Quotes
-
Dr. Jessica Adams : Echovirus.
Dr. Gregory House : ...virus, virus, virus, virus...
-
Dr. James Wilson : Taking money from a sick person is ethically suspect at best.
Dr. Gregory House : What is this, Canada? All we do is take money from sick people.
-
Dr. Chi Park : That's naive and sick. You really want to improve things? You do it through policy. This guy empties his pockets, what really changes?
Dr. Gregory House : That's right. All those babies with AIDS, they're just using us.
Dr. Chi Park : My parents had $800 between them when they got here. They scraped and borrowed so we could go to good schools and I worked my ass off. No one gave me a handout. It makes me work harder.
-
Dr. Eric Foreman : House, I worked for you for seven years. I know how you operate, so when I see symptoms magically show up right when you need them...
Dr. Gregory House : And I was your boss for seven years and I know what a suspicious, micromanaging hard-ass you are.
-
Dr. Jessica Adams : I'm not working, House. I'm in the process of looking for a paying job.
Dr. Gregory House : In the meantime, there's no way a do-gooder like you has been volunteering all over town: ladling kittens, spaying soup...
Dr. Jessica Adams : There is a free clinic in Trenton.
Dr. Gregory House : Well, think of this as today's free clinic only with fewer bums with herpes.
-
Dr. Gregory House : [to Wilson] Hypothetical: if I'm offered oral sex from a sexaholic, do I have to decline? Don't answer yet. Saying no will cause both of us pain. Saying yes will cause both of us pleasure.
-
Dr. Gregory House : Ah, Dr. Foreman. Perhaps you can help us. I can't decide whether to take out an "I told you so" ad in the New England Journal or stay classy and just spray-paint it on your car.
-
Benjamin Byrd : [to House] I don't wanna give you money because you're an ass.
Dr. Gregory House : I was an ass last week.
-
Dr. Gregory House : Thirteen. Wait a minute.
[Thirteen comes back]
Dr. Gregory House : You're fired.
Dr. Remy 'Thirteen' Hadley : Now what? House, I'm starving.
Dr. Gregory House : I'm not joking. You're fired. Don't come in tomorrow.
Dr. Remy 'Thirteen' Hadley : House...
Dr. Gregory House : I can work with people who've got nowhere else to go. People who got something to prove. People who just get off on weird cases. What I can't work with is someone who's here so she doesn't have to feel bad.
Dr. Remy 'Thirteen' Hadley : You're trying to save me.
Dr. Gregory House : Yes... I think that little of you and that much of me.
Dr. Remy 'Thirteen' Hadley : [Waits a moment and realizes he's giving her permission to leave to enjoy the rest of her life] OK. Bye, House.
[Leaves]

Dr. Jessica Adams : [about Benjamin] Most people with his kind of money are commissioning oil paintings of their Yorkshire terrier. Benjamin is sacrificing his own comfort to help others.
Dr. Gregory House : That's because helping others is his Yorkie oil painting.
-
Dr. Chi Park : Guy collapsed after being on his feet for hours on a hot day without breakfast, so... that's really weird.
Dr. Gregory House : E.R. found nothing wrong, then I decided I should test his wallet.
Dr. Chi Park : He's rich? That's why we're taking the case?
Dr. Gregory House : No, we're taking the case because no one knows what's wrong with him and he's rich.
-
Dr. Jessica Adams : [to House] You said we were meeting for coffee.
Dr. Gregory House : Well, when someone asks if you want coffee, they obviously don't just mean coffee. Wait... did you think I was referring to sex?
-
Dr. Gregory House : Racing heart: Medical condition. Bleeding heart: Stupid condition.
