Rescue Me, Season 5

Mike:
[about his inheritance] I already promised it to the Cancer Society.

Sean:
Ugh. The Cancer Society. What's the cancer society gonna cure with your measly $100,000?

Mike:
$250,000 actually.

Franco:
If you give it to those people, you know what they're gonna use it for?

Mike:
Research?

Franco:
Postage, to send letters out to other people to get more money. It's a vicious cycle, Mike. Not to mention, that they're never gonna find a cure, 'cause there isn't one. Cancer is God's disease, it's his way of thinning out the herd. And it's cruel, and mysterious and no one's ever gonna figure it out, 'cause that's the way that God likes it.
