Lazarus and The Doctor in “The Lazarus Experiment”

I find that nothing's ever exactly like you expect. There's always something to surprise you. "Between the idea and the reality, between the motion and the act--"

"Falls the Shadow."

: So the mysterious Doctor knows his Eliot. I'm impressed.

I wouldn't have thought you had time for poetry, Lazarus, what with you being busy defying the laws of nature and all.

You're right, Doctor. One lifetime's been too short for me to do everything I'd like. How much more I'll get done in two or three or four.

It doesn't work like that. Some people live more in twenty years than others do in eighty. It's not the time that matters, it's the person.

But if it's the right person, what a gift that would be.

Or what a curse. Look at what you've done to yourself.

Who are you to judge me?
