Izzie: This is absurd.
George: Hey...
Izzie: You shouldn't be sleeping in the On-Call room.

Meredith: Does that make me sad and weak and pathetic?
Cristina : Mmm... a little.
Meredith: What do I do?
Cristina: I don´t know.

Lexie: Hey, what are you doing tonight?
Alex: As in...
Lexie: What are you doing... tonight.
Alex: Look, uh, I’m not a nice guy. I don’t date. I don’t call the next day. I’m not looking for a relationship cause I’m never good at 'em. And honestly I’m kinda hung up on somebody else. So... the only thing you’re ever going to get from me is sex... that’s it. And that’s never usually enough for girls like you.

It goes away. The feeling. That feeling that you have right now... today... that feeling like you can do anything. That clarity... It goes away. And you go right back to being the coward who can’t tell the person you love how you feel.

Meredith

There’s a clarity thing when you cross over the edge. There’s a moment when everything just melts away and you’re fearless.

Meredith: Remember when I was dead? Before I went in that water everything was so ... complicated. Hard. and then you pulled me out of the water ... and I came back to life. for a moment everything was so clear. As if the water had washed everything clean. Do you remember that?
Derek: I do.
Meredith: Me too.

Meredith: I drowned. I was sinking. I died. And you know what I realized? I realized how stupid all of my issues are.
Cristina: I’m waiting for how this applied to me.
Meredith: It doesn’t.
Cristina: Of course not.
Meredith: Well that man fell, and all he wanted was one last chance to tell sally how he felt about her. And I GOT one last chance. I got my chance. And what have I done with it?

Cristina: You will marry... general surgery. Or, you know, okay, perhaps neuro. But you, you are nowhere near hardcore enough to commit to cardio.
Izzie: So you are telling me to... stop flirting with your husband. Haha, I get it. That’s cute. But if you’re going to ask me a favor... insulting my personal life is probably not a great tactic.
Cristina: No, no, wait, I am not talking about your sex life. I could not care less about your sex life. It’s a skydiver. Izzie. A skydiver.
Izzie: Oh yeah, sounds real cool. Enjoy.

Meredith: I can’t sleep. I can’t sleep without the dreaming.
Cristina: And the panic attacks
Meredith: One, one panic attack. What’s wrong with me?
Cristina: As far as a I can tell, severe abandonment issues.
Meredith: That’s crap. Psych is crap. Issues.
Cristina: It’s in the book. The book said it not me. Have you consider maybe you and Derek should stop having break-up sex? Okay ...

Cristina: Okay, what are your other symptoms?
Meredith: Okay..there’s the father thing. The mother thing. The sister thing... mmm ... the dying and coming back to life thing.
Cristina: You have too many things.

The more available he gets, the more I pull away.

Meredith

(to Alex, after Meredith walks in on them) Alex, please tell me you don't live with Meredith Grey.

Grey's Anatomy Season 4 Quotes

Everyday is my mothers birthday. My mother was born in March. He lied. He's a liar. And I'm glad. Really, I'm glad that you found him charming. I'm sure he was delightful. He's a blast after five drinks, not so much after nine though; he gets a little weepy and mean. He's a drunk, Meredith. He probably came in and told you how wonderful you are. How sad he is he doesn't get to spend more time with you. You know, yesterday he told me I was his favorite daughter. The day before, I was an ungrateful bitch. The week before, he wrote me a check for $20,000 because he said I deserved everything life had to offer, because he was so proud of me, a lifetime's worth of proud. So thank you for letting me know that I need to keep a better eye on him. Thanks.

Meredith: I will take the ER and your interns.
Cristina: Are you sure?
Meredith: Take the surgery. Makes you feel better and you start to regain strength. [leaves]
Alex: I saw the whole thing, Yang. You can stop pretending.
Cristina: Oh I'm not pretending. I'm sad. I'm very sad. Me so sad!
Alex: Yes, you tried.
Cristina: Hey, forget it. Sad is mine. Go, find your own pretend-emotion.
