Share this quote on facebook Mary: You have to be strong to survive in this city.

Share this quote on facebook Frank: Oh, I see. With all the poor people of this city who wanted only to live and vere viciously murdered, you have the nerve to sit here, wanting to die, and not go through with it? You make me sick!

Share this quote on facebook Frank: Saving someone's life is like falling in love. The best drug in the world. For days, sometimes weeks afterwards, you walk the streets, making infinite whatever you see. Once, for a few weeks, I couldn't feel the Earth - everything I touched became lighter. Horns played in my shoes. Flowers fell from my pockets. You wonder if you've become immortal, as if you've saved your own life as well. God has passed through you. Why deny it, that for a moment there - why deny that for a moment there, God was you?

Share this quote on facebook Frank: I realized that my training was useful in less than ten percent of the calls, and saving lives was rarer than that. After a while, I grew to understand that my role was less about saving lives than about bearing witness. I was a grief mop. It was enough that I simply turned up.

Share this quote on facebook Dr. Hazmat: I thought you said this guy was dead.

Share this quote on facebook Dr. Hazmat: I'm going to have to intubate because the kid's mother won't sign the Do Not Resuscitate. Mercy killing doesn't translate well in Spanish.

Share this quote on facebook Tom: Frank, what do you know? It's you and me again tonight. The rough riders, tearing up the streets, just like old times. This old bus is a warrior, Frank. I have tried to kill her, but she will not die. I have a great respect for that.
