I can't die right now. I've got way too many regrets.

Victor

[to his parents] You know, here's the thing. Usually dead people talk to me. I can't even get them to shut up half the time. Talk to me!

Charlie

Joel: What? What are you looking at me like that for?
Alex: You've been cheating on her?
Joel: Why would you assume that?
Alex: Because I know you, Joel.

[to Joel] It's your pattern. You take something really beautiful and you screw it up.

Alex

[to Maggie] Hey, can I tell you something? You remember that time I kissed you? I should've have done that.

Gavin

Melanda: I never imagined my last supper would be wrapped in plastic.
Nurse: At this point, I'm just happy I can still chew.

Alex: We were living together and that still wasn't enough for you to make an actual commitment.
Joel: Hey, hey, hey, you were the one who walked out on me.
Alex: Because you cheated on me. You wanted out and you didn't have the guts so you walked.
Joel: Great, so you dodged a bullet.
Alex: No, I didn't. You broke my heart.

This is how it happens. You leave it all behind. Everything you love. Everything you know. You belong to the hospital now. And all you can do is hope.

Charlie

[to Joel] Any time that something get serious with you, you run away. You live your life in fear. You think that you're this, this big, fearless cowboy, but the truth is, the truth is you will never take the risk. Ever.

Alex

Joel: It's gonna be weird, isn't it? I mean you and me. You didn't invite me to the wedding so presumably you're still in love with me.
Alex: Right. I totally forgot. I like to remember the poems you wrote me, the breakfast in bed, the nurses you were banging.
Joel: Okay, we can stop right there.

See doctors like tests. It's the unknown that scares them.

Charlie

Alex: Every body keeps tell me to..
Nurse: to go home?
Alex: Yeah. But I can't.
Nurse: Then don't. Your family's here.
Alex: So what am I supposed to do?
Nurse: Suit up. Put your scrubs on Dr. Reid. And get to work.
