List of voters for the quote

Cuddy: You took Vicodin. When you came to my hospital room that night, you were stoned. House: How did you know? Cuddy: How did I not know? How did I make myself forget for months that you're an addict? My sub-conscious was trying to tell me you could never get through this without drugs. House: It was a one time thing. Cuddy: It's not about the pills, House. It's about what they mean. House: I was scared because I thought my girlfriend might die. Cuddy: No. You don't take Vicodin because you're scared. You take it so you won't feel pain. Everything you've ever done is to avoid pain; drugs, sarcasm, keeping everybody at arm's length so no one can hurt you. House: As opposed to everyone else in the world who goes looking for pain like it's buried treasure? Cuddy: Pain happens when you care. You can't love someone without making yourself open to their problems, their fears, and you're not willing to do that. House: I came -- I came to be with you. Cuddy: You weren't with me. Not really. House: I wanted to be. Cuddy: That's not enough. House: I can do better. Cuddy: I don't think you can. You'll choose yourself over everybody else over and over again because that's just who you are. [strokes House's face] I'm sorry. House: No, no, no. Don't don't. Cuddy: I thought I could do this. House: Don't, don't. Please don't. Cuddy: Goodbye, House.
