[narrating] "At some point, you have to make a decision. Boundaries don't keep other people out, they fence you in. Life is messy, that's how we're made. So you can waste your life drawing lines or you can live your life crossing them. But there are some lines that are way too dangerous to cross. Here's what I know. If you're willing to throw caution to the wind and take a chance, the view from the other side... is spectacular."

MEREDITH

DEREK: "So, it’s intense. This thing I have. For ferry boats, I mean."
MEREDITH: "I am so taking the stairs this time."
DEREK: "No self control. It’s sad. Really."

MEREDITH: "Alright... George and Izzie, you can move into the house."
IZZIE: "Yes!"
GEORGE: "I can't believe you caved!"
MEREDITH: "I can't believe I caved."
CRISTINA: "I blame the babies. They make you toxic."

[to rapist patient] "I have good news and bad news. The good news is that Dr. Bailey managed to stop the bleeding. The bad news is that we gave your penis to the cops. Have a nice life."

DEREK

PRESTON: "I think you should know that Richard promised Chief to both of us... but you already knew that."
DEREK: "Yeah, well, keep your friends close and your enemies closer."
PRESTON: "No. You're not the enemy, you're just the competition."

DEREK: "So we're kissing but we're not dating?"
MEREDITH: "I knew this was going to come up."
DEREK: "Don't get me wrong, I like the kissing. I'm all for the kissing. More kissing, I say!"
MEREDITH: "I have no idea what that was about."
DEREK: "Is it going to happen again? Let me know next time. I'll bring breath mints. Put a condom in my wallet."
MEREDITH: "Shut up. Now."

GEORGE: "I feel like the angel of death."
CRISTINA: "Bambi, quit whining. Ninety-nine percent of the people in the code team are seriously dead or dying before you even get there."
GEORGE: "Why didn't you tell me before when I was going on and on about how great it would be?"
CRISTINA: "Because you're George, and I'm Cristina."

"I need a drink, a man, or a massage. Or a drunken massage by a man."

CRISTINA

PRESTON: "Anything you say in the next 30 seconds is free, starting right now."
MIRANDA: "I think you’re cocky. Arrogant. Bossy and pushy. You also have a God complex and don’t think of anybody but your damn self."
PRESTON: "But, I-"
MIRANDA: "Wait. I still have 23 seconds and I’m not done."

CRISTINA: "You know, it's like there's a wall. The attendings and the residents are over there being surgeons, and we're over here being-"
MEREDITH: "Suturing, code-running, lab-delivering penis minders."
ALEX: "I hate being an intern."

"Who here feels like they have no idea what they're doing?"

GEORGE

MEREDITH: "So anyway, the crap crime scene guy can't get out here 'til tomorrow, so I get to spend the night with my penis!" [pauses] "Alex, don’t say it."
ALEX: "It was too easy anyway."

Grey's Anatomy Season 1 Episode 2 Quotes

DEREK: "Seattle has ferryboats?"
MEREDITH: "Yes."
DEREK: "I didn’t know that. I've been living here six weeks, and had no idea there were ferryboats."
MEREDITH: "Seattle is surrounded by water on three sides."
DEREK: "Hence the ferryboats. Now I have to like it here. I wasn’t planning on liking it here, since I'm from New York, and am genetically engineered to dislike everywhere except Manhattan. But I do have a thing for ferryboats."
MEREDITH: "I'm not going out with you."
DEREK: "Did I ask if you'll go with me? Do you want to go out with me?"
MEREDITH: "I'm not dating you and I'm definitely not sleeping with you again. You're my boss."
DEREK: "No, I'm your boss' boss."
MEREDITH: "You're my teacher and my teacher's teacher. And my teacher!"
DEREK: "I'm your sister. I'm your daughter."
MEREDITH: "You're sexually harassing me."
DEREK: "I'm just riding in an elevator."
MEREDITH: "Look, I'm drawing a line. The line is drawn. Thereis now a big line."
DEREK: "So this line... is it imaginary or do I need to get you a marker?"

"Every intern wants to perform their first surgery. That's not your job. Do you know what your job is? To make your resident happy. Do I look happy? No! Why? Because my interns are whiney. You know what will make me look happy? Having the code team staffed, having the trauma pages answered, having the weekend labs delivered and having someone down in the pit doing the sutures. No one holds a scalpel until I'm so happy I'm Mary Freaking Poppins."
