Chase: His theory correctly predicted pancreatitis.
Foreman: You might want to wait until he actually tells us his theory before you start kissing his theory's ass.

Foreman: Doing nothing is not a plan - it's specifically a lack of a plan!

House: Chase, hang the bag! You can grow a backbone tomorrow.

House: It's people like this who killed Copernicus.
Judge: Galileo.
House: Either way.
Judge: And they just locked Galileo up.
House: They killed his spirit. And nobody likes a showoff.

Edie: You're the doctor, I'm the mother. I outrank you. Live with it.

Cuddy: You think Dr. Wilson deserved to have his assets seized? His entire practice ruined?
Tritter: No.
Cuddy: So, you just don't care?
Tritter: This is how I get what I want. I put pressure on people. And if it doesn't work on Wilson, it will work on you.

House: This is my office, I'm talking, there are people here who work for me, but not listening. Explain this to me.

Foreman: (Speaking to Tritter). I really hope no one dies while I'm sitting here not talking to you.

Chase: Can we talk?
House: Nope.
Chase: I really think-
House: Either you screwed me and you want absolution or you didn't and you want applause. Either way - I'm not interested.

Judge: Your testimony is their child will die if I don't grant this motion right now?
House: Am I under oath?
Judge: Let's say yes.
House: My testimony is that this child might die if you don't grant this motion right now.
Judge: Literally no time for a second opinion.
House: Wouldn't be as good as the first opinion.
Judge: Dr. Cuddy, what do you think?
House: She's not a specialist in this area. Her opinion is worthless.
Judge: Dr. Cuddy, what do you think of Dr. House? Is he as big a jerk as I think he is?
Cuddy: Bigger. But, he knows what he's talking about.

Foreman: You stash your drugs in a lupus textbook?
House: It's never lupus.

(Cuddy is in a shower with the patient, trying to lower her temperature. House enters).
Cuddy: Look at her arm.
House: I told you it was an infection.
Cuddy: We fixed the infection.
House: Well, apparently not. I asked you for broad spectrum, you put her on the bare minimum. It's a good thing you failed to become a mom because you suck at it!

House: But, I hurt in an unreasonable way.
Cuddy: Then dip into your secret stash
House: Tritter took it.
Cuddy: Then move on to your secret, secret stash.
House: I ran out.
Cuddy: Then move on to your secret, secret, secret stash!

House: I am a complete stranger who apparently cares more about whether your kid dies than you do.
Edie: You're Dr. House.
House: You've seen my stage show.

Cuddy: People think House has no inner censor. The fact is he holds himself back, because when he wants to hurt - he knows just where to poke a sharp stick.

Cuddy: (After House has been pointing a laser pointer at her from another room). I'm sitting in there hoping it's a sniper because at least then the sociopath isn't my employee.

House: Right! She's six! She's cute! She can't have flesh eating bacteria! It's just wrong! Let's cure her with sunshine and puppies!

(In first appearance in court regarding patient).
House: It's people like this who killed Copernicus.
Judge: Galileo.
House: Either way.
Judge: And they just locked Galileo up.
House: They killed his spirit. And nobody likes a showoff. Luckily, Alice Hartmann has a dad who's willing to see reason.

(In second appearance in court regarding patient).
House: Luckily, Alice Hartmann has a mom who is willing to see reason.
Judge: You were in here yesterday telling me her father's guardianship was best for her.
House: I honestly figured I'd get a different judge today.

Judge: Arguing over every decision is a waste of her time and mine. Since her parents can't or won't agree, I'm awarding temporary guardianship to a doctor who will place the health of the child above all else.
Cuddy: I don't think Dr. House is capable-
Judge: Dr. Cuddy.
Cuddy: Yes, Your Honor?
Judge: No, I was finishing my sentence. The kid's all yours.

Chase: I wasn't kissing his a**.
Foreman: It just looked that way from our angle. You on your knees, House bending over.

Tritter: You testify - I can make sure that Marcus (Foreman's brother, currently in jail) goes free on parole in less than two months.
Foreman: My brother and I, we grew up in the same home. But, I made something of myself. He didn't.
Tritter: Dr. Foreman, the way you talk, you think you never committed any crimes yourself. Now, you and Dr. House, you are both cold bastards. You don't give a damn about your brother and you can't stand House. But, I do expect you to take this deal, because you hate hypocrisy more. House has had a thousand chances. You had two chances. Why is your brother stuck at one?
