TV show quotes
It's horrible. The sex. With Izzie... [whispers] horrible. It's like she's trying too hard. I-its... you ever seen a porno? Not that Izzie's a porno; she's an angel, but it's like she's trying to... channel a porn star and she's trying to act all dirty and sexy, which sounds great, right? But in reality I just wanna say, "Izzie, just because you can do that with your legs doesn't mean that you should.
Eh... I wanna run.
Run, run. Run now!
I love George.
Oh, God...
I do, I love him, and I'm so happy because he's kind and, um, smart and um, sweet and sexy. He's perfect, perfect, except for the fact that he kisses like a chicken. You know a chicken pecking the ground for food, just pecking and pecking and pecking, and when he's pecking at me like that I forget that I love him, I forget that he's kind and and sweet and sexy and I just wanna scream, "Stop pecking me!" Did he peck you like a chicken, Mer?
[Cristina walks into the residents lounge, where Meredith and Izzie are talking]
Morning.
[Sees her] Cristina needs me.
I'm not stalking you. I just... I hate apples. Hate them. Think they shouldn't be allowed to be a fruit. That's one. And... two, I can draw really, really well on an etch a sketch. Like, really well, like I could be a professional if, you know, that profession existed. I play the trombone... badly. Uh, I like Math. And I notice that you do this thing with your hands when you're trying to make a point, like, like, like this, with your hands. And I know that that's about you, but I... I do it, too. So it's also about me. And. so that's five. Five things that I'm hoping will make it a little bit harder for you to hate me.
[voiceover] Chemistry: either you've got it or you don´t.
[voiceover] There comes a point in your life when you're officially an adult. Suddenly, you're old enough to vote, drink, and engage in other adult activities. Suddenly, people expect you to be responsible, serious, a grown up. We get taller, we get older. But do we ever really grow up?
You don't know what he would have wanted. You're just like them, you're a prom queen and you're trying to act like you know what it's like for me. You have no idea what it's like.
I wasn't a prom queen. I was the girl in the cheap clothes from the trailer park who got pregnant, and got thrown out of pregnant girls' class, and lost all my friends. None of the mothers would let their kids hang out with me. But I got through it. You will get through this.
Your dad was in the ER today.
I know.
So, you know he was drunk and he put his hand through a window?
Yeah, anything else?
I know it was Susan's birthday, and I'm sure it was a very hard day for the both of you. And he wasn't actually a problem, he was kinda charming. But, he seemed very sad and I'd hate to see it happen again, so maybe you should think about keeping a better eye on him.
Everyday is my mother's birthday. My mother was born in March. He lied. He's a liar. And I'm glad. Really, I'm glad that you found him charming. I'm sure he was delightful. He's a blast after five drinks, not so much after nine though; he gets a little weepy and mean. He's a drunk, Meredith. He probably came in and told you how wonderful you are. How sad he is that he doesn't get to spend more time with you. You know, yesterday he said that I was his favorite daughter. The day before, I was an ungrateful bitch. The week before, he wrote me a check for twenty-thousand dollars because he said I deserved everything life had to offer, because he was so proud of me, a lifetimes worth of proud. So you can't listen to anything that he says, because it's not about you. It's about a pint of Dewar's. So thank you for letting me know that I need to keep a better eye on him. Thanks.
[voiceover] In some ways we grow up. We have families, we get married, divorced. But for the most part, we still have the same problems that we did when we were fifteen. No matter how much we grow taller, grow older, we are still forever stumbling, forever wondering, forever... young.
[voiceover] We go into medicine because we want to save lives. We go into medicine because we want to do good. We go into medicine for the rush, for the high, for the ride. But, what we remember at the end of most days are the losses. What we lay awake at night replaying is the pain we caused or failed to cure. The lives we ruined or failed to save. So the experience of practicing medicine rarely resembles the goal. The experience too often is ass backwards and upside down.
Hey!
I'm late for Sloan's meeting.
Yeah, so am I.
Also, I'm not speaking to you. [Alex kisses her and she kisses back] I'm still not speaking to you.
You don't have to speak. [They gaze at each other until Meredith comes up the hall]
Late for Sloan. [Alex leaves abruptly, and Lexie looks frustrated]
[about a dying paramedic's wife] I've never met her before, and yet I'm the person who handed her the worst day of her life. In her story that's who I am. That's who I'll always be.
That's the job.
That's the job, I know.
Look at me. This day, this day you feel helpless, this day makes all those other days when you fight to save a life and lose, this day makes you grateful that you have a chance to do anything at all. Take it in.
[Dr.Hahn complimented Mark's skills and he told her the story of his dead mentor, who was like a father to him]
What are we, on a date here? I was complimenting your surgical skills, Dr. Sloan. Not looking through a window into your wounded soul.
Well, Dr. Bailey did save your life today. A black woman saved your life at a great personal cost. So, maybe next time you're looking at your tattoo and you're thinking how much better all us white guys are than everyone else, you should think about that. 'Cause between you and me, if I'd been alone in that O.R., you'd probably be dead right now. And, uh, since we're sharing belief systems, I believe if you were dead, the world would be a better place.
[to Derek] I don't want you to date other people. I may not be enough for you, but I'm trying here so I don't want you to date anybody but me. That's it. Except I'm scared as hell to want you. But here I am wanting you anyway. And fear means I have something to lose, right? And I don't want to lose you.
You did a good job today. That was not easy. What you did was not easy, it was brave.
We killed him. The hospital, Sloan, us. We were not prepared.
Yeah... yeah, that happens sometimes.
That's... do you have any idea how backwards that is?
We help more than we hurt.
