• Willow Rosenberg : [to Buffy]  Have you Googled her yet?

  Xander Harris : Willow, she's seventeen!

  Willow Rosenberg : It's a search engine.

• Willow Rosenberg : I-I don't know what I can do? I mean, frankly, I'm- I'm scared of what I *might* do.

  Xander Harris : Yeah, I get that. Figuring out how to control your magic seems a lot like hammering a nail. Well, uh, hear me out. So you're hammering, right? If you hold the end of the hammer, you have the power, but no control. It takes, like, two strokes to hit the nail in, or you could hit your thumb.

  Willow Rosenberg : Ouch.

  Xander Harris : So you choke up. Control, but no power. It could take, like, ten strokes to knock the nail in. Power, control. It's a tradeoff.

  Willow Rosenberg : That's actually not a bad analogy.

  Xander Harris : Thanks.

  Willow Rosenberg : Except I'm less worried about hitting my thumb, and more worried about going all black-eyed baddy and bewitching that hammer into cracking my friends' skulls open like coconuts.

  Xander Harris : Right. Ouch.
