The tragedy is...when you're absolutely the finest, the most skilled doctor there is, and you have to turn them over to people less skilled than you. So you're lucky. You're mother is lucky. Because there is no one anywhere better equipped to save her than you. You have the opportunity to do what I couldn't do with my own family. I envy you that.

Earlier, when you said you came here to learn from the best, and that afterwards, you decided to stay. You humbly left out the middle part -- you learned from the best, and then you became the best. I'm sorry I couldn't see that until now. You make me very proud.

Dr. Peter Hudson

I'm never going to be that guy with the white coat, you know? The office in the medical-arts building. You know, half the time when I tell people I'm a doctor, they don't even believe me. If I fail at this...if I can't do emergency medicine, I got no place else to go. I just got scared. I'm sorry.

You lost a child, Christa. That means that every child that comes through here is a version of that child. It's not gonna change. You need to learn how to deal with it.

Dr. Cole Guthrie: This is where medical students observe?
Dr. Mark Taylor: Yeah, and interns, sometimes E.M.T.s.
Dr. Cole Guthrie: Doesn't seem particularly sterile.
Dr. Mark Taylor: Well, neither is a taxicab, but many a baby have been born there.

Dr. Mario Savetti: You're enjoying this, aren't you?
Dr. Angus Leighton: Like a tornado loves a trailer park.

Life Lesson. When asked if you want to examine your patient some more, it's like being asked if you want a breath mint. The answer is always yes.

Jesse Salandar

We're not their friend, their family, or their shrink. We're their doctor. He gets confused.
