Buffy Brings In Graduation

"It's been a long road getting here. For you... for Sunnydale. There has been achievement, joy, good times... and there has been grief. There's been loss. Some people who should be here today... aren't. But we are. Journey's end. And what is a journey? Is it just... distance traveled? Time spent? No. It's what happens on the way, it the things that happen to you. At the end of the journey you're not the same."
-Mayor Wilkins, "Graduation Day Pt. 2"
