A scene from City of Angels 1998
Seth

Are you in despair?

Maggie

I lost a patient.

Seth

You did everything you could?

Maggie

I was holding his heart in my hand when he died.

Seth

Then he wasn't alone.

Maggie

Yes, he was.

Seth

People died.

Maggie

Not on my table.

Seth

People died when their bodies give out.

Maggie

It's my job to keep their bodies from giving out. Or what am I doing here?

Seth

It wasn't your fault, Maggie.

Maggie

I wanted him to live.

Seth

He is living. Just not the way you think.

Maggie

I don't believe in that.

Seth

Some things are true whether you believe them or not.
