Meredith: [voiceover] A couple of hundred years ago, Benjamin Franklin shared with the world the secret of his success. “Never leave that till tomorrow,” he said, “Which you can do today.” This is the man who discovered electricity. You’d think more of us 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 say it has a lot to do with fear. Fear of failure. Fear of pain. Fear of rejection. Sometimes the fear is just of making a decision, because what if you’re wrong? What if you make a mistake you can’t undo? Whatever it is we're afraid of, one thing holds true: that by the time the pain of not doing the thing gets worse than the fear of doing it. It can feel like we're carrying around a giant tumor. And you thought I was speaking metaphorically.
George: She's gonna be late.
Izzie: Maybe not.
George: We should wait for her.
Izzie: Definitely not. I'm not her mother and you are not her boyfriend, [Grinning] not yet anyways.
George: Stop, ok, I told you I'm not interested.
Izzie: Life is short George, do you really want to die before you ask her out?
George: I do not want to ask her out.
Izzie: Do you really want to die a liar?
George: I’m not … dying.
Cristina: [To Burke after sleeping with him] That was definitely worth being late.
Cristina: [to Meredith] Oh, please, a hot doctor wants to make you open up and say ah. It’s the American dream, stop whining about it
Meredith: No, there's no good that can come from sleeping with your boss.
Derek: Miranda.
Bailey: Excuse me?
Derek: Well, that's your name right? It's on your jacket. Fine, I'll just call you Bailey then.
Bailey: You know you think you charming, in that talented, neurotic, overly moussed hair sort of way. Good for you. But if you think I'm gonna stand back and watch while you favor her...
Derek: I don't favor her. She's good.
Bailey: I'm sure she is.
Derek: You know, can I point out, technically, I'm your boss.
Bailey: You don't scare me. Look, I'm not gonna advertise your extracurricular activities with my intern. However next time I see you favoring Meredith Grey in any way, I'll make sure she doesn't see the inside of an OR. For a month. Just for the sake of balance!
Cristina: If I stab this fork into his thigh will I get in trouble?
Meredith: Not if you make it look like an accident.
Izzie: [to a patient after he throws up on Alex] You are so my favorite person today.
Burke: What is this? That we’re doing here. What is it?
Cristina: You need a definition? You really want to be that guy?
Burke: Lock the door.
Meredith: [voiceover] The early bird catches the worm; a stitch in time saves nine. He who hesitates is lost. We can't pretend we haven't been told. We've all heard the proverbs, heard the philosophers, heard our grandparents warning us about wasted time, heard the damn poets urging us to ‘seize the day'. Still sometimes 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 rug until we can't anymore, until we finally understand for ourselves like Benjamin Franklin meant. That knowing is better than wondering, that waking is better than sleeping. And that even the biggest failure, even the worst most intractable mistake beats the hell out of never trying.
