I miss the good old days. When life and death was decided by God instead of doctors.

TV show quotes
I miss the good old days. When life and death was decided by God instead of doctors.
Well, we'd be out of jobs.
[talking about her husband, Brian] He's all I have. Brian- He's all I've ever had. I was shy... before him. I was shy and... Brian sees me. He sees me and he knows me and he loves me. My whole life, I felt like there was this missing piece of me, like I didn't fit, and Brian... he's my missing piece, so before you say no to the surgery, consider... just consider what you're asking of me. You're asking me to make myself less whole, to lose a part of me. He's... my missing piece. My best friend is my missing piece.
[explaining a procedure to Jodie, the temp] Actually, the treatment is preformed on the whole body, adapted for skin sensitivity of each individual, so-
[scoffs] This place is bad enough without you trying to sell your magic beans to everyone. I mean, does she really look like she needs help? Does that body need... anything? I mean, does any body really need its fat pulverized into submission?
Violet, Violet, you know what you are? You are a... a judger. You're a judgy judger who has no right to judge until she tries it for herself.
I did what you asked because I had convinced myself that it was the right thing to do for Kirk. But the truth was, I was protecting the wrong person.
This isn't about protecting me.
No, I meant protecting me. I was protecting myself from your threat. And that's not the kind of doctor I am. That's not the kind of doctor that I want to be. You asked me if it was somebody I loved, what I would do, and... it would kill me, Charlie, but I wouldn't want to force someone to live a way that they couldn't live with, because that would be for me and not for them.
Do you think I'm old?
Tell me you did not sleep with that temp. [laughs] You slept with Jodie the temp.
Hey, it seemed like a good idea at the time.
Yeah, well, at least you're getting out there. Me? Two dates seems to be my limit.
The cop?
He didn't call after our last date, so I called him, left him a message, a horrifying, embarrassing message. Probably scared him off. Not that I care. You know, I'm glad to not be talking to him.
Well, at least he didn't tell you you were old. Although... she did say that I was great.
[When Kevin visits Addison at the work]
Hey, to what do I owe this surprise?
I've got this coming weekend off and I was thinking you, me, Cabo San Lucas, weekend away Pamia, very fancy, perfect clear blue waters. [shows Addison the tickets] We could get away... too much?
No... Yes... No... Yes... yes. No here's look here's the thing, we've been out a few times and um it's, it's been great I, I really like you...
Is this where you break up with me?
No-- No, it's just um-- I have these rules, while they're stupid rules really but, in the past when I don't have rules it didn't go so well... my my my point is that now that I have my rules I don't wanna break them you know.
Yeah... I have no idea what you're talking about. I wanna know but, um, rules?
Sex rules.
Rules about sex?
You know a hotel means a room, a room means a bed, a bed means...
You have sex rules.
I'm waiting.
Until marriage?
No, no, no, no, I just um, until it feels right, until I'm sure.
Okay, so we'll wait. I'm good with waiting. I'm happy with waiting.
Really?
No, but I can wait.
[Addison and Kevin lay naked together, eating noodles on the floor]
So if I lease the fourth floor, then Sam and Naomi hate me, but if I don't, the Practice may go under.
So you lease it right?
You make it sound easy.
I lead guys everyday, leader makes tough decisions, sometimes that means pissing of a friend for the good of the group.
I want people to stop being pissed off.
Well, you need to decide who you want to be, a good friend, or a good leader?
You're smart, I don't like that.
Yes, you do. [Addison smiles] You want me to eat noodles off your back?
Yes, please.
[to Charlotte] You're opening a practice here? What about Cooper?
This has nothing to do with him.
He's your boyfriend.
This is business and Cooper is personal.
It's not that simple.
Maybe not for you, but I am not a therapist. I don't have to talk about my feelings until everyone else's ears bleed.
You're living a lie, Daniel. You're cheating on two women and cheating ruins lives.
I'm not the one who ruined lives here today.
Cooper, the Internet dater, is in a healthy relationship and my too-good-to-be-true boyfriend thinks I'm a psychotic bunny boiler.
Naomi (to Addison): Where's the prodigal brother?
He's showing Kevin around, hopefully making nice. Apparently Archer didn't appreciate Kevin treating him like a criminal when they first met.
You mean when he broke in like a criminal?
Exactly.
A polite house guest would've called to say they weren't coming home.
Good thing I'm not polite.
Who knew that meaningless sex could be amazing?
You had meaningless sex? Congratulations.
Regular normal people are driven to murder every day. Right, love, love will do it every time. Twisted, sick, messed-up love.
Cooper, Charlotte King is still alive, right?
I don't know you very well, I certainly don't know you well enough to judge you for this. But you don't know Rene very well, yet you were quick to judge her.
[sighs] Well... was she raped?
Would it matter if she was? Would that make it okay? Does that make her more or less worthy? We don't get to know why. That is her business, that's her choice, Dell. That woman agonized over a difficult choice, made it and came in here. I guarantee you she was already worried about people out there judging her, only to have you make her feel ashamed. But we are medical professionals, it is part of our job to support her once she was made the hardest choice imaginable.
