Dr. Juliet Burke quotes from Lost

Juliet Burke

It doesn't matter who we were. It only matters who we are.

Juliet

I'm a fertility doctor. I'm not used to death.

Juliet Burke

[to Richard] Whatever you think I am, I'm not. I'm not a leader, Mr. Alpert. I'm a mess.

Juliet Burke

[to Kate] They left me behind too, they gassed me! I know that you don't care, but the people I spent the last three years of my life with, they just left me! I thought that maybe, maybe if I could make you think that we were in it together. Maybe I wouldn't get left behind again.

Juliet Burke

I'm curious, Sayid... How long was it before you told everyone on that beach exactly how many people you've tortured in your life? Do they know about Basra? And I'm sure the first thing you did when you got here, James, was to gather everyone in a circle and tell them about the man you shot in cold blood the night before you got on the plane. So why don't we just skip the part where you two pretend to be righteous? I'm taking that medication back to Claire and you're gonna let me. Because, if she doesn't get it, she's gonna die. And the last thing that either of you need right now is more blood on your hands.

Juliet Burke

[to Sun] Once upon a time, I told women that they were pregnant and their faces, it was the best news they ever got in their entire life. Then I came here. I've lost, nine, patients in the last three years. I'm helping you because I want to tell you that you and your husband got pregnant before you came here. I'm helping you because I wanna give good news again.

[On Stephen King's Carrie] It's not even literature, it's popcorn

And why isn't it literature, Adam, I'm dying to know?

There's no metaphor. It's by-the-number religious hokem-pokem.

No metaphor?

It's science fiction. Now I know why Ben isn't here.

Juliet

Excuse me?

I know the host picks the book but seriously, Julie, he wouldn't read this in the damn bathroom.

Juliet

Well, Adam, I am the host and I do pick the book, and this is my favorite book. So I am absolutely thrilled that you can't stand it.

Juliet

Silly me for sinking so low as to select something that Ben wouldn't like. Here I am thinking that free will still actually exists on this...

Juliet

What do you do, Jack? What's your profession?

Jack

I'm a repo man. You know, when people don't pay their bills I go into the bank and collect their possessions. I'm a people person so I really love it.

Juliet

Are you married?

Jack

No. I never saw the point. What about you? What's your job, besides making sandwiches?

Juliet

Oh, I didn't make it. I just put the toothpicks in.

Jack Shephard

So, you're a doctor, huh?

Juliet Burke

No, I'm a repo woman.

Juliet

It doesn't work that way over here Jack, we make decisions together.

Jack

Really? Because when I was holding that broken plate to your neck, he seemed happy to just let you die. It seemed like he made that decision alone.

Juliet Burke

[about Ben] We make decisions together.

Jack Shephard

Really? Because when I was holding that broken plate at your neck he seemed happy to just let you die. I mean, it felt like he made that decision on his own.

Juliet Burke

You don't know what you're talking about. I don't answer to him.

Ben Linus

Juliet, I need you.

Jack

[After explaining what the surgery for Ben's cancer will entail] You need to be in surgery yesterday.

Ben

Alright then, whatever you need, it's yours. I'm ready.

Jack

No, I think you misunderstood me. I didn't say I was gonna do it. I just wanted you to understand how you're gonna die.[Ben and Juliet are astonished] You think I believe you people? You think I trust you? You think I'm just going to do the surgery and then I'm just gonna hope that you let me go?!

Juliet

Jack!

Jack

NO, DON'T!

Ben

Well Jack, I'm very disappointed in your decision.

Jack

Well Ben, at least you won't have to be disappointed for very long.

Tom

Ben's awake...

Juliet

How?

Tom

Shephard said he's a spinal surgeon, not an anesthesiologist.

Oh, I fell asleep.

Juliet Burke

With candles burning -- it's real safe.

Juliet

I hear you only liked them grilled.

Jack

Let me see.

Juliet

Jack...

Jack

They marked you? Let me see.

Jack

If you would break off that aloe plant there...

Juliet

It's ok, Jack.

Jack

Please, please do it.

Juliet

Why did you help me?

Jack

He told you that you could leave the island. He told me the same thing. We're going to make sure he keeps his promise.

Juliet

We're? How are we going to do that?

Jack

Together.
