Cristina: You know what’s wrong with having an 80 hour limit? It protects the weak. It levels the playing field. Which not only sucks. It’s, it’s dangerous.
Bailey: 80 hour work week. That’s what’s on your mind? (Cristina looks down) I thought about it. Not keeping it.
Cristina: You did?
Bailey: My husband and I ... we tried for years but still when that stick turned blue ... Well you can’t work the way we work, you can’t want the kind of careers that we want and not take pause. I took pause.
Cristina: You paused?
Bailey: I paused. I paused for a very long time.
Cristina: So why did...
Bailey: I sat up one night. Middle of the night ... and I knew I could do this... I still don’t know how I’m gonna do this but ... I knew I could do it. You just have to know and when you don’t know then no one can fault you for it. You do what you can when you can, while you can. And when you can’t, you can’t.

Cristina: Oh, I don't do resolutions.
Burke: In the name of the New Year I thought you could give me an answer to my question.
Cristina: Your question?
Burke: About you ... moving in.
Cristina (sighs): I don't have an answer.
Burke: Cristina.
Cristina: I’m not being Cristina. I just ... I don’t have an answer.
Burke: Then answer me this. What were you planning to do?
Cristina: About what?
Burke: The baby. (the scrub nurse interrupts them, Cristina leaves and Burke looks upset)
Meredith (voiceover): Who gets to determine when the old ends and the new begins? It’s not on the calendar, it’s not a birthday, it’s not a new year, it’s an event --big or small, something that changes us, ideally it gives us hope, a new way of living and looking at the world, letting go of old habits, old memories. What's important is that we never stop believing we can have a new beginning, but it's also important to remember amid all the crap are a few things really worth holding on to
