Behavior, Elena from Vampire Diaries

Alaric: Did you get anything?
Elena: How do you feel about a little hike through the Smoky Mountains?
Alaric: You wanna hunt down a pack of werewolves on a full moon?
Elena: We'll be out of there before the moon is full. If you don't come with me, I'm going by myself. What? You're the one who told me that I could handle things on my own now.
Alaric: Yea, I meant like frozen dinners and SATs. A-all right fine. Let's just... Let's just go. But, uh, you're driving.

Love, Elena from Vampire Diaries

Elena: What I said earlier, about you leaving... It was harsh.
Stefan: No, no, you... You had every right.
Elena: You asked me what I wanted my future to be. I wanted to be a writer. My mom sort of... pushed me into that direction from the time I was able to read. She supported me, encouraged me, bought me my first journal... and then she died. And I can't see myself being a writer any more. That was something that we shared. I know that you think that you brought all of this bad stuff into my life, but my life already had it. I was buried in it.
Stefan: This is different.
Elena: It doesn't make it any less painful.
Stefan: I know that it's... That it's hard to understand, but I'm doing this for you. (Gets out of the car, leaving Elena inside)
Elena: (Thinks, and gets out of the car, with a determined face) No. You don't get to make that decision for me. If you walk away, it's for you because I know what I want. Stefan I love you.

Life, Nina Dobrev as Elena Gilbert from Vampire Diaries

Dear Diary, I'm not a believer. People are born, they grow old and then they die. That's the world we live in. There's no magic, no mysticism, no immortality. There is nothing that defies rational thought. It's not possible. I'm not a believer, I can't be. But how can I deny what's right in front of me? Someone who never grows old.. never gets hurt.. someone who changes in ways that can't be explained. Girls bitten.. bodies drained of blood..

Love, Nina Dobrev as Elena Gilbert from Vampire Diaries

Elena: He [Damon] told me about your ex.. Katherine?
Stefan: What did he say?
Elena: She broke your heart.
Stefan: It was a long time ago.
Elena: When you lose someone, it stays with you. Always reminding you of how easy it is to get hurt.
Stefan: Elena…
Elena: It's okay Stefan, I get it. You have no idea how much I get it. Complicated brother? Check. Complicated ex? Check. Too complicated to even contemplate dating? Check. We met and we talked and it was epic, but then the sun came up and reality set in.

Celebrities, Nina Dobrev

When I have an audition I don’t pick up the phone, I sit at home and I dissect the scenes to the bone. There’s a lot of time and work that goes into it.

Life, Nina Dobrev as Elena Gilbert from Vampire Diaries

Dear Diary, I made it through the day. I must have said "I'm fine, thanks" at least 37 times. And I didn't mean it once. But no one noticed. When someone asks "How are you?", they really don't want an answer.

Life, Nina Dobrev as Elena Gilbert from Vampire Diaries

Dear Diary, Today will be different. It has to be. I will smile, and it will be believable. My smile will say, "I'm fine, thank you. Yes, I feel much better." I will no longer be the sad little girl that lost her parents. I will start fresh, be someone new. It's the only way I'll make it through.

Elena: People are going to stop giving you breaks, Jeremy. They just don't care any more. They don't remember that our parents are dead, they have their own lives to deal with. The rest of the world has moved on. You should try to.
Jeremy: I've seen you in the cemetery writing in your diary. Is that... is that supposed to be you moving on?
