Human Error (Quotes)
Originally aired on May 29, 2007.
House: (Speaking to Esteban, the patient's husband). I'd better not hear you praying! I don't wanna have to fight for credit on this.
House: How come God gets credit when anything good happens?
Wilson: Nice try.
House: Nice tries are worthless.
Wilson: You don't answer your phone anymore.
House: I'm world famous now. Press won't leave me alone.
Wilson: It's Cuddy.
House: I know. If it was the press, I'd be answering.
House: (Speaking to Esteban). You came a long way to see me. You want to put her life in God's hands or mine?
House: You know how many little boys are praying for jet packs? How many priests are praying for... um, well... that one actually works.
Cameron: Her blood pressure's rising.
House: Mine is too. Of course, I am doing battle with the deity.
Wilson: You are not good with change.
House: That used to be true, but I changed.
Wilson: He's not afraid to be you. He's afraid to be what he thinks you are.
Esteban: Dr. House?
House: You can vacuum later.
Esteban: I'm not the janitor!
Esteban: I came a thousand miles to see him!
Chase: He doesn't care. I'm sorry, but that's who he is. That's who you risked your life to see. And you made the right choice.
Wilson: I told you to show Foreman you had a heart. How does that translate into you being a b******?
House: If there is one thing that Castro is good at, it's how to look great in green. If there are two things he's good at, it's how to look great in green and train doctors.
(Cameron gives Foreman a gift in light of him leaving).
Cameron: I'll miss you. I know you won't miss me, but I just thought it would be nice for you to have that.
Foreman: I will miss you.
(Foreman gives Cameron a hug).
House: Can I have a hug, too?
House: Sorry you're in the wrong room. My name on the door, my team, my decisions!
Cuddy: My building, my floor, my people!
(Telephone rings).
House: Hold that reprimand.
House: What if it wasn't human error. What if it was God's error?
House: Foreman's not as easy as Cameron, but of course, who is?
Cameron: I'm in the room.
House: Hey, we know what the problem is.
Esteban: You mean "was."
House: Hey, it’s my first tongue.
(After being called by Esteban in the middle of the night).
House: Who gave an angry Cuban my home number?
Cameron: Hi, it's Tuesday.
Chase: No, it's Monday.
Cameron: I know, I just didn't feel like waiting.
(Foreman comes to see House to say good bye).
Foreman: Well, this is it. I appreciate the opportunity you gave me.
House: Didn't do it for you. Thought you were the best guy for the job.
Foreman: Thanks. I guess.
House: Which is why I want you to stay. You're an important part of the team, I need you.
Foreman: I know. But, I don't need you, and I definitely don't want to be you. You're miserable.
House: I just solved a case by predicting a never before seen heart defect. Case you couldn't solve. Case you gave up on. I couldn't be happier.
Foreman: For two minutes maybe, until the next case comes along, until you're jonesing for your next fix. This woman talks while in full cardiac arrest and you're more excited about the talking than the heart dying.
House: The two were connected.
Foreman: I don't want to solve cases, I want to save lives.
House: Do you think she cares? Do you think the husband cares? Do you think the children she can now have because of me are going to care why I saved her?
Foreman: I care.
House: About yourself. About your own ego! You're the selfish b******, not me.
House: (Speaking about Foreman). He wants to not be me.
Wilson: Because you're a cold hearted bastard without any regard for anyone but yourself.
House: He's right.
House: (Speaking to Chase on the telephone). Thank you. You are indispensable. Uh... you're still fired. (Hangs up the phone). Wow, that was awkward!
House: How can we tell him there's no hope if we don't know why there's no hope?
House: In case no one's filled you in, today is Monday, which means you've been dead for a day. That kind of symptom comes back, it can get serious.
(Cameron gives House can envelope).
House: Better be naked pictures.
Cameron: It's my resignation letter. I've got all I can from this job.
House: What do you expect me to do? Break down and apologize? Beg Chase to come back?
Cameron: No, I expect you to do what you always do. I expect you to make a joke, go on. I expect you to be just fine. I'll miss you.
Marina: Is this Heaven?
House: No, it's New Jersey.
House: Just one more surgery and you'll be fine.
Marina: Thank God.
House: Don't make me slap you.
