Rizwan Manji: Dr. Deb Chaman

Quotes 

• Dr. Deb Chaman : [Giving Backstrom a physical exam]  Are you still drinking?

  Everett Backstrom : Absolutely not!

  Dr. Deb Chaman : When a patient says "Absolutely not!", he's absolutely lying.

  Everett Backstrom : If you Hindus are so smart, how come 98 percent of you live at the dump?

• Everett Backstrom : [Mentally trying to understand Dr. Chaman by momentarily assuming his persona]  I'm a Hindu. I believe after we die, we come back to life. So why am I a doctor? Why am I working so hard at keeping people alive? Because I realize that reincarnation is a load of crap. We've only got one life, and it's meaningless. I'm terrified of death.

  Dr. Deb Chaman : And you aren't?

  Everett Backstrom : Absolutely not!

• Det. Lt. Everett Backstrom : [Referring to Nadia]  We're not sleeping together. She's some kind of genius.

  Dr. Deb Chaman : The first statement proves the second.
