Quotes5

  • Surgeon: There are subtle variations in even the simplest surgical...
  • Bertram Pincus: What would a subtle variation be in my case, for example?
  • Surgeon: Well, one doesn't wish to use jargon.
  • Bertram Pincus: No.
  • Surgeon: But, you know, technically - medically, it's beginning - yeah - you died.
  • Bertram Pincus: I died?
  • Surgeon: A little bit.
  • Bertram Pincus: For how long?
  • Surgeon: Seven minutes.
  • Hospital Lawyer: A bit less.
  • Surgeon: Everybody dies.
  • Bertram Pincus: Yeah, but usually at the end of their life, and just the once and forever.
  • Surgeon: Everybody's different.
  • Surgeon: Not a real people person, are you, Dr. Pincus?
  • Bertram Pincus: Not really. Given a choice between a few people and loads of people, I choose my cat. She hunts dwarves. She takes them up the tree. They're still alive. You can see their little legs going. Sounds like Norah Jones when she plays the piano.
  • Bertram Pincus: Yes or no? Did anything unusual happen during my procedure?
  • Surgeon: Yeah.
  • Bertram Pincus: What?
  • Surgeon: No!
  • Bertram Pincus: You said "yes" first.
  • Surgeon: "No" - is what I ended with. "Yes, no" - means no.
  • Surgeon: What kind of side effects?
  • Bertram Pincus: Hallucinations.
  • Surgeon: Visual or aural?
  • Bertram Pincus: Both. And really vivid, really realistic, weird, I mean, that's not normal.
  • Surgeon: Well, you know. What's normal, you know? Really.
  • Bertram Pincus: Not having hallucinations, I'd have thought.
