[about Taylor's funeral]
Carlos : You're supposed to speak.
Doc : Oh, oh, I'm supposed to speak! Well, well what am I gonna say, Carlos? Huh? What am I gonna say, that - - that Taylor died because she was stupid? Yeah, that's it. That's it! She was too stupid to get down off a burning car after she was told ten times.
Carlos : Doc, I...
Doc : You know what? She... She didn't want to have anything to do with being a medic. She thought she was so much better than that because she was a firefighter. A real hero! Not one of us taxi drivers for the dying and the dead. She died doing what she hated! Pissing all over my chosen profession, and yours! How'd that make you feel Carlos? Because I hated it! It pissed me off! - That's my eulogy... That's what I got! How you like it so far?

[Kim is showing off new boots that she got]
Kim : Laugh all you want now, but you're gonna be begging for a pair of these puppies next time we have to stand in the snow for two hours.
Doc : When do we ever have to stand in the snow for two hours?
Bobby : Never.
Jimmy : What the hell are those?
Bobby : Kim's entering the Iditarod.

Carlos : What I don't need is for every med. school I apply to to find out I got fired from an emergency medical position because I'm an emotional black hole... Or they put a worse evaluation: "I'm cold, self-centered, and aloof."
Doc : I wouldn't say that about you.
Carlos : You did, two days after I met you.
-
Ray : Is it always this busy?
Doc : Sometimes. Sometimes, nothing happens.
Ray : I'll bet your idea of nothing is a lot different than mine.

Doc : [about Carlos] Either of you know what the hell he was doing on that pole?
Taylor : No, but I wish I had some photos.
Kim : Walsh said he heard him screaming for someone to call 9-1-1.
Taylor : You're kidding.
Doc : It's not funny, guys.
Taylor : Oh come on, Doc, it is too funny.
Kim : [imitating Carlos] "Call 9-1-1!"

[about Carlos]
Dr. Thomas : Where'd he fall off again?
Doc : The fire pole. Two floors of it.
Dr. Thomas : Does that happen a lot?
Doc : No, he's... kind of special that way.

Doc : It's Boy Scout first aid. Shared body heat, skin to skin.
Carlos : Uh, I was never in the Boy Scouts. Doherty?
Jimmy : I'm driving.
Carlos : [takes off his shirt] I swear, if either of you tell anybody about this...
Jimmy : Oh, are you kidding me? When that lady pulls through she's gotta know. God, what I wouldn't do for a camera right now.

Doc : You know this day is going to be remembered? Alex died... and I got a promotion

[to Joy]
Doc : With my luck I'll meet your mom and realize I dated her in high school.

Doc : I hate phones, and I hate desks, and I hate paperwork. And I really hate those little carpeted cubicles. AND my trainee is late!

[looking at Carlos's baby pictures]
Doc : Oh, those ears.
Lucinda Harding : The boys teased him something terrible. They called him Cups because they stuck out like that.
Carlos : Cups?
Lucinda Harding : Now that was a brooding child if I ever saw one. Sweet enough, but not so affectionate. Always off on his own. Sort of self-involved.
Doc : You've come a long way, Cups.
-
Doc : He's dead. That's one miracle I can't work yet.
-
Doc : It's gotta be eight more minutes, and I thought you'd understand.
Carlos : Here's what I do understand - - I'm not letting this man die on the floor of my firehouse.
Doc : Hey, you better sit back down Carlos.
Carlos : If he dies, you're a murderer!
Doc : Sit down!
Carlos : You wanna shoot me? Shoot me.
