Classic Cristina Quotes

"If I miss a real procedure because of this case, they're gonna call me 007 because I killed you."

"Whatever - everybody has problems. Now get your ass out of bed and get to work. NOW! Move-move-move!"

"It's like candy, but with blood. Which is so much better!"

"Cristina: I need you to help me find the leg! Aren't boyfriends supposed to help in situations like this?
Burke: When we're on duty, I can't be your boyfriend.
Cristina: So, when we're on duty, I can have sex with someone else?"

"(about inviting Burke to Thanksgiving dinner) What was I supposed to do? Blow off my boyfriend for Thanksgiving? [pause] I tried to. He wouldn't blow. He's like something sticky that won't blow off."

"You are eight feet tall. Your boobs are perfect. Your hair is down to there. If I was you I would just walk around naked all the time. I wouldn't have a job, I wouldn't have any skills, I wouldn't even know how to read. I would just be... naked."

"No more chickens. Okay? It’s bad enough that Meredith is dating a vet, I am not dating a chicken surgeon."

"I'm knee deep in coffee, and he's on the sofa playing with himself. And not in a good way."

"Oh look - she's laughing. Because he made a joke, which probably wasn't funny. Ohhh, you funny vet!"

"You had a dream about the both of them. Threesome? Nice! Just when I think you're boring, you rise."

"Look, I'd rip your face off if it meant I got to scrub in."

"I need a drink, a man, or a massage... or a drunken massage from a man."

"Meredith: I can't belive I caved...
Cristina: I blame the babies, they make you toxic."

"Surgery's hot. It's the marines. It's macho. It's hostile. It's hardcore. Geriatrics is for freaks who live with their mothers and never have sex."

"Meredith: All right, details. You're pregnant? What are you gonna do?
Cristina: Well, you know what happens to pregnant interns. I'm not switching to vagina squad or spending my life popping zits. I'm too talented, surgery's my life."

"I have an MD from Stanford and a PhD from Berkley, I can handle this diaper... unless you want to?"

"This... is where I live. My mother decorated it. I don't do laundry, I buy new underwear. See, and uh, under the table? Six months of magazines I know I'll never read, but I won't throw out. I don't wash dishes, vacuum, or put the toilet paper on the holder. I hired a maid once, she ran away crying. Uh... the only things in my fridge are water, vodka, and diet soda. And I don't care, but you do. Still think living together is a good idea?"

"If you want crappy things to stop happening to you, then stop accepting crap and demand something more."

"Cristina: I'm not being inappropriate, he's acting like she skinned his puppy.
Burke: Yang, that's not nice.
Cristina: Well, I'm not a nice person."

"Helen Rubenstein: The daughter I raised would appreciate her mothers help.
Cristina: The daughter you raised is begging for you to go NOW.
Helen Rubenstein: I didn't have to come here. You know I'm very busy.
Cristina: I know, I know. Re-decorating your house.
Helen Rubenstein: [Stands at the end of Cristina's bed, glaring]
Cristina: Well, can you get me a mocha latte, please?
Helen Rubenstein: A non-fat one?
Cristina: No... A FAT one."

"Your mother called me a racist! She thinks I'm a racist stripper!"

TFTNT! Now lets get a-thinking on that name.

Musidora · 12-06-2008, 12:31 PM

Now we need to pretty up and update the opening thread, right? Especially the quotes, there has been plenty of great quotes since the last one we have there

You've been added

And yes, a name... *thinks*

gingerly · 12-06-2008, 12:32 PM

Yup! Definitely. Can I be added to the list, too. Please?

I'll go looking for some quotes.

Musidora · 12-06-2008, 12:57 PM

You've been added

Changed a few things on the OP, just to give it a freshier look. We should think of more reasons too, because there aren't nearly enough. Some I have in mind:

Because she's very smart and driven
Because she's a tough cookie!
Because she's ambitious
Because she's not afraid to speak her mind
Because she has worked really hard to be where she is now
Because being good isn't gonna cut - she wants to be the BEST
Because she doesn't want her men to be weak

Because she's a fun, lazy roomate
Because she stands out
Because she wanted the solo surgery and they picked HER

JJ4EVER · 12-06-2008, 01:08 PM

Because she continues to grow as a surgeon and a human
Because SHE WON THE HOT DOG EATING CONTEST
Because you KNOW you would want her doing your surgery
Because she is unapologetically herself

Musidora · 12-06-2008, 01:10 PM

Love those, especially the last one

I think it should definitely be a future thread title.

gingerly · 12-06-2008, 01:18 PM

Love them! Thanks for the add, too.

