Kathy BakerQuotes

Wendy Paulson: P., you can't put this all on your own shoulders.

Hank Paulson: We're running out of options.

Wendy Paulson: Then you just keep trying. That's what you do. Eventually something's gonna work.

Hank Paulson: I'm not sure that that is true anymore. There is not a bank in the world that has enough money in its vault to pay its depositors. It's all built on trust. And, Wendy, we are so very close. Morgan Stanley, Goldman are an inch away. If the other banks stop trusting them, if they pull back on interbank lending, it's over in a matter of hours. And from there it goes too fast to stop, a run, and not just on one bank, I mean on the whole system. And average people wondering, "Is my money safe?" They start pulling their cash. And after that, lines outside the banks, smashed ATMs. A couple of weeks, there's no milk in the store.

Trish: Maxwell, you promised me you wouldn't!

Denny: [reads the letter] Are you kidding me? I just buried my wife and you're suing me for custody of my daughter?!

Trish: Denny, I'm so sorry. This is not at all what we thought...

Zoë: [arrives] Finished my egg.

Denny: Sweetheart, go inside and pack your things. We're gonna go home right now.

Denny: Zoë, go and get your stuff. We're leaving. Who the hell do you think you are?

Maxwell: [Denny shoves the letter against Maxwell's chest and Maxwell aggressively grabs Denny by the arm; Denny, in response, retracts the arm from Maxwell's grasp by force, causing Maxwell to fall and break a rib] You can't do this alone, and you know it. What happens when you're back to disappearing for days on end at those races of yours? You're on a plane every weekend. You missed her birth, for Christ's sakes! You're not taking her.

Jacey Holt: You look like a clown. He looks like a clown, mom, and he doesn't even know it. I thought you weren't going to the party.

Doug Holt: I changed my mind.

Helen Holt: Doug, you do realize that you maybe the only person in this party with artificial sideburns.

Helen Holt: There's different kinds of love, darling. Some people you love no matter what, and others you love if the situation was right. To me, the best kind of love is the "no matter what" kind.

Nurse Angela: [looking at an X-Ray] Do you know what this is?

Homer Wells: Oh, that's my heart.

Nurse Angela: No, actually, it's Fuzzy's. There's nothing wrong with your heart.

Nurse Edna: Dr. Larch wanted to keep you out of the war. That's why he told you it was yours.

Nurse Angela: He was worried about his own heart. He said it would never stand up to Homer Wells going off to war.

Esmeralda: He has been sent first to tempt you. But it's not too late. You must push him from you, expel him! Trample down the perversion of nature!

Joyce: [chuckles] Did you hear that? He's a perversion of nature. Why, isn't that exciting?
