Chicago Fire Season 1 quotes

Forget gratitude, appreciation. Maybe not getting sued is as good as it gets these days.

I just don't understand any of it.

People need to find meaning when someone they love dies.

Oatmeal?! If I wanted to be healthy and miserable, I would've stayed home!

I asked Shay and she said women like a bad boy.

Otis

So you basically asked a lesbian what she looks for in men?

How's everything with you and Dawson? [Casey looks at him and scoffs] What?

Well, I'm very happy by myself, but I just moved here from Pittsburgh. And I was reading this article about prisons, and the author made a point that the most severe punishment in any culture is solitary confinement.

We work a dangerous job. We all knew that when we signed up. A firefighter dies in the line of duty, we are shocked. Our hearts are broken. But in some dark corner of our mind, we are bracing ourselves for that possibility. But a firefighter takes her own life? That is not a contingency that we can prepare for. We can't change what happened. But we can learn from it. We all missed the signs here. And we can never let it happen again. So you reach out to each other. You be there for each other. Not just for today, or this week always. I never want to see another member of this family slip through the cracks.
