Cristina: I haven't seen you all day.
Owen: What if I hadn't woken up? I can't even remember what happened. It's gone. I have no memory, no way to... I would never hurt you, ever. But I did. My hands just... like how could... how could my own two hands be capable... I can't do this. Cristina... I can't...We can't do this... we need to stop seeing each other.

Owen: I came back in one piece. I have both arms, both legs. Lots of other guys came back with real injuries. The worst I have is a couple of night mares or freezing for a moment.
Derek: Is that what happened last night? You had a freezing moment? If you want, I can help.
Owen: Yeah, I'm not the one who needs help around here. I'm not the one who cut out half a woman's brain and ran off to hide. I'm not the one who half this hospital is talking about behind their backs. So maybe you should spend a little less time worrying about me, and you know just take a look in the mirror. Alright.

Owen: What did Meredith tell you about last night? What did she say?
Derek: Post traumatic stress is a real injury Owen. It can be healed. There are resources, MED centres, therapy. You shouldn't try an handle this on your own.

Owen: He knows that.
Richard: We show up the next day, and we try and save the next life.
Callie: Yeah we covered that too.
Richard: Ok, what about this? Nothing we do can stop death. We can hold it at bay every now and then, but everyone dies. And that's not on us.
Derek: I took a pregnant woman in for a simple surgery, and I botched it. That is on me. I should feel badly about that. And you, you should feel badly that while I was out here, you sent Meredith out here expecting a ring. Why would you do that? Why in gods name, would you do that?
Richard: I was trying to help. She didn't wanna come. She wanted to leave you out here alone, I was trying to help Derek.
Derek: You were trying to help yourself. Not me. Yourself! I hit the ring in the woods. In the woods. You destroyed me.
