Dr. Chen: You could say it Eli, it's okay. I'm sure it's nice for Him to hear.
Eli: (choked up) I have more to do? I have more to do!
Dr. Chen: (smiling) I think so, too.

Marci: I've tallied the partners' vote, and, well... Jordan, there's no easy way to say this.
Jordan: I think you just did, Marci.
Marci: But, for the record, it is the decision of the partnership that Jordan Weathersby be removed from his post as managing partner - effective immediately. Truly, Jordan, I'm sorry.
Jordan: I'm not. I can live with the partners decision. I hope they can.
(an earthquake interrupts the meeting for 20-30 seconds, shattering windows and bringing down ceiling beams)
Jordan: Marci... I'd like a revote.

Jordan: Ms. Klein's problem with Mr. Stone isn't that he is eccentric, it's that he applies his considerable talents to underdogs and individuals, instead of conglomerates and CEOs. He reminds us that in business there is still room for humanity, that capitalism without mercy is tantamount to evil--he reminds us of the best parts of ourselves. Yes, I have protected Eli Stone, because I believe this firm needs Eli Stone; I believe that every firm, every company, everyone...needs an Eli Stone. And by your vote you'll say whether or not you agree. If you don't, then this place has become something I don't want my name on anyway.

Season 1 Episode 10: "Heartbeat"

Nate: (to Eli) Don't say it. You even start to say "I told you so" and I am violating my Hippocratic Oath on your jaw.

Maggie: Did you ask me to work on this case with you so you wouldn't have to work on it with Matt?
Taylor: If I answer "no," would that prevent you from ever uttering a word of this to Eli?

Eli: Patti, do you notice something strange about Maggie?
Patti: I don't notice anything other than strange about that girl.
 • Rating: Unrated

Maggie: I just want to thank you for asking me to join you on this case. I've mostly worked under men at the firm, Like Eli. But I've always thought that I'd really benefit from the experience of working besides an older woman. Not "older" as in "old," I meant older as in "seasoned."
Taylor: I'm beginning to understand why you eat lunch at your desk alone.

Eli: It's a welcome-back gift from your personal week. How was it?
