"I used to worry a lot about who I'll be when I grow up. Like how much money I'd make, or someday I become some big deal. Sometimes the things you want the most doesn't happen, and sometimes the thing you never expect happen does. Like giving up my job in Chicago and everything, and deciding to stay and apply for med school. I don't know - you meet thousands of people and none of them really touch you. And then you meet that one person and your life is changed. Forever."

I used to worry about what kind of person I will become when I grow up, or how much money I can make, and one day I will become a big man. Sometimes the things you want the most don't happen, and sometimes the things you didn't expect happen. Such as giving up going to Chicago and everything else, deciding to stay and applying to medical school, I can't tell you, you meet thousands of people, but none of them can touch you, and then you meet one person and your life changes forever, forever changed.

  • Jamie Randall: Hey, Lisa.

    Bruce Winston: Her name's not Lisa.

    Jamie Randall: I know. I know. But, if everytime I say "Hey, Lisa", then eventually she'll come up to me and she'll be like, you know, "My name's not Lisa it's... Jennifer"... whatever, and I'll do a big apology and I'll say, "I thought you were the Lisa who was mad at me for not calling". And, from then on Jennifer, or whatever her name is, will think that I dated a girl who looked just like her... who I rejected. She'll develop this unconscious need to win my approval and from then on, it's cake.

    Bruce Winston: Damn!
