- Seth: I would rather have had one breath of her hair, one kiss of her mouth, one touch of her hand, than eternity without it. One.
- Seth: To touch you... and to feel you. To be able to hold your hand right now. Do you know what that means to me? Do you - Do you know how much I love you?
- Maggie Rice: I don't understand a God who would let us meet, if there's no way we could ever be together.
- Seth: Why do people cry?
- Maggie: What do you mean?
- Seth: I mean, what happens physically?
- Maggie: Well... umm... tear ducts operate on a normal basis to lubricate and protect the eye and when you have an emotion they overact and create tears.
- Seth: Why? Why do they overact?
- Maggie: [pause] I don't know.
- Seth: Maybe... maybe emotion becomes so intense your body just can't contain it. Your mind and your feelings become too powerful, and your body weeps.
- Maggie Rice: Do you feel that?
- Seth: Yes.
- Maggie Rice: And that? How's it feel? Tell me what it feels like.
- Seth: I can't.
- Maggie Rice: Try.
- Seth: Warm. Aching.
- Maggie Rice: It's okay. We fit together.
- Seth: I know.
- Maggie Rice: We were made to fit together.
- Seth: What's that like? What's it taste like? Describe it like Hemingway.
- Maggie Rice: Well, it tastes like a pear. You don't know what a pear tastes like?
- Seth: I don't know what a pear tastes like to you.
- Maggie Rice: Sweet, juicy, soft on your tongue, grainy like a sugary sand that dissolves in your mouth. How's that?
- Seth: It's perfect.
- Seth: You're an excellent doctor.
- Maggie: How do you know?
- Seth: I have a feeling.
- Maggie: That's pretty flimsy evidence.
- Seth: Close your eyes. It's just for a moment.
- [touches her hand]
- Seth: What am I doing?
- Maggie: You're... touching me.
- Seth: Touch. How do you know?
- Maggie: Because, I feel it.
- Seth: You should trust that. You don't trust it enough.
- Nathaniel Messinger: [telepathically to Seth while eating pancakes] ... and you're reading my mind right now.
- Seth: Stop that!
- Nathaniel Messinger: Seth knows no fear, no pain, no hunger, he hears music in the sunrise. But he'd give it all up, he loves you that much.
- Maggie Rice: I don't understand.
- Nathaniel Messinger: He can fall, he can give up his existence as he knows it, he can give up eternity and become... one of us.
- Maggie Rice: Are you here? I want to see you. Let me see you. Just stay. Just stay until I fall asleep.
- Seth: I came to take Mr. Balford... and I saw you. I couldn't take my eyes off you. How you fought for him. And you looked right at me... like I was a man.
- Seth: Am I too late?
- Maggie Rice: Too late?
- Seth: Jordan?
- Maggie Rice: I couldn't marry Jordan. I'm in love with you.
- Seth: I always asked the dying what they liked best about living. Wrote it down in my book. This is it. This is what I like best.
- Maggie Rice: Got a message for me?
- Seth: I already gave it to you.
- Maggie Rice: Well, did you use my pager? 'Cause I usually don't get my messages unless you beep me.
- Seth: You've definitely been beeped.
- Seth: I was there in the stairwell... when you cried for your patient. And I touched you, remember?
- Maggie Rice: Why are you doing this?
- Seth: Because I'm in love with you.
- Seth: Hello Maggie! It's nice to see you again.
- Maggie Rice: It's weird to see you again.
- Seth: Weird is nice.
- Maggie: Something happened in my OR. And, I got this-this jolt - I got this feeling that there's something... bigger is out there. There's something bigger than me and bigger than you, and it- Does that sound crazy?
- Mack Truck driver: Where are you headed?
- Seth: Tahoe!
- Mack Truck driver: Reno.
- Seth: Tahoe!
- Mack Truck driver: I'm going to Reno!
- Seth: I'm going to Tahoe!
- Mack Truck driver: Hop in, we'll figure it out when we get there.
- Maggie Rice: We fight for people's lives in here, right?
- Jordan Ferris: Uh-huh.
- Maggie Rice: Don't you ever wonder who it is we're fighting with?
- Nathaniel Messinger: Listen, kid: he gave these bozos the greatest gift in the universe - you think he didn't give it to us, too?
- Seth: Which gift?
- Nathaniel Messinger: Free will, brother. Free will.
