Grey's Anatomy
Thursdays 9:00 PM on ABCMiranda Bailey Quotes
[to Derek] "Huh. Well if this turns into an “either or,†you pick the person you love. End of story. Look, all of this means nothing if you’re alone."
IZZIE: "I have an 11-year old daughter, and she needs a bone marrow transplant. I'm potentially a good match. Please don't tell anyone, please. This isn't a chapter in my history I want everyone to know about."
MIRANDA: "I understand."
MIRANDA: "What happens when the happy mother in there wakes up after surgery and her son isn't there to greet her? What then? How are you gonna explain that, O'Malley?"
GEORGE: "If she wakes up after surgery because my lie helped save her life, I'm okay with that, Dr. Bailey."
GEORGE: "He's lost. Or... or... "
MIRANDA: "He's in the water."
GEORGE: [silent]
MIRANDA: "So when she wakes up, I get to inform her that she is not going to die... she's just going to want to die."
GEORGE: "I'm sorry, I can... keep looking."
MIRANDA: "Yeah, you do that."
MIRANDA: "Derek! Derek! How long has she been down?"
DEREK: "I don't know. She's alive. She's alive..."
MIRANDA: "What do we got?"
PARAMEDIC: "Jane Doe. She's hypothermic and dropping."
DEREK: "She's not Jane Doe. It's Meredith Grey. It's Meredith!"
ALEX: "Where are we going?"
MIRANDA: "We’ll know when we get there."
IZZIE: "What kind of situation? Fire? Flood? Volcano? Because I’m not really dressed for a volcano."
MIRANDA: "Stevens!"
IZZIE: "Sorry, that was inappropriate. Sorry."
SYDNEY: "Chief Resident. Yeah, for next year. The one fifth year resident that rules all residents. Oh, okay, she's cute. She's acting like she didn't know about it. Cute."
MIRANDA: "I'm not cute."
SYDNEY: "I'm onto you. I'm a competitor. Grrr!"
MIRANDA: "I bite."
SYDNEY: "Oh! I'll just wait for you in the pit."
CALLIE: "This is weird. Weird. This is weird, right?"
MIRANDA: "I need more triage tags…"
CALLIE: "Working with someone I’m married to is weird. Here, I’m his boss and his wife. At work, I’m giving him orders, in bed... he’s giving me..."
MIRANDA: "Stop! Right there. I don’t need to know this. I’m tired, I’m busy. While I will concede that you and O’Malley have some challenges to overcome, I’m asking you to remember that this day is a marathon and my mind can only hold what it needs to know, your sex life cannot be held in my mind today. Ever! It cannot be in my mind ever! Never!"
CALLIE: "Whatever."
"Dr. Stevens, I swear on my life if I hear you say 'eight million dollars' one more time..."
MIRANDA: "These are your letters of support for my free clinic. Sign them."
PRESTON: "Why do you want this clinic so badly?"
DEREK: "You're a surgeon."
MIRANDA: "Because I need something more. I know you all have your messy love lives and your secrets and your silliness, but I want more. I need something to hold on to. I need a reason to believe that medicine can do more than stitch you up and send you away. I need to believe that medicine can not only save lives, but change lives! I need... I need... to believe in something the way I used to believe in you all. Sign the papers! Sign the papers."
MIRANDA: "You didn't think of maybe telling me this morning that you were planning to step down instead of sending me on this wild goose chase?"
RICHARD: "Dr. Bailey. You need those clowns to sign off on your proposal because one of them may be Chief of Surgery in a month. It's hard to imagine, for me more than anyone, but since you're not ready for the job, one of them has got to do it for the next few years."
MIRANDA: "Me?!"
RICHARD: "It's you that's going to be Chief eventually. That's who you are. But you're gonna have to get a new chair because you're too short. You have short legs. But someday you are going to be Chief of Surgery. I wasn't sending you on a wild goose chase. I was trying to get you in a habit of doing things without me."
