Favorite Stefan Salvatore Quotes
I'm not going anywhere because I love you.
Stefan: I had a chance to kill her and I hesitated.
Damon: Well, that is the fork in the road between you and me, my friend. I don't hesitate.
Elena: How come you're so much better at controlling it?
Stefan: Because I'm so much worse when I don't.
Come on, Damon. You think I'm afraid of a Ripper? I invented the word.
Caroline: Why are you here?
Stefan: Because you're my friend. Because I know what it feels like to lose a mother. And because when you told me you hated me, it was pretty much the worst thing I had heard in a long time.
Caroline: I think we both know I never really hated you.
Everything you know, and every belief you know is about to change. Are you ready for that?
[to Elena] If you're going to dump me, I figure you should at least know who you're dumping. Let's start with Katherine. She had this perfect olive skin. She had this perfect laugh. She was also impatient, impulsive. Enter Damon. He claims he was with her first. I don't know. I do know I did some things I'm not proud of. My biggest regret is not being able to make things right before she died. I miss her, but I'm not crippled.
You're my brother. I'm not gonna give up on you. I never will.
Damon inspired you, he pushed you to own the darkest parts of yourself. And when you died he was the only one that could make you feel alive again and you made him feel human. You loved Damon for the same reasons that I loved Damon. Because in spite of every single thing that he did, we couldn't live without him. Now you don't have to, but I do.
Stefan: So, I realize it doesn't matter.
Caroline: What doesn't matter?
Stefan: It doesn't matter what book your mom reads in her final precious moments. It doesn't matter if it's good or if it's terrible. It doesn't matter because life isn't about your final moments. It's about the moments that led up to them.
Damon: Clarity over cleverness. That's what I always say.
Stefan: You've literally never said that before.
Damon: So what's it going to be, huh? Fight to the death?
Stefan: I'm not going to fight you.
Damon: Why?! I'd fight me.
