her best.   
      
      
   When She Grieved For Tara   
   .   
   "The Only Thing Going For Me, Were Those Moments - Just Moments - When Tara   
   Would Look At Me... And I Was Wonderful."   
      
   Tara's death at the end of season 6 was one of the saddest moments   
   throughout Buffy's run, and the fallout spelled devastation for everyone   
   involved. Filled with grief and rage, Willow turned to dark magic to seek   
   her revenge on Warren, Jonathan, and Andrew.   
      
   As her friends tried to stop her from going through with her treacherous   
   plans, Willow offered this line in way of explanation of the great loss she   
   was feeling. The line was a testament to the love Willow and Tara shared and   
   showed how broken Willow was now that she would never have those moments   
   again. The line was as heartbreaking as it was terrifying, as Willow had   
   lost her only source of goodness, and seemingly had nothing left to lose.   
      
      
   When She Confronted Her Mom   
      
   "I'm A Rebel! I'm Having A Rebellion! I'm Not Acting Out - I'm A Witch!"   
      
   Willow and her mom had a notoriously difficult relationship, and the two   
   came to blows in the episode "Gingerbread," when a mysterious demon   
   possessed the residents of Sunnydale. As the parents geared up to eradicate   
   any sources of the supernatural, Willow confronted her mom with this qu   
      
   Up until this point, Willow had hidden her abilities from her parents but   
   chose to reveal her powers to her mother in an act of defiance. The line did   
   well to show Willow's uneasiness with confrontation, whilst still standing   
   up for herself in a courageous, albeit earnest, way.   
      
      
   When She Made A Threat   
      
   "Hey! I Eat Danger For Breakfast."   
      
   While Willow had some bad-ass lines throughout Buffy, in the earlier seasons   
   of the show she tended to be quite shy, and relied a lot on her intellect to   
   do the talking for her. However, there were some moments where she felt the   
   need to defend her quiet nature, like with this hilarious quote.   
      
   Said in "Choices," Willow's funny line is a reminder of all the demons and   
   supernatural beings she had fought against, even if her timid demeanor   
   didn't necessarily show it. The quote was a comical take on Willow's   
   perception of her and the Scoobies' bizarre set-up of constantly saving the   
   world, but was nonetheless an insight into the feisty woman she would grow   
   to be.   
      
      
   When She Made Her True Love Clear   
      
   "I'm A Big Fan Of School. You Know, I'm All, 'Go, School, It's Your   
   Birthday!' Or Something To That Effect."   
      
   Willow's love for school was an adorable part of her personality and   
   resulted in some truly nerdy Willow scenes in Buffy. Whether it was helping   
   someone with their homework or studying for a test, Willow was always more   
   than enthusiastic about academia, reflected in this endearing quote.   
      
   Said in the episode "Tough Love," Willow's line was an ode to her love of   
   anything school related, as she defended to Buffy that she out of anyone   
   knew the importance of education. As goofy as ever, this quote shows   
   Willow's personality perfectly, especially with the sing-song way in which   
   she delivered the line.   
      
      
   When She Remembered Who She Was   
      
   "I Mean, I'm Sweaty, I'm Trapped, No Memory, Hiding In A Pipe, From A   
   Vampire - I Think I'm Kind Of Gay."   
      
   Many strange things occurred at the Magic Box, and "Tabula Rasa" covered one   
   of the strangest of all: as Willow tried to erase an argument from Tara's   
   memory, she accidentally wiped all of her friend's memories instead. The   
   incident resulted in this hilarious line from Willow, as she slowly   
   remembered who she actually was.   
      
   Even in imminent danger, Willow still found the time to figure out her   
   sexuality, mostly due to her proximity to Tara. This quote is a funny   
   insight into Willow's priorities, but also a sweet indication that even when   
   they had no clue who each other were, Willow and Tara still had an   
   undeniable connection.   
      
      
   When She Made An Observation   
      
   "I Happen To Think Mine Is The Level Head And Yours Is The One That Things   
   Would Roll Off Of."   
      
   When it came to clever comebacks, Willow always had something unique and   
   witty to fire back, and this line is a great example of that. The episode   
   "Pangs" saw a vengeance spirit released to wreak havoc on the Scoobies'   
   Thanksgiving dinner, which resulted in one of the funniest episodes of   
   Buffy.   
      
   As Giles tried to keep everyone calm, he suggested that they should all   
   "keep a level head," to which Willow responded with this funny quote. In   
   true Willow fashion, this line gave a good insight into her unorthodox way   
   of thinking that, more often than not, ended up being hilarious even when   
   unintended.   
      
      
   When She And Tara Answered The Wrong Question   
      
   "We're In Love. Lovers. We're Gay Lesbian-Type Lovers."   
      
   Tara and Willow were a perfect Buffy couple, as they shared many of the same
