Angel Quotes l Cordelia Quotes

Angel: What am I doing?
Cordy: You’re trying to push me away, close yourself off.
Angel: That’s not what. . .
Cordy: Well, I got news for you, broody boy. We’re all we’ve got now. You may not like sharing your grief with others, but that’s the normal, healthy way people deal with loss. I’m not going anywhere, so get used to it.

Cordy: Doyle? Well, he drank too much and his taste in clothing was like a Greek tragedy. And he could be really sweet sometimes. You’ll like this: he was half demon. A secret he kept from me for – like- ever. I guess that’s the reason he sometimes smelled weird?

Wes: I’m a rogue demon hunter now.
Cordy: Oh, wow. - What’s a rogue demon?
Wes: Angel. I know how to track him. You’re not catch him without me by your side.
Angel: I had someone by my side. He’s dead now. I won’t let that happen again. I work alone.

Cordy: I’m never going to forgive him for doing this to me.
Barney: What? Choosing you? Trusting you with an enormous responsibility? Believing that you where the only one worthy of such a rare and important gift?
Cordy: Did I mention the drooling?
Barney: I get the impression that Doyle didn’t have much by way of possessions?
Cordy: No. No he didn’t.
Barney: Seems like he gave you the most valuable thing he had.

Cordy: You don’t know anything about me or Doyle.
Barney: I know you let him die.
Cordy: That is not true.
Barney: No. But it feels true, doesn’t it? Mixed in with all the pain and the grief, oh, a healthy dollop of guilt. A nagging thought that – that maybe some how you could have saved him. If only you’d have been nicer to him. If only you’d let your walls down. If only for ONE freaking second you gave a damn about anyone besides yourself.

Cordy: This, I frame for saving my life, and as a reminder that something of Doyle’s in our office.
