Evie: One more quick question. How old is Floyd supposed to be?
Lauren: I don't know. He's not my boyfriend. We just slept together a couple of times.

She won't love me the same. Is there a coping mechanism for that?

Amy

Kapoor: You have to understand, they're afraid of what others think.
Iggy: Yeah, but who cares what others think?

Kapoor: You want us to defraud the hospital?
Max: Exactly.

Amy: I have a lot of good things in my life, I shouldn't have depression.
Iggy: Depression doesn't work that way, but the good news is it's highly treatable.
Amy: How?
Iggy: The first step is to ask for help.

Helen: There's a 90% chance of dying during surgery.
Max: Or a 10% chance that you'll live.
Rabbi: Not good odds.

I would think a real reward would be not being an addict.

Kapoor

Georgia: You know I'm on Team Max, right?
Max: Of course I do.
Georgia: No, I mean I have banners and hats and--
Max: You have a hat?
Georgia: Sometimes it feels like I'm the only one.

Floyd: You becoming part of this chain is our best bet at saving Gianna.
Max: We realize you may need some time.
Diego: I'll do it.
Max: You understand what we're asking?
Diego: Give me the knife, and I'll do it myself.

Max: We will find Aninah a donor just not today.
Kapoor: Will Tariq agree to donate without Aminah having a donor?
Max: It's the right thing to do.
Helen: The right thing to do? That he should give up a piece of himself while we take away his wife's hope?
Max: It's the best option we have.

Tonya: Do you have a brother, Dr. Frome?
Iggy: I did yes. He passed away.
Tonya: Would you have given him a part of yourself to save him?
Iggy: Yeah, but you don't get do-overs right?

Georgia: In English, please. It sounds very important but um, all I care about is, could he...? What are his odds?
Max: Georgia.
Georgia: No, Max. I need an answer from your doctor.
Helen: Georgia, with cancer the odds are difficult to quantify but I believe that this is our very best option.
Georgia: So why haven't we started already?
Helen: Yes, Max, why haven't we started already?

New Amsterdam Season 1 Quotes

My sister Luna and I were born here in New Amsterdam, and eight years later, Luna died here. Hospital-acquired infection. Entirely preventable.

Max

Max: Unlike the previous medical director, I actually expect you to practice medicine at this hospital because I don't know, that's your job.
Helen: You're funny.
Max: You said that.
Helen: I'll tell you what, I'll continue giving speeches all over the world because you can't afford the type of publicity I give this hospital. And I'll continue my on-air appearances with Ellen, Oprah, and anyone else powerful enough to go by one name because someone has to remind New York that even though New Amsterdam is an underfunded public hospital, we can still go toe-to-toe with the privates from basic care to state of the art procedures. I will be back next week with lunch at the Tavern. My treat.
