Say What? - quote of the week... More Quotes
Illyria: I slew the white-haired one first.
Angel: This can't be.
Illyria: And then Wesley, as he raised his weapon... and your demon clown as he wilted in terror.
Angel: And I'm next.
Illyria: No, vampire. You were last.
Angel: Why?
Illyria: You know nothing of this. You're from an earlier point in the time line. You are a paradox. You're impossible.
Angel: We attacked you.
Illyria: I didn't give you the chance. That you learn when you become a king... Unh!... You learn to destroy everything that's not utterly yours. All that matters is victory. That's how your reign persists. You're a slave to an insane construct. You are moral. A true ruler is as moral as a hurricane, empty but for the force of his gale... But you... trapped in the web of the Wolf, the Ram, the Hart. So much power here, and you quibble at this price. If you want to win a war, you must serve no master but your ambition.
