ALEX: "My head hurts."
CRISTINA: "Maybe it's a tumor."
ALEX: "You wish I had a tumor."
CRISTINA: "I'd rip your face off if it meant I got to scrub in."

MIRANDA: "So, doctors, why aren't we attempting to reattach the severed penis?"
CRISTINA: "Because teeth don't slice, they tear. If she had wanted to chop it off, things might be different. Plus, the digestive juices didn't leave much of the flesh to work with."
MIRANDA: "So, how do we proceed?"
CRISTINA: "Sew him up... minus a large part of the family jewels."
MIRANDA: "The outlook?"
MEREDITH: "He'll be urinating out of bag for a very long time."
CRISTINA: "Not to mention he'll never be able to have sex again."
MEREDITH: [sarcastically] "Oh, too bad."
CRISTINA: "A shame."
MIRANDA: "Let's all take a moment to grieve."

IZZIE: "I wouldn't have called you, but I can't get hold of a translator. Can you just ask her what's wrong?"
CRISTINA: "No."
IZZIE: "Why not?"
CRISTINA: "I grew up in Beverly Hills. The only Chinese I know is from a Mr. Chow's menu. Besides, I'm Korean."

GEORGE: "You know what you need?"
MEREDITH: "No... It’s sick and twisted. We said last time was the last time."
GEORGE: "Nancy Reagan lied. You can't just say no. C’mon."
MEREDITH: "You know what would happen if anyone knew?"
GEORGE: "I'm doing it. You can come with me or you can stay here and be miserable."

GEORGE: [looking at babies] "Look at you! You’re so cute with your little yellow hat!"
MEREDITH: [smiles] "You are such a woman."

MEREDITH: "We have... custody of a penis?"
RICHARD: "Yes. Until the cops come for it."
MEREDITH: "Okay, well, what am I supposed to do with the penis?"

CRISTINA: "What are you doing?"
MEREDITH: "Oh, you know. Just sitting here with my penis."

MIRANDA: [to Cristina] "An intern was reassigned, so he's mine now. Have him shadow you for the day. Show him how I do things."
ALEX: "Alex Karev, nice to meet you."
CRISTINA: "Ah, the pig who called Meredith a nurse. I hate you on principle."
ALEX: "And you're the pushy, overbearing kiss ass. I hate you too."
CRISTINA: "Well, this should be fun then."

CRISTINA: [to George] "Bambi, don't say another word until after the hunter shoots your mother."
GEORGE: "I don't like you."

PRESTON: "What the... what the hell is this? Does anybody know what this is?"
MEREDITH: "Oh my God."
PRESTON: [holds body part] "What is it, Grey?"
MEREDITH: "She bit it off-"
PRESTON: "What is it? Spit it out, Grey."
MEREDITH: "That's his.. penis."

[narrating] "It's all about lines. The finish line at the end of residency, waiting in line for a chance at the operating table, and then there’s the most important line, the line separating you from the people you work with. It doesn’t help to get too familiar to make friends. You need boundaries, between you and the rest of the world. Other people are far too messy. It’s all about lines... drawing lines in the sand and praying like hell no one crosses them."

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."
