It's been fun
Fun?
Sounded pithier than, 'We've shared a variety of situations'.
S8 E20Post Mortem
S8 E21Holding On
[On the phone to Wilson's mother] Hi, this is Greg House. Again. Third message. Hopefully indicating how much I want you to call me back. I'd say that your son is dying to increase the urgency, but you probably already know that.
Life is pain! I wake up every morning, I'm in pain! I go to work, I'm in pain! You know how many times I just want to give up? How many times I thought of ending it?
He's not my child. I cannot be responsible for the happiness of Gregory House.
You are responsible. The past 20 years, you've had three wives, hundreds of colleagues, thousands of patients. But you've kept that one best friend.
Chemo won't make your life any better, but caring will. Enduring pain to do some good for someone you care about - isn't that what life is?
You're the only one I listen to. The last couple of days I didn't, and I almost killed my patient. I think it's time for you to accept that you're just smarter than I am.
S8 E22Everybody Dies
KKutner (hallucination)
Don't bother. He's dead.
You're dead, too.
The fire isn't.
How are you possibly in a good mood?
Did you never see Dead Poets Society? Carpe diem!
Is this Hell, an eternity of everyone I know trying to convince me to live?
CCameron (hallucination)
Who says I'm here to convince you to live?
He was my friend. The thing you have to remember, the thing you can’t forget, is that Gregory House saved lives. He was a healer, and, and in the end...
House was an ass. He mocked anyone - patients, co-workers, his dwindling friends, anyone who didn’t measure up to his insane ideals of integrity. He claimed to be on some heroic quest for truth, but the truth is he was a bitter jerk who liked making people miserable, and he proved that by dying selfishly numbed by narcotics without a thought of anyone. A betrayal [phone rings] of everyone who cared about him. [Phone rings] Phone! A million times he needed me, and the one time that I needed him [phone rings] OH COME ON! This is a funeral! Just, get it! [Phone rings, phone rings]. Heh, heh, heh, well, this is embarrassing. I'd sworn I'd turned this off … this isn't my phone.
