House M.D. Episode's Best Quotes

    House Quotes
    • House: I am selling my soul.
      Dr. Wilson: Just a little piece. And you are getting something in return.
      House: I said I was selling it. I didn't say I was giving it away. That would be immoral and stupid.

    • Dr. Cameron: I thank you because it means something to me, to be grateful for what I receive.
      House: You are the most naive atheist I've ever met.

    • Dr. Cameron: You don’t need to worry about firing anyone. I’m leaving.
      House: Why? Is this another noble, self-sacrificing gesture? You trying to protect Foreman?
      Dr. Cameron: No.
      House: So this is just, "Don’t fire me, I quit."
      Dr. Cameron: I’m protecting myself. You asked me why I like you. You’re abrasive and rude, but I figured everything you do, you do it to help people. But I was wrong. You do it because it’s right.