Look, I'd rip your face off if it meant I got to scrub in.

I need a drink, a man, or a massage... or a drunken massage from a man.

Meredith: I can't belive I caved...
Cristina: I blame the babies, they make you toxic.

Surgery's hot. It's the marines. It's macho. It's hostile. It's hardcore. Geriatrics is for freaks who live with their mothers and never have sex.

Meredith: All right, details. You're pregnant? What are you gonna do?
Cristina: Well, you know what happens to pregnant interns. I'm not switching to vagina squad or spending my life popping zits. I'm too talented, surgery's my life.

George: Tomorrow I'm gonna buy a t-shirt that says, "Stop asking me about Meredith," and I'm gonna wear it everyday until people stop asking me about Meredith.
Cristina: [sees Meredith coming] Shhh! At least they won't be asking you about your hair.

I have an MD from Stanford and a PhD from Berkley, I can handle this diaper... unless you want to?

Cristina: Do you use moisturizer? Here, take this. Keep it behind the bar.
Joe: Wow, what is this? It smells like something burning.
Cristina: It's gingerbread.
Joe: Yeah...
Cristina: You're not getting this, are you? Okay, this is ninety-nine cents.
[she gestures to the dozens of bags around her]
Cristina: You can buy anything for ninety-nine cents. Oh!
[she rummages through her bags and pulls out a yellow plastic chair]
Cristina: It's small. It's tiny size. It has cat-type creatures on it. But it is a chair. For ninety-nine cents, you can buy furniture. That is America, man!
Joe: That's Taiwan, man!

This... is where I live. My mother decorated it. I don't do laundry, I buy new underwear. See, and uh, under the table? Six months of magazines I know I'll never read, but I won't throw out. I don't wash dishes, vacuum, or put the toilet paper on the holder. I hired a maid once, she ran away crying. Uh... the only things in my fridge are water, vodka, and diet soda. And I don't care, but you do. Still think living together is a good idea?

If you want crappy things to stop happening to you, then stop accepting crap and demand something more.

Cristina: I'm not being inappropriate, he's acting like she skinned his puppy.
Burke: Yang, that's not nice.
Cristina: Well, I'm not a nice person.

Helen Rubenstein: The daughter I raised would appreciate her mothers help.
Cristina: The daughter you raised is begging for you to go NOW.
Helen Rubenstein: I didn't have to come here. You know I'm very busy.
Cristina: I know, I know. Re-decorating your house.
Helen Rubenstein: [Stands at the end of Cristina's bed, glaring]
Cristina: Well, can you get me a mocha latte, please?
Helen Rubenstein: A non-fat one?
Cristina: No... A FAT one.

Your mother called me a racist! She thinks I'm a racist stripper!

Obviously they don't ALL have to be added, but I thought that we could admire the brilliance that is Cristina quotes.

JJ4EVER · 12-06-2008, 01:21 PM

YESSSSSSS.

Guess who's filming a new movie?
Defendor (2009)

I'm stoked. It's been so long since she's done a movie, it seems.

allybubba · 12-06-2008, 03:40 PM

Title is so dang true.

Add me, please.

CheEsecAKe&BRUCAS · 12-06-2008, 05:06 PM

ZOMFG!!! YAY!!! NEW THREAD!

I'm SO FRICKEN PSYCHED!! I love all the reasons suggested and the quotes made my night!

I love this one!

This... is where I live. My mother decorated it. I don't do laundry, I buy new underwear. See, and uh, under the table? Six months of magazines I know I'll never read, but I won't throw out. I don't wash dishes, vacuum, or put the toilet paper on the holder. I hired a maid once, she ran away crying. Uh... the only things in my fridge are water, vodka, and diet soda. And I don't care, but you do. Still think living together is a good idea?

Musidora · 12-06-2008, 05:24 PM

Reasons and quotes added! Added you also, allybubba

My favorite is this one...
"If you want crappy things to stop happening to you, then stop accepting crap and demand something more."

It's just so Cristina. She doesn't settle for anything other than the BEST.

CheEsecAKe&BRUCAS · 12-06-2008, 05:33 PM

Exactly.

I also love the "she is unapologetically herself" one. I think that fits Cristina more than anyone else on the show.

Favourite scene by Sandra Oh this season? Mine is when she told Hunt about her father's accident. That was just...blew me away.

allybubba · 12-06-2008, 05:40 PM

Thanks a bunch!
