[to Cristina] "You do enjoy crossing the line, don't you?"

CRISTINA

GEORGE: "Uh... Cristina? Do you... do you... does Meredith think I'm gay?"
CRISTINA: "Are you?"
GEORGE: "No."
CRISTINA: "Really?"
GEORGE: "I'm not gay!"

DEREK: "You make out with patients now?"
MEREDITH: "What, are you jealous?"
DEREK: "I don't get jealous."
MEREDITH: "We had sex. Once."
DEREK: "And we kissed in an elevator."
MEREDITH: "And we kissed in an elevator. Once."
DEREK: "No, seriously. Go out with me."
MEREDITH: "No."
DEREK: "You know, I almost died today. Yeah, I came like this close. How would you feel if I died and you didn't get a chance to go out with me?"
MEREDITH: "Get over yourself already."
DEREK: "C’mon!"
MEREDITH: "It’s the chase, isn't it?"
DEREK: "What?"
MEREDITH: "The thrill of the chase. I've been wondering to myself, why are you so hell-bent on getting me to go out with you? You know you're my boss. You know it’s against the rules. You know I keep saying no. It’s the chase."
DEREK: "Well... its fun isn't it?"
MEREDITH: "You see! This is a game to you, but not to me. Because, unlike you, I still have something to prove."

VIPER: [kisses Meredith] "That was for good luck. Don't worry darling. You'll see me again."
MEREDITH: "For your sake, I hope not!"

"It's like candy, but with blood, which is so much better."

CRISTINA

MEREDITH: "Well, you realize you're leaving against medical advice and I strongly urge you to stay."
VIPER: "The frat guy said I could go."
MEREDITH: The frat guy is an ass. You at least have to sign an AMA form."
VIPER: "Fine, I will do anything you want me to."
MEREDITH: "What is with you guys and your need to dirty everything up?"
VIPER: "I don't know. Maybe it’s the testosterone, eh?"
MEREDITH: "Maybe, you might want to see a doctor about that too."

MEREDITH: "Look, you really have to let me take you for some tests. Run a CT. You could have internal bleeding."
VIPER: "No, thank you, I’ve got a race to get back to."
MEREDITH: "Why? You can't win now anyway."
VIPER: "There’s a party at the finish line. Want to meet me there?"
MEREDITH: [smiles] "One test. A CT. I'll have you out of here in an hour."
VIPER: "Can't do it, gotta go!"

VIPER: "You've got a nice touch. And by the way, you are good looking, babe."
MEREDITH: "Seriously, do you actually think you have a shot here?"
VIPER: "I actually think I have a shot anywhere."

"Liver cancer will kill me, smoking will just speed up the process."

PATIENT

"Fools on bikes killing themselves. Natural selection is what it is."

MIRANDA

MEREDITH: [narrating] "We live our lives on the surgical unit. Seven days a week, 14 hours a day, we're together more than we're apart. After a while, the ways of residency becomes the ways of life. Number one: Always keep score. Number two: Do whatever you can to outsmart the other guy. Number three: Don't make friends with the enemy. Oh, yeah, Number four: Everything, everything is a competition. Whoever said winning wasn't everything... Never held a scalpel."

MEREDITH: [talking about her new roommates] "They're just... everywhere, all the time. Izzie's all perky and George does the thing where he's helpful and considerate. They share food, they say things, they move things, and they breathe. They're, like, happy."
CRISTINA: "Kick 'em out."
MEREDITH: "I can't kick them out, they just moved in. I asked them to move in."
CRISTINA: "Okay, so what, you're just going to repress everything in some deep, dark, twisted place until one day you snap and you kill them?"
MEREDITH: "Yep."
CRISTINA: "This is why we are friends."
