Grey's Anatomy
Thursdays 9:00 PM on ABCAlex Karev Quotes
ALEX: "We should be hearing from Dr. Burke any minute."
DR. HAHN: "That's what you said half an hour ago. Well, whether or not we hear from him, when we hit that hour mark, I'm going in to get my heart."
IZZIE: "Can you please... please, just get out? I want to be alone with Denny."
ALEX: "Izzie, that’s not Denny."
IZZIE: "Shut up."
ALEX: "Izz, its not Denny. The minute his heart stopped beating, he stopped being Denny. I know you love him... but he also loved you. And a guy that loves you like that, he doesn't want you to do this to yourself. Because its not Denny, Not any more."
IZZIE: "An hour ago he was proposing. And now… and now hes going to the morgue. Isn't that ridiculous? Isn't it the most ridiculous piece of crap you've ever..." [starts sobbing, Alex consoles her]
ALEX: "Hey, you look nice."
IZZIE: "Thanks, so do you. Hot date?"
ALEX: "Nah, this thing is cheesy. Wouldn't waste a decent chick on it. You headed in?"
IZZIE: "Yeah, I'm just gonna go see Denny first."
ALEX: "Oh. Okay."
[the cast, narrating]
MEREDITH: "Human beings need a lot of things to feel alive."
GEORGE: "Family"
CRISTINA: "Love"
IZZIE: "Sex"
DEREK: "But we only need one thing"
RICHARD: "To actually be alive."
CRISTINA: "We need a beating heart."
ADDISON: "When our heart is threatened"
ALEX: "We respond in one of two ways."
GEORGE: "We either run or-"
IZZIE: "We attack."
RICHARD: "There's a scientific term for this."
ALEX: "Fight..."
ADDISON: "...or flight."
MIRANDA: "It's instinct."
MEREDITH: "We can't control it."
IZZIE: "Or can we?"
[to Richard] "Let's say you were drafted to a team that wasn’t your first pick. You know, you don't like the players. You hate the way they play the game. You even think the quarterback is full of crap. The quarterback's a pain in the ass you don't owe a damn thing to. But, it's your team. You don't quit. You don't talk to the press. You don't bitch to the coach. You just... you go out there on Sunday and you make the blocks and you take the hits and you play to win. You show up and you suit up and you play, because it's your freaking team."
GEORGE: "Not to bother you, but-"
MIRANDA: "What? Alright, one of you better spit out the problem right now."
ALEX: "The problem is the colors and the balloons and the Under the Sea. No, it's Titanic. Hey ,lets go with Tears in Heaven. No, that’s too morbid. It should be pink, it should be red, it should be a freaking rainbow-"
GEORGE: "What he's saying is that we're very, very hopeful that you speak teenage girl."
MIRANDA: "Silver and white. It's mystical and magical without being over the top. Ever seen Fashion Week in New York? Lots of silver and white runways and backdrops. That’s because no matter what color the clothes are, they pop."
HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS: "They pop?"
MIRANDA: "They pop! O'Malley and Karev, get 500 balloons in silver and white. A hundred in black, shiny black, not the matte. Yang, stick with Camille, keep her happy, keep her spirits up. Grey, talk to Patricia, make sure we can rope off the second floor nurses' station and the waiting room!"
ALEX: [groaning, head in hands]
GEORGE: "Are you having a seizure?"
ALEX: "Will that get me out of here? Fine then, let's go with seizure. For the love of God, you people need to get a life!"
GEORGE: "Chief's niece. Chief's niece."
CAMILLE'S FRIEND: "It's okay, the hot ones are always mean, it's like a rule or something."
ALEX: [smiles]
IZZIE: [to Richard] "I cut the LVAT wire."
MEREDITH: "Actually, I cut the LVAT wire."
GEORGE: "No, I did. I'm the one who cut the wire." [pauses, elbows Christina]
CRISTINA: "Fine, I cut the LVAT wire."
ALEX: "I didn't do anything, I'm totally innocent."
MEREDITH: "Alex, do this, for Izzie."
ALEX: "I'm not guaranteeing anything."
ALEX: "Wow, Isobel Stevens has finally left the hospital. Does this mean her beloved heart patient finally kicked it?"
IZZIE: "I'm sorry, this section of the bar is for surgeons. We don't socialize with gynecologists."
IZZIE: "All I'm saying, George, is that if she needs to pee she can at least wear a bra. Or maybe wait until she's alone. And for the love of all things sanitary, could she just wash her hands? She's a surgeon!"
GEORGE: "You guys were blocking the sink. Anyways, I think you're exaggerating."
IZZIE: "She peed! Naked peeing! Ask Meredith, Meredith. Oh that's right, I forgot, you're not talking to her. If you were, she'd tell you that Calli crosses the line. So crossed the line. So freaking crossed." [looks at Alex]
ALEX: "Oh, we're still pretending that you're not seeing a patient, right?"
ADDISON: "Good work, Dr. Karev. The baby's going to live."
ALEX: [walks away] "Yeah... without a mother."
