Meredith Grey: [after a one-night stand with Derek Shepherd] I'm going to go ups tairs and take a shower. And when I come back you won't be here. So goodbye, Der ek." ---------------------------------------Katie Bryce: My head is full. Meredith Grey: It's called thinking. Go with it. ---------------------------------------Meredith Grey: Don't look at me like that, like you've seen me naked. ---------------------------------------Meredith Grey: I can't think of a single reason why I should be a surgeon, but I can think of a thousand reasons why I should quit. They make it hard on purpose ... there are lives in our hands. There comes a moment when it's more than just a game, and you either take that step forward or turn around and walk away. I co uld quit but here's the thing, I love the playing field. ----------------------------------------Meredith Grey: We're adults. When did th at happen? And how do we make it stop? ---------------------------------------Meredith Grey: At some point, you have to make a decision. Boundaries don't keep other people out. They fence you in. Life is messy. That's how we're made. So, you can waste your lives drawing lines. Or you can live your life crossing them. But there are some lines... that are way too dangerous to cross. ----------------------------------------Meredith Grey: You know how when you wer e a little kid and you believed in fairy tales, that fantasy of what your life w ould be, white dress, prince charming who would carry you away to a castle on a hill. You would lie in bed at night and close your eyes and you had complete and utter faith.

Most people turn to the things and people they can t rust.

----------------------------------------Meredith Grey: A couple of hundred years ago, Benjamin Franklin shared with the world the secret of his success. Never l eave that till tomorrow, he said, which you can do today. This is the man who di scovered electricity. You think more people would listen to what he had to say. I don't know why we put things off, but if I had to guess, I'd have to say it ha s a lot to do with fear. Fear of failure, fear of rejection, sometimes the fear is just of making a decision, because what if you're wrong? What if you're makin g a mistake you can't undo? The early bird catches the worm. A stitch in time sa ves nine. He who hesitates is lost. We can't pretend we hadn't been told. We've all heard the proverbs, heard the philosophers, heard our grandparents warning u s about wasted time, heard the damn poets urging us to seize the day. Still some

times we have to see for ourselves. We have to make our own mistakes. We have to learn our own lessons. We have to sweep today's possibility under tomorrow's ru g until we can't anymore. Until we finally understand for ourselves what Benjami n Franklin really meant. That knowing is better than wondering, that waking is b etter than sleeping, and even the biggest failure, even the worst, beat the hell out of never trying. ---------------------------------------Meredith Grey: Maybe we like the pain. Maybe we're wired that way. Because witho ut it, I don't know; maybe we just wouldn't feel real. What's that saying? Why d o I keep hitting myself with a hammer? Because it feels so good when I stop. ---------------------------------------Meredith Grey: Intimacy is a four syllable word for, "Here's my heart and soul, please grind them into hamburger, and enjoy." It's both desired, and feared. Dif ficult to live with, and impossible to live without. Intimacy also comes attache d to the three R's... relatives, romance, and roommates. There are some things y ou can't escape. And other things you just don't want to know. ---------------------------------------Meredith Grey: I wish there were a rulebook for intimacy. Some kind of guide to tell you when you've crossed the line. It would be nice if you could see it comi ng, and I don't know how you fit it on a map. You take it where you can get it, and keep it as long as you can. And as for rules, maybe there are none. Maybe th e rules of intimacy are something you have to define for yourself. ---------------------------------------Meredith Grey: Okay, here it is, your choice... it's simple, her or me, and I'm sure she is really great. But Derek, I love you, in a really, really big pretend to like your taste in music, let you eat the last piece of cheesecake, hold a r adio over my head outside your window, unfortunate way that makes me hate you, l ove you. So pick me, choose me, love me. - quotes from IMDB.com
