Dr. Cox Quote #71
Quote from Dr. Cox in My Balancing Act
Dr. Cox: Here's the deal. I have been coerced by the forces of evil into conducting rounds this morning.
[flashback:]
Dr. Kelso: Why do you have to do rounds? Because I'm sleepy. How's that?
[present:]
Dr. Cox: So, to make this a more palatable experience for moi, I am not going to call you by your names. Instead, I'll be referring to you by whatever distinguishing physical characteristic occurs to me. Okay, you, Chicken Beak. What causes pneumonia presenting with diarrhea?
Man: Legionella.
Dr. Cox: Nice job. It turns out your mind's just as sharp as your nose.

Quote from Janitor
J.D.: [v.o.] You're only 80 minutes late. She'll still be here. Please be here. Come on, Alex. Please be here.
[As J.D. looks around the restaurant, he catches the gaze of the Janitor who is dining at a table]
Janitor: You gotta be kidding me! There's a waste of a gift certificate. Cancel the cobbler!
Quote from Dr. Cox
Dr. Cox: Newbie, do you happen to know what a zebra is?
J.D.: That patient just mocked me.
Dr. Cox: It's a diagnosis of a ridiculously obscure disease when it's much more likely that the patient has a common illness presenting with uncommon symptoms. In other words, if you hear hoof beats, you just go ahead and think horsies, not zebras. Mm-kay, Mr. Silly Bear?
Quote from Dr. Cox
J.D.: Well, you know that means a lot coming from you, Mr. Right-here-with-me two-hours-after-his-shift- and-last-Monday-night-too guy.
Dr. Cox: What?
J.D.: You heard me.
Dr. Cox: Newbie, what're you saying? That you want to be like me? Do you understand that I just barely want to be like me?
