Eleanor Carter quotes from E.R.

I got stabbed! I got stabbed in the back! Where the hell were you? You were in the same place you've been my entire life. You were someplace else.

Eleanor Carter

We came back.

Three weeks later.

We were stuck in Tokyo, and you said you were fine.

Well, I wasn't fine, and it wasn't okay.

Eleanor Carter

Are you going to blame me for taking drugs?

No, I am blaming you for not being my mother! Bobby died and I lost a mother.

Eleanor Carter

May I go to bed now?

Yeah, run away.

[When his mother is spending time with a young boy with cancer] Mom, he has leukemia.

Eleanor Carter

[When Eleanor leaves the room after Mickey starts vomiting blood] Mom, what are you doing?

Eleanor Carter

I can't. Please, take care of him...

No, the only reason I'm here is 'cause you asked for my help.

Eleanor Carter

I can't see him in that kind of pain, not again...

What did you expect?

Eleanor Carter

I don't know.

You cannot get this kid's hopes up and then leave.

You're really going to do this? You're gonna drag me back here and then bail when it gets too tough? The kid does not think he'll have to go through this alone again. Don't leave him!
