Today I received 991 pieces of email spam. GRRRR. I normally get about 150+ a day (most likely because my email address is available at most of my sites) but it’s never bothered me much. But 991 emails?!? Spam should be illegal.

So I’m finally finishing up the Top 5 requests. Here’s the last of the bunch…

Top 5 TV Quotes
1. A heart is a fragile thing. That’s why we protect them so vigorously, give them away so rarely, and why it means so much when we do. Some hearts are more fragile than others. Purer, somehow. Like crystal in a world of glass, even the way they shatter is beautiful.”
— Irv’s narration, Everwood: Episode 218 Last Looks

2. “Dawn, listen to me. Listen. I love you. I will *always* love you. But this is the work that I have to do. Tell Giles… tell Giles I figured it out. And I’m okay. And give my love to my friends. You have to take care of them now. You have to take care of each other. You have to be strong. Dawn, the hardest thing in this world… is to live in it. Be brave. Live. For me.”
— Buffy, Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Episode 522, The Gift

3. “And now that this scared little girl no longer follows me wherever I go, I miss her. I do. Cause there are things I wanna tell her — to relax, to lighten up, that it’s all going to be ok. I want her to know that meeting people who like you, who understand you, who actually accept you for who you are, will become an increasingly rare occurrence. Jen, Jack, Audrey, Andie, Pacey, and Dawson. These people who contributed to who I am, they are with me wherever I go, and as history gets rewritten in small ways with each passing day, my love for them only grows. Because the truth is… it was the best of times. Mistakes were made, hearts were broken, harsh lessons learned, but all of that has receded into fond memory now. How does it happen? Why are we so quick to forget the bad and romanticize the good? Maybe it’s because we need to believe that the time we spent together actually meant something, that we were there for each other in a time in our lives that defined us all, a time in our lives that we will never forget. I can’t swear this is exactly how it happened. But this is how it felt.”
— Joey, Dawson’s Creek: Episode 622, Joey and the Capeside Redemption

4. “We try to live responsible, logical lives. But we can’t tell our hearts how to feel. Sometimes our hearts lead us to places we never thought we wanted to go. And sometimes our hearts can be the sweetest, gentlest things we have. Sometimes our hearts can make us feel miserable, angry, excited and confused. All at once. But at least my heart is open. And I’m writing again. I’m feeling. I’m breathing. ”
— Liz, Roswell: Episode 216, Heart of Mine

5. “When things are working right in the universe, a loss of innocence is usually followed, in time, by an increase in humanity. Time is funny like that. For everything it robs us of, it grants us something. Sometimes it’s a new friend, sometimes it’s a better understanding of ourselves. Sometimes, it’s just a perfect day.”
— Irv’s narration, Everwood: Episode 107, We Hold These Truths

And an honorable mention —
“The more time I spend with Zach, the less time I think about goddamn what’s-his-face, built like a beanpole, curly hair, runs away like a little bitch on a sailboat, leaving nothing but a note for his girlfriend, who cried and cried over him until the Fourth of July when she realized she doesn’t cry over bitches on boats.”
— Summer, The OC: Episode 201, The Distance

Now. Someone explain to me why Dukes of Hazzard was #1 at the box office this past weekend?! I don’t understand.
