Quotes

Chidi Anagonye : I grew up in Senegal, so my native language is French. But I went to American schools, so I also speak English. And German and Greek. And Latin, just in case it ever comes back.
Eleanor Shellstrop : ...Cool. I once got 12 out of 12 on a Buzzfeed quiz called "Do you know all the slang words the Kardashians invented?"

Simone Garnett : [Chidi is in an MRI machine] I'm just going to ask you some basic questions, Chidi. What is one plus one?
Chidi Anagonye : Two.
Simone Garnett : What color is the sky?
Chidi Anagonye : Blue.
Eleanor Shellstrop : [Interrupts] What color are Simone's eyes?
Chidi Anagonye : [Without thinking] Brown. Uh uh, what?
Eleanor Shellstrop : If you could take Simone anywhere on a date, where would you take her?
Chidi Anagonye : Sorry, is this part of the experiment?
Simone Garnett : It is now, yes. Please answer the question. And keep in mind, we can see your brain.

Chidi Anagonye : So for Aristotle, virtue is practical. Goodness isn't something that a person just inherently has. It's something that she achieves through her actions. Questions?
Eleanor Shellstrop : Uh, yeah, a few. I wrote down "what?" "huh?" And then this doodle of a burrito because when I first read Aristotle, I thought it was pronounced like Chipotle.
[Has a sudden thought]
Eleanor Shellstrop : Wait a minute, is it "Chip-o-tottle"?

Chidi Anagonye : [after a near miss by a falling air conditioner] That, that is right where I was standing! I was frozen here, unable to make a single decision, and I almost got crushed by an air conditioner. This is a sign... I shouldn't be using air conditioners. The freon is awful for the environment.
Uzo : That's the lesson you take from this?
-
Chidi Anagonye : Huh, there are actual answers here, data you can observe and learn from.
Simone Garnett : Yeah, man, science is all about getting answers. You philosophers can spend your entire life mulling over a single questions. That's why everyone hates moral philosophy professors.
