The phrase "Primum non nocere," or "First, do no harm," expresses one of the principal precepts all medical students are taught in medical school and is a fundamental principle for the emergency medical services. It reminds the physician and other health care providers that they consider the possible harm that any intervention might do. This is most often mentioned when debating use of an intervention with an obvious chance of harm but a less certain chance of benefit.

It is one of the most famous events in the city and the world's largest fair, with some six million people attending every year, and is an important part of Bavarian culture. Other cities across the world also hold Oktoberfest celebrations, modeled after the Munich event.
Responses
"Your papers, please.", often shortened to "Papers, please"., is an expression or trope associated with functionaries of authoritarian states, especially those of Nazi Germany.
Other Responses
Sturm und Drang (the conventional translation is "Storm and Stress"; a more literal translation, however, might be storm and urge, storm and longing, storm and drive or storm and impulse) is the name of a movement in German literature and music taking place from the late 1760s through the early 1780s in which individual subjectivity and, in particular, extremes of emotion, were given free expression in response to the confines of rationalism imposed by the Enlightenment and associated aesthetic movements.
"Oktoberfest!" - "Cheers" voice command or Oktoberfest taunt
The Oktoberfest is a sixteen-day festival held each year in Munich, Germany from late September to early October. It is one of the most famous events in the city and the world's largest fair, with some six million people attending every year, and is an important part of Bavarian culture.

The Übermensch (or "superman") is a concept in the philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche. Nietzsche posited the Übermensch as a goal for humanity to set for itself in his 1883 book Thus Spoke Zarathustra. This fits with the Medic's sadism and his ethical procedures and methods (or lack thereof), as Nietzsche's concept of the Übermensch orbits around moral values and the progress of humanity and their interactions.
However, it is also a possibilty that the line is simply a reference to the comic book hero Superman.

It is interesting to note that the German pronunciation of "schön" is sh-URN while the Medic and Wayne Newton pronounce it in its Yiddish form, "sh-AIN" (rhymes with pain).
"I am melting!" "- on fire
This is a reference to a line from The Wizard of Oz during the scene where the Wicked Witch of the West melts into the ground after being defeated.
"Uh hello! Magic book? Do you still have Demoman's eye? I'll trade you a heart for it!" - during the Spectral Halloween Special when Merasmus brings out the Bombinomicon
