3.  "I’m going to give you something for your humanity.”


Joel's:
"I'll be honest with you, Jim.  Removing your kidney was medically necessary.  My eating it was not."

"This is health care reform."

"Take me to your liver."

"I'm going to have to get a specimen."

"Before I can give you a diagnosis, Paul, I'm going to have to run a series of bizarre experiments on you."

"I've scheduled you for a procedure.  Insurance won't cover it, but there won't be any charge."

"It hurts when you breathe...what?"

"I could do the surgery myself, but I'm definitely outside your insurance network."

"Why yes, I can tell you how long you have."

"Most of my patients are undocumented aliens, but it's a mix, really."

"Oh, I'm not surprised.  We get a lot of new patients through the X-Files."
