Here are the quotes from this episode. I got them from Wikiquote, and if I've missed any, just comment and I'm sure someone will have the quote you're looking for:)
Some Kind of Miracle [3.17]Meredith: [voiceover] There are medical miracles. Being worshippers of the alter of science, we don't like to believe miracles exist. But they do. Things happen. We can't explain them, we can't control them, but they do happen. Miracles do happen in medicine. They happen everyday, just not always when we need them to happen. Cristina: Prepare ourselves? That’s what we tell the families before we call time of death. Izzie: She’s gonna be okay. George: Sometimes you’re wrong. Cristina: Uh-uh. No. Izzie: Cristina. Cristina: I’m not doing this. Izzie: Cristina. She’s gonna survive this. She’s gonna survive this. She’s gonna survive this. She’s gonna survive this… Alex: I dunno.. it's just.. Meredith always makes me think screwed up people have a chance. Cristina: It's small, it's tiny-sized...it-it's yellow. It has cat-type pictures on it, but it's a chair. For 99 cents you can buy furniture, now THAT is America, man! Joe: No, that's Taiwan, man. Meredith: I was swimming. I was fighting. And then I thought, just for a second, I thought ‘What’s the point?’ And then I let go. I stopped fighting. Don’t tell anybody. Denny: Okay Meredith: What? Denny: Izzie. Meredith: You can see her? Denny: No. Sometimes we’d be at the same place at exactly the same time and I can almost hear her voice. It’s like I’m touching her. I like to believe she knows I’m there. That’s all you get. That’s it. Moments with the people you love. And they’ll move on and you’ll want them to move on. But still, Meredith, that’s all you get. Moments. Meredith: Is this really happening? Denny: I don’t know. This is your afterlife, not mine. Burke: There’s no change. Thought you should know. Cristina: No kidding. Burke: You know, some do come back from this. Cristina: You know what? I’m not a civilian. I know the science here. It’s drinking time. Burke: Not yet. You have a responsibility to Meredith. Cristina: No. Uh Uh. I don’t do this stuff. You should know. I don’t go great lengths. Burke: Well, you were there for me. Cristina: After. After I knew you were going to make it. Hey, I’m not proud. Okay, I just…I can’t. I can’t go back there. I can’t. I can’t go back there and watch her. Burke: Listen to me. This is about you and the woman you call your person. And you do know the science here. And if she dies, and you are sitting here when that happens, I can’t see you coming back from that. Come and say goodbye to your friend. Denny: What happened in that water? Meredith: I swam, I fought. Denny: No, you didn't, and you can't stay here, Meredith. Meredith: I don't want to! Denny: Yeah, you do. It's easier, but you can't. Because George's Dad died, because Izzie lost me, and Cristina, when she was nine she was in a car accident with her Father and he bled out right in front of her while they waited for an ambulance to arrive, and Alex... Meredith: Stop! Denny: They are barely breathing, this will break them, and none of them deserves that. And this, this is the big one, so you pay attention. Do you know what kind of miracle it is that Derek is who he is? Do you know how rare it is that someone like him even exists? He's still an optimist. He still believes in true love and magic and soul mates. He's waiting for you, and if you don't come back from this...you will change who he is. Meredith: Oh, God... Addison: We never had that. He never felt that way about me. [Pause] Mark: I did. Addison: [starts walking away ] You know, sometimes I think what a waste it is to throw away all that history. Mark: I'm flawed and I'm a... a wreck, but you, it wasn't a game. Addison: 60 days. Go 60 days with no sex, no other women. 60 days cold turkey and maybe I'll believe you. Mark: So I only have sex with you? Addison: No. No sex with anyone. Grow up Mark. Find another way to scratch the itch. Mark: Say I do, you'll give us another try? A real try, the couple thing, no sneaking around, no bootycalls. Addison: If you make it. Yes. Mark: Ok. We're on. Oh, and Addison, if I'm not having sex, neither are you. Addison: Who would I possibly be having sex with? [shows Alex] Chief: [to Ellis] You’ve been gone a long time. and I know you think you died when the Alzheimer’s started. I know it’s a relief to you. I know. but it doesn’t feel like a relief to me. I’m not relieved. I miss the sound of your voice. I miss talking to you. I miss you. I dyed my hair. For the ladies. Meredith: [voiceover] At the end of a day like this when so many prayers are answered and so many aren’t, we take our miracles where we find them. We reach across the gap and sometimes against all odds, against all logic, we touch..against all odds it happens.
