Dr. Cox Quote #36

Quote from Dr. Cox in My Super Ego

Dr. Cox: Listen, I was thinking about what happened earlier and, anyway, here.
Carla: Wow, you finally dug down deep in your heart and came up with a muffin.
Dr. Cox: That's store-bought, sister. Blueberries in there the size of your fist.
Carla: I shouldn't have dragged you into it. You don't know Turk.
Dr. Cox: Actually, I met him today. We had a terrific chat.
[flashback to Turk emerging from a bathroom with Dr. Cox and a group of fellow doctors sitting in the corridor:]
Dr. Cox: Give the man a hand, that's just terrific work. You know darn well that felt good. Feeling better about yourself, aren't you?
[present:]
Dr. Cox: Real nice guy.
Carla: It's hard letting yourself be vulnerable with someone, you know?
Dr. Cox: Just eat the damn muffin, would you please?

Quote from Dr. Cox

Doug: Who's Carla?
Dr. Cox: I was talking to myself. Don't eavesdrop. If this kid doesn't leave I'm gonna kill him. [Doug starts to get up] Now, if you leave, I'll know you were eavesdropping and I'll go and kill you anyway. Stay. Good girl.

Quote from Dr. Cox

Dr. Cox: Carla. Wow. You look great!
Carla: You're not messing with me, right?
Dr. Cox: No, but I'd like to.
Carla: Turk bought me this dress out of the blue. I guess he knew I'd love it.
Dr. Cox: Oh. Look, Carla, back when I was an intern, I remember the pressure being so insane, that the only way I could get by was to race home and even though my wife was already asleep, I'd gently wake her, look her in the eyes, and then I'd passive-aggressively torture her until she packed a bag and went to her mom's for the week. Does that help?
Carla: Like a big hug with words.
Dr. Cox: Hey. The point is just because a guy has problems expressing himself, that doesn't mean he doesn't need... you. Oh, boy. Women so don't get me. It's not even funny. It's mind-boggling, quite frankly. The whole thing is stunning.
