Eli Stone Season 1 Quotes
Dr. Chen: You could let go. No one blames you, Eli. No one's angry. They're sad and they'll hurt. They'll hurt for a long time but the world will go on without you, Eli. The world doesn't need Eli Stone unless...
Eli: Unless? I have...
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.
Eli: Are you God?
George Michael: Well, some men have said so.
If you do end up a vegetable, two words. Sponge. Bath.
Matt
Eli: You're afraid I'm going to die.
Maggie: No I'm not... I'm not. In fact, I would really, really prefer that you didn't.
Eli: I believe that God spoke to you. I just think that you heard him wrong. He sent you a doctor... he sent you a rabbi... and now he sent me.
David Green: A doctor, a rabbi and a lawyer... sounds like the start of a joke.
Dr. Chen: Dude, I solved your problem.
Eli: Sorry, you're going to have to tell me which one.
Matt: I take it from the look of surprise on your face that you're unaccustomed to dealing with men as capable as the Dowd. (Eli knocks) Funny, we were just talking about you.
Eli: Hey, do you have a second?
Taylor: Uhh, I've got sixty of them.
Eli: I was asking... the Dowd.
Patti: Eli, you draft your will yet?
Eli: I left you all my George Michael CDs. I figured that was appropriate.
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.
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.
Jordan
We don't know what's going to happen, Eli. That's why they call it the future.
Maggie
Eli: You have to admit, the whole engagement thing kind of came out of nowhere.
Maggie: No it didn't, it came out of Ohio.
