[while Frank & Jerry are fighting about wearing the same Santa costume] You guys, we already have the wasted angel of Bethlehem. Can we not have feuding St. Nicks?

[while dressed in a Santa suit] Sit on my lap and tell me what you want for Christmas, little girl.
I want it to be January.
Since when is Santa scary?
Since he looks like a fat, old homeless dude.
I feel like crap.
You don't look so good either.
Thanks a lot.
Why do you want to be a doctor?
I don't know. Good at science.
I became a doctor to take care of people. To heal them. [lies down]
You do. Every day.
But strangers, only strangers. And not tomorrow. [falls asleep]
S9 E11A Little Help From My Friends
Well, we work as a team. We cover for each other. We lean on each other. The job is too big to do solo. And if you can't get that, maybe you should be a surgeon or a superhero, or something else that doesn't require trusting people.
I've never been big on trust.
You know what that turns into? Nobody trusts you either. Self-sufficiency is a good thing, but it's not the only thing. Asking for help when you need it doesn't make you weak.
Did anyone ever bother to verify that there are medical schools in Croatia? Anyone?
[after he talks to a patient's mother] What are you doing? Holding your own private M & M with the kid's mother.
She wanted to know how her son died.
One word: peacefully. And leave it at that.
She deserves to know.
What? What, the truth? The truth is you killed her son. You want to tell her that?
Sorry, she's one of my Mathletes. Anastasia, you're going to have to go over there and sit with the rest of the team.
Mathletes?
Yeah, she's on the math team. They compete in math tournaments.
Oh yeah, we used to call them "geeks."

These numbers, discovered in different cultures, in different centuries, all add to zero, proving the universe is perfect. Proving the existence of God.
Hey, I can't even prove I paid my gas bill.
S9 E12A Saint in the City
Okay, cowboy, I've got a vascular surgeon, an anesthesiologist, and three surgical residents waiting upstairs in an OR suite that rents for five grand an hour.
He wants to stay with his wife.
Well, isn't that touching.
She's dying.
Yeah, well, if doesn't die faster, he's going to be dying with her.
I've explained all that.
I'm going upstairs. If he's not up there in five minutes, I'm going take out your spleen.
Luka, why is Jessie Callahan still in Trauma 1? I'm curious because you pronounced her dead an hour ago.
Her husband wouldn't go up to the OR unless she passed, so I unhooked her leads and pronounced her. Why?
Good God! What happens when he comes back down from surgery and finds out his wife is still alive?
I'll tell him it was a miracle.
Call psych. The sun goes down and the nuts come out.

Have you ever heard of the 1st Amendment?
Have you ever heard of an awake colonoscopy?

[about Dr. Romano] I was on the committee that hired that man.
He's an excellent surgeon.
ABAlderman Bright
Tragic about his arm. A lot of people downtown wish it had been his head.
