Quote from Elliot in My Full Moon
Turk: Look at that. They have no idea what's ahead of them. Elliot: You know, I never answered your question earlier about whether you and I would always be doctors. You will. You have this amazing ability to find joy in everything you do. Turk: Thank you. Elliot: Whether it's, like, an operation you've done a hundred times, or even teaching. [flashback:] Turk: Alright, the trick to this is to get the needle right between the ribs, okay? Watch. Like so. Nice. You wanna get it for me? [back:] Elliot: But as for me, I know you think it was a big victory figuring out what was wrong with Robyn. But those moments are kind of like eating a piece of chocolate. I enjoy the satisfaction for about ten seconds and then it's gone. See, the thing that sticks with me is the anguish on a patient's face when I give them crappy news. I hold on to that forever. You're a surgeon, you occasionally get to fix people. I figure out what's wrong with someone and then most of the time I can't do anything about it. I just wish them luck dealing with it or try to keep them alive for a while longer. So you wanna know if I'll always be a doctor? I'd have to say, I don't know. I'm a doctor now, I will be tomorrow. But I can't tell you that if I'm ever lucky enough to get married, to have some kids, to maybe not need the money, I think I'd walk out of here and never look back.
