JD(To a depressed, drunken Dr. Cox.): I tried to convince myself the reason I didn't come in before was because of you coming into work drunk. But that's not it. I was scared. I guess after all this time, I still think of you as like this super hero, who will help me out of any situation I'm in. I needed that. But that's my problem, you know? And I'll deal with that. I guess I came over here to tell you how proud of you I am. Not because you did the best you could for those patients, but because after 20 years of being a doctor, when things go badly, you still take it this hard. And I gotta tell you man, I mean, that's the kind of doctor I want to be.

Hearing this quote is what made me realize that I’d finally grown up - and was finally going to do what is right for me: go into medicine. Every job has it’s stresses, and they’ll always hit you hard. I want to spend my life doing something where those stresses are worth losing the sleep over.
