Helen: You are dying Max.
Max: This may be one of the last things I do.

Helen: Thank you.
Iggy: For what?
Helen: Being you.

Bloom: Back?
Reynolds: Yeah, you're back, aren't you?
Bloom: I was actually thinking about asking Max to extend my leave.

Lady: Is this the hill you want to die on?
Max: Despite all appearances, I am not dying any time soon.

If I'm not there for my patients when they need me the most, what am I doing here?

Iggy

I gotta hand it to you, boss. You have outdone yourself this time.

Dora

Helen: Have you ever hugged or touched a patient without invitation?
Iggy: Yes.
Helen: And you understand that that is outside the bounds of a normal, therapeutic relationship?
Iggy: Yes.

Iggy: I have always tried to give the best care possible.
Helen: Your intentions aren't in question.
Iggy: Oh. Good.
Helen: Your methods are.

I just didn't think that feeling this good would feel this bad.

Max

Can we start tonight? I want to keep fighting. Ending be damned.

Max

DDC is the equivalent of napalming your internal organs.

Virginia

Helen: Hey.
Max: I know what you're going to say.
Helen: I like your hat.

New Amsterdam Season 1 Quotes

My sister Luna and I were born here in New Amsterdam, and eight years later, Luna died here. Hospital-acquired infection. Entirely preventable.

Max

Max: Unlike the previous medical director, I actually expect you to practice medicine at this hospital because I don't know, that's your job.
Helen: You're funny.
Max: You said that.
Helen: I'll tell you what, I'll continue giving speeches all over the world because you can't afford the type of publicity I give this hospital. And I'll continue my on-air appearances with Ellen, Oprah, and anyone else powerful enough to go by one name because someone has to remind New York that even though New Amsterdam is an underfunded public hospital, we can still go toe-to-toe with the privates from basic care to state of the art procedures. I will be back next week with lunch at the Tavern. My treat.
