[supposedly telling Martha what death is like] There was a light, a tiny speck of light and I was rushing towards it, like down a corridor, and it got brighter, and brighter, then suddenly there were these gates... these big, pearly gates and there was this old geezer and he said, "You've been a very naughty boy!"
Only in suffering do we realize beauty.
Yeah, yeah. Who said that?
Proust.
You've read Proust?
Yeah. [pause] Well, no. We dated for a while. He was really immature.
[talking to a child cancer patient] Jamie, you're scared, of course you are, the last lot of chemo didn't work and you can't bear the thought of going through all that pain again, I understand that mate, I really do. But let me tell you, that not everyone dies from this disease. And the ones with the best chance of making it are the ones who believe they can beat death. And sometimes, just sometimes, you can. So watch and learn, Jamie Burton.
Watch what?
Watch me beat Death.
[finally picking the lock on a door] Come on!
Okay, go, come on, Jamie, [to Tosh] take him!
Owen? I am not leaving you to face that thing on your own!
I know what to do.
We don't know what we're dealing with!
Tosh... [kisses Tosh] you're so going to hate me for this. [uses the lock-picking device to shut himself in the lobby]
Owen, no, open the door! What the hell are you doing? Owen!
[to Death] How long!? How long can you last here with only twelve victims? There's nothing here for you! Owen Harper's soul has left the building! There's nobody here but us dead men. [starts fighting Death to the protestations of his team] What else have you got? What else do you do to the dead? Is that all you've got? Is it?!? [Death eventually fades away in a white light]
...But then, forever's overrated.
Not from where I'm sitting.
If you've got forever, you don't notice the flecks in the concrete, or bother to touch the bricks. You send your friends into danger, knowing the stakes aren't the same for you, that you might get them killed — while you walk away unscathed.
