12pm - 29th July 2008

Dr. Derek Shepherd: So, who's next, Alex? He likes to sleep around... you two have that in common.
Dr. Meredith Grey: You don't get to call me a whore! When I met you, I thought I had met the person I would spend then rest of my life with. I was done. So all the boys, and all the bars, and all the obvious daddy issues... who cared? Because I was done. You left me! You chose Addison! I'm all glued back together now. I make no apologies for how I chose to repair what you broke. You don't get to call me a whore!

Christina Yang: You are eight feet tall. Your boobs are perfect. Your hair is down to there. If I was you I would just walk around naked all the time. I wouldn't have a job, I wouldn't have any skills, I wouldn't even know how to read. I would just be... naked.
Isobel "Izzie" Stevens: It's makeup. It's retouching.
Christina Yang: You get that we hate you, right?
*

Christina : Ow. Ow. Ow.
Happy Resident : Am I hurting you?
Christina : No you're touching me.

Dr. Meredith Grey: [about her new roommates] They're everywhere. All the time. Izzie's all perky and George does this where he's helpful and considerate. They share food, and they say things, and they move things, and they breathe. Ugh, they're, like, happy
Dr. Cristina Yang: Kick them out.
Dr. Meredith Grey: I can't kick them out, they just moved in. I asked them to move in.
Dr. Cristina Yang: So what, you're just going to repress everything in some deep, dark, twisted place until one day you snap and you kill them?

Dr. Meredith Grey: Okay, here it is, your choice... it's simple, her or me, and I'm sure she is really great. But Derek, I love you, in a really, really big pretend to like your taste in music, let you eat the last piece of cheesecake, hold a radio over my head outside your window, unfortunate way that makes me hate you, love you. So pick me, choose me, love me.

Jane Burke: Do you know when to walk away? Do you know when not to take less than you deserve?

Dr. Meredith Grey: At the end of the day, when it comes down to it, all we really want is to be close to somebody. So this thing, where we all keep our distance and pretend not to care about each other, is usually a load of bull. So we pick and choose who we want to remain close to, and once we've chosen those people, we tend to stick close by. No matter how much we hurt them, the people that are still with you at the end of the day - those are the ones worth keeping. And sure, sometimes close can be too close. But sometimes, that invasion of personal space, it can be exactly what you need.


AMEN

He makes the world go round. He spins it along the axis, makes me dizzy, makes me laugh, makes me stop and feel sick...but most of the time, he makes me want this ride to never ever end.

She is sunshine, she's bright, yellow, makes me red and my skin peel at times...but that's okay because I know that even when she's not around she's there lurking behind the dark stormy clouds.

That's why I get scared you know, that one day the world might stand still and the sun might not shine.

Pathetic Fallacy Anyone????

I sat in the balcony trying to concentrate on Adrienne Rich's poem, it kept growing windier and colder until the last traces of sunshine vanished.



Because that is what we do. Search for the silver lining in the same damn cloud that hides are north star.

"The Meek Shall Inherit the Earth"

I know it. We shall and we will and we'll wait and we'll laugh. Oh yes! At You, and You..and YOU!

I sit by my window and dream of flying away.
If not with wings, then by an airplane...
