Mondays 10:00 PM on A&EMary Kills People Quotes
Mary: Y'know, I don't think I'm a very good person.
Nicole: Why? Because you provide a service and people pay for it?
Mary: Because I like it. It's hard to explain but there's something about it. Being with them in their last moments when everything matters and doesn't matter.
Larissa: I barely even know [Mary]. I mean, I try to be friends with her but she's aloof. Like a cat. That's why it's weird that she lent me her car... but y'know people can surprise you.
Grandma: So can cats.
*knock, knock*
Des: I always thought Death knocked three times.
Mary: Guess you're safe. For now
Mary: Y'know, I've been thinking about Irene. If my family had the gene, I'd want to know.

Sonia: It's like Ecclesiastes 3, 11
Mary: Oh, I don't know that one.
Sonia: 'He has made everything beautiful in its time.' God has a plan and it's not our place to question it. We just have to trust in His wisdom.
Mary: Then there's your answer.

Coroner: Troy Dixon was in the late stages of a terminal disease. His wife confirmed that his breathing had been labored that day. And I concluded it was natural causes.

Annie: You know I've started carrying my passport around. Just in case.

Des: Yeah.
Irene: There is beauty in the inevitable.
Nora: Edward was a scientist. He always used to tell me 'Energy is not created or destroyed. It just is.' I believe every bit of him is still around. Just in a different form.
Mary: That's beautiful.
Nora: It's true
Des: Aging baby boomers are going to want to die in the same manner in which they lived - bourgeois comfort. Now, the Swiss they know that. That's why death tourism is such a massive business over there.
Mary: And?
Des: And we should be starting to buy up property, getting ready to go legit. I'm serious. I'm having an entrepreneurial seizure here. Let's be a start-up for shutting down. The spa you'll never want to leave. And you won't. If you're travelling the River Styx, why not take a yacht?
