Episode Quotes
Meredith: (voiceover) My mother used to say that, for a surgeon, a day without death is a rare gift. Every day, we face death. Every day, we lose life. And every day, we're hoping for a stay of execution.

Izzie: About Rebecca.
Meredith: Me and my world-class neurosurgeon are going to use a brilliant cutting edge technique to save a life, so I don't have time for crazy. Work it out.
(pager goes off)
Izzie: Ooh a trauma!

Rose: You intimidate me a little. I mean you're not an intimidating person, but the legend of Meredith and Derek -- it's intimidating.
Meredith: There's no legend.
Rose: He's selling his land because of you. There's a legend.

Mark: I tried to change. Turn over a new leaf. But the leaf isn't turning!
Chief: You aren't ready to change. And that's okay.
