Derek: We'll see you soon Dr. Stevens.
Izzie: I hope so.
Bailey: Know so.
Izzie: Dr Bailey if something goes wrong...
Bailey: It wont.
Izzie: The scarf, I made it for you.
Derek: It's a beautiful night to save lives. Let's get started.

Derek: Meredith.
Meredith: What are you doing? You're gonna have to re-scrub.
Derek: I'm not ready.
Meredith: Yes you are.
Derek: I need to know that at least I have you, no matter what happens in there, i need to know. I need you to say yes. I need to know.
Meredith: I can't say yes. Not if agreeing to be with you forever will make it ok if Izzie dies. I can't say yes. I love you, and you can do this. You can do this. I know you can.

Richard: Ah, It's not a good time, he's still scrubbing in.
Meredith: I know, it's just, ah, he should wear this. It's his ferry boat scrub cap. He loves ferry boats.

Callie: I wished Izzie Stevens would die. I wished her dead every day, of every week, for I don't even know how long. I woke up every morning, wishing Izzie Stevens would die, and now... What kind of person wishes someone would die? What kind of doctor wishes, knowing how things happen. What kind of doctor wishes...
Arizona: Are you in here, right now, praying for Izzie to die?
Callie: No. I'm praying for her to live.

Meredith: Hey, How's Izzie?
George: I don't know.
Meredith: How's Izzie?
Cristina: Why?
Meredith: Have you been to see her?
Cristina: No I've been working with Swinder all day.
Alex: What?
Meredith: Have you been to see Izzie?
Alex: No, haven't you?

Richard: Did you talk to Izzie about this yet? Considering you two are basically conceiving a child together today, don't you think you should talk with her about this?
Alex: Look, you said she needed my contribution. Here's my contribution. Whatever.

Alex: Here's your cup. All filled up.
Richard: I'm eating here Karev.
Alex: It's fine, I washed my hands.

Forceps, free from the arachnoid, tacking sutures, pateus, suction. (takes deep breaths) Starting over.

Derek

Cristina: I haven't seen you all day.
Owen: What if I hadn't woken up? I can't even remember what happened. It's gone. I have no memory, no way to... I would never hurt you, ever. But I did. My hands just... like how could... how could my own two hands be capable... I can't do this. Cristina... I can't...We can't do this... we need to stop seeing each other.
Cristina: But you did wake up. Stop blaming yourself for something that is out of your control.
Owen: We have to stop seeing each other.
Cristina: Why?
Owen: I almost
Cristina: Almost what? I told you I know my limits. Let me decide what I can handle.

Alex: The Chief send you in here?
Meredith: Nope. I offered to come in. In case you needed to talk.
Alex: Hah, you think talking will help? You think a dixie cup full of my swimmers will make everything ok? It's crap. This is crap! You just can't go messing with peoples heads like that. Even if she freezes the embryo's do you think, you think we'll get a chance to use them? You think she'll still be here? YOU THINK SHE'LL SURVIVE ALL THIS? You think... I think...She told me... she told me she was seeing a ghost ok. And I'm so used to all the crazy chicks in my life, that I didn't even... I'm a doctor. A DOCTOR! And I didn't even think to... and now she's... this is wrong. This isn't how it's supposed to happen.
Meredith: I know.
Alex: It's crap!
Meredith: I know.
Alex: I hate this.
Meredith: I know.
Alex: This isn't... this isn't how we were supposed... this isn't how I wanted to do this. This isn't how Izzie and I were supposed to make a baby.

Alex: I said go away.
Meredith: You left the door unlocked. That's bold.

Owen: I came back in one piece. I have both arms, both legs. Lots of other guys came back with real injuries. The worst I have is a couple of night mares or freezing for a moment.
Derek: Is that what happened last night? You had a freezing moment? If you want, I can help.
Owen: Yeah, I'm not the one who needs help around here. I'm not the one who cut out half a woman's brain and ran off to hide. I'm not the one who half this hospital is talking about behind their backs. So maybe you should spend a little less time worrying about me, and you know just take a look in the mirror. Alright.

Grey's Anatomy Season 5 Quotes

[narrating] We all remember the bed time stories of our childhood. The shoe fit Cinderella, the frog was turned into a prince, sleeping beauty was awakened with a kiss. Once upon a time and then they lived happily ever after. Fairy tales. The stuff of dreams. the problem is, fairy tales don't come true. It's the other stories. The ones that start in dark and stormy nights and end in the unspeakable. The nightmares always seem to become the reality.
