When he straightened up again, there were six Harry Potters gasping and panting in front of him.
Fred and George turned to each other and said together, “Wow — we’re identical!”
“I dunno, though, I think I’m still better-looking,” said Fred, examining his reflection in the kettle.
“Bah,” said Fleur, checking herself in the microwave door, “Bill, don’t look at me — I’m ‘ideous.”
…
“I knew Ginny was lying about that tattoo,” said Ron, looking down at his bare chest.
“Harry, your eyesight really is awful,” said Hermione, as she put on glasses.

Giles:  You have responsibilities that other girls do not.

Buffy:  Oh! I know this one! ‘Slaying entails certain sacrifices, blah, blah, bity blah, I’m so stuffy, gimme a scone.’

Giles:  It’s as if you know me.

Julian Bashir: This gives me a chance to honor her memory, and I’m gonna take it. And that, my friend, is my final word on the subject.

Miles O’Brien: You know what this means, don’t you?

Julian Bashir: Yes. That I’m risking my life for a very dubious cause.

Miles O’Brien: No. It means I’m going to risk my life for a friend who’s risking his life for a very dubious cause.

Joyce and Buffy in School Hard

Joyce:  Principal Snyder said you were a troublemaker. And I could care less. I have a daughter who can take care of herself. Who’s brave and resourceful and thinks of others in a crisis. No matter who you hang out with or what dumb teenage stuff you think you need to do, I’m gonna sleep better knowing all that.

Odo: Nerys – I realize that things may seem bleak at the moment; but there’s always hope.

Kira Nerys: When did you turn into an optimist?

Odo: Changed my life.

“No!” he said loudly, his voice ringing through the kitchen. “No way!”
“I told them you’d take it like this,” said Hermione with a hint of complacency.
“If you think I’m going to let six people risk their lives — !”
“— because it’s the first time for all of us,” said Ron.
“This is different, pretending to be me —”
“Well, none of us really fancy it, Harry,” said Fred earnestly. “Imagine if something went wrong and we were stuck as specky, scrawny gits forever.”
Harry did not smile.
“You can’t do it if I don’t cooperate, you need me to give you some hair.”
“Well, that’s that plan scuppered,” said George. “Obviously there’s no chance at all of us getting a bit of your hair unless you cooperate.”
“Yeah, thirteen of us against one bloke who’s not allowed to use magic; we’ve got no chance,” said Fred.
