Carla Quote #83
Elliot: Paul and I are just different, OK?
Carla: Please, Elliot, this is not about Paul. This is about you. This is about you not being able to commit because that means saying goodbye to whatever unfulfilled fantasy of love you concocted after seeing too many Meg Ryan movies. But men don't come and make everything all better. They're only human. And you shouldn't punish him because you grew up so fast, you never learned how to let someone else take care of you. He's not your father, okay? He's not necessarily going to disappear at the first sign of trouble. And as scary as it is being truly vulnerable with another human being, what's even scarier is that deep down inside you know you picked this man, and if you run away, you'll run away from being the kind of person you always wanted to be.
Elliot: Carla, I just met the guy.

Quote from Dr. Cox
Dr. Kelso: Perry! Hi, how are you, et cetera? The wife and I just took out a new insurance policy and I need a physical.
Dr. Cox: Bob, the day I willingly cradle your dusty old twig and berries and get a whiff of your chronic halitosis while you turn and cough, is the day I'll be on the roof singing I Believe I Can Fly.
Dr. Kelso: Great stuff. See you about two-ish.
Quote from Dr. Cox
J.D.: Morning, Dr. Cox.
Dr. Cox: [v.o.] Gladys, Ginger, Tiffany, no. Cheryl, Betsy... Betsy. Ooh, that's new.
Dr. Cox: Betsy, good morning. Let's make with the chop-chop.
J.D.: You already used Betsy like six months ago.
Dr. Cox: I don't care.
Dr. Cox: [v.o.] Dammit!
Quote from Dr. Cox
Dr. Gross: I got very drunk last night and I decided that I'm not giving up on you. So, how'd you do with my counting exercise?
Dr. Cox: Honestly, I tried it once and I thought it was stupid.
Dr. Gross: That's it. We're done.
Dr. Cox: Whoa, whoa, whoa. You're dumping me?
Dr. Gross: I hope we can remain friends.
Dr. Cox: Oh, now, please don't take away the privilege of letting me pay you $200 an hour so I can drag my ass in here and watch you nod. God knows, the only other place I can get that on the planet is from my Brett Favre bobblehead doll.
Dr. Gross: Fine, you wanna know what I really think? Your problem isn't that you make bad choices. It's that you identify the good choice and then intentionally do the opposite. You see, behind this boorish bravado of yours is a paralyzing fear of letting anyone into your life. And it isn't because you weren't loved when you were a kid. It's because you're so egocentric that the love wasn't enough. So you pulled pigtails and you pushed the fat kids into the dirt so no one could ignore little Perry. Well, little Perry is now 40 years old and you're so invested in this neurotic, narcissistic notion of yourself as "loner" that you can't quit. And you'll just keep dumping on everyone around you until eventually, and please, trust me on this, there won't be anyone left.
Dr. Cox: [v.o.] There's a million reasons a relationship can crash and burn.
Dr. Cox: [mock crying] Give me a break.
