Quotes 

• Buffy Summers : Giles, are you sure about this?

  Rupert Giles : Why wouldn't I be?

  Buffy Summers : Well, aside from the fact that most magic shop owners in Sunnydale have the life expectancy of a Spinal Tap drummer, have you ever run a store before?

  Rupert Giles : I was a librarian for years. This is exactly the same, except people pay for the things they never return. It'll give me focus, help increase my resources, and it'll prevent you lot from trampling all over my flat at all hours. There may even be some space for you to train in the back.

  Buffy Summers : Boy, you've really thought this through. How bored *were* you last year?

  Rupert Giles : I watched "Passions" with Spike. Let us never speak of it.

• Rupert Giles : I'm just not used to this automatic transmission. I... I loathe this just sitting here, not contributing. No, no, no, no. It's not working out.

  Buffy Summers : Giles, are you breaking up with your car?

  Rupert Giles : Well, it did seduce me, all red and sporty.

  Buffy Summers : Little two-door tramp.

  Rupert Giles : [to Buffy]  There is nothing but you... You are the center... And within you, there is the core of your being... of what you are... Find it... Breathe into it... Focus inward. Let the world fall away... Fall away... Fall away.
