Events that have stayed powerful for me, in no particular order save the last one:
"Full of Grace" at the end of 'Becoming' - got to watch from 'Suprise' onwards for it to work though.
The hilltop speech in 'Amends'. The greatest Buffy moment ever.
The "This is the world we made" sequence in the 'The Wish'.
Angelus's speeches in 'Passion'. It does indeed rule us all.
Spike's immolation in 'Chosen'.
Drusilla's speech to Spike in 'Crush' (an odd one I know).
Tara/Giles refrain in 'Once More...'
"My whole life - I've never loved anything else." from 'Wild at Heart'.
A whole bunch more (trying to spread over the seasons) but no. 1 for never losing impact....
'Prophecy Girl' - when Buffy finds out she is going to die. "Read me the signs! Tell me my fortune!" The moment when SMG and the series came of age.

It's the mostly dialogue-less episode of Buffy from season four.

I have to say:
The Wish
This Year's Girl
when Buffy stabs Faith/the Faith dream sequence in Graduation Day Pts 1/2
Buffy killing herself
Willow's transformation
the empowering bit in Chosen
Tara's death
The part where Giles listens to the Led Zepplin song in "Forever" (I am SO convinced he was in love with Joyce)
have lost impact?
Buffy getting thrown out
Any Oz/Willow
Angel/Buffy Season 3
A LOT of Spike from the seventh season.

How are ships unlike food?
1. If you try it and don't like it, you don't have to do it again.
2. You can have as much as you want, when you want.
3. Cravings can be very specific.
I mean, hello it's not as if there's 'ship police?

Most of the best moments from season two still have incredible impact, while a lot of season three, apart from the final two episodes, has lost its impact. I always thought, if there were an overrated season of Buffy, it would definitely be three...
There are a lot of other moments and events which I can't be bothered listing here but when it comes to episodes, 'Restless' is the one that never loses its impact no matter how many times you watch it. This is because you keep discovering new things on repeat viewings.

It's an episode Joss wrote in which demons steal the voices of everyone in Sunnydale. Thus, most of the episode is mimed, mouthed, whatever. There isn't dialogue.
EDIT: Forget it. http://www.buffyguide.com/

How ever much I saw you as half a sissy before, pales in comparison to the full blown sissy I see you now.
People love a happy ending. So every episode, I will explain once again that I don't like people. And then Mal will shoot someone. Someone we like. And their puppy. - Joss
" They don't like it when you shoot at 'em. I worked that out myself. "
