Elizabeth Corday
- Dr. Mark Greene: [When Mark decides not undergo anymore chemotherapy] I'm finished. I've had enough.
- Elizabeth Corday: You can go up now, and I'll drive you home.
- Dr. Mark Greene: Elizabeth.
- Elizabeth Corday: This isn't something that you decide by yourself on the spur of the moment
- Dr. Mark Greene: This might be the last important decision I get to make.
- Elizabeth Corday: You haven't given it time to work, Mark. Please.
- Dr. Mark Greene: I dropped an ET tube today. I couldn't wrap my thumb around it.
- Elizabeth Corday: That doesn't mean the chemo's not working.
- Dr. Mark Greene: It's a game, Elizabeth. I don't wanna play.
- Elizabeth Corday: Look, it's only the second cycle. This treatment could prolong your life.
- Dr. Mark Greene: Maybe. For a couple of months.
- Elizabeth Corday: Well, then give yourself that time. Give it to me and Ella. Give it to Rachel. Who knows what might happen? We see patients here every day who are told that they should have been dead long ago.
- Dr. Mark Greene: I need to be realistic.
- Elizabeth Corday: You mean give up.
- Dr. Mark Greene: It's not giving up. It's making a choice. I'd rather have two good months than twice that chained to meds and needles and IV stands, stuck in a bed sitting next to other clock-watchers, being prodded and small-talked to by doctors and nurses, all of them with that look in their eye like you're already gone. I don't want to end it like that.
