"I don't think she wanted to be saved, Spike. You can't blame yourself for what happened to her... because I don't blame you. I feared that it would be you I would have to fight one day, not her. Vengeance blackens the soul. We all walk the edge of that abyss every day. But you didn’t fall in, and I thank Faust for that." [He gets down on one knee to look Spike in the eye.] "But look at me. Twilight fell into that pit years ago. She never believed in fair play. She made her choices and I don’t think anyone, not even I, could have pulled her back. Those who seek to destroy others because of jealousy and greed only destroy themselves."
Shining Armor

"Ah, my bread and butter: thrill-seeking rich kids with a poor grasp of statistics and probability. Not to mention more money than brains."
