House, Season 1

[House has just admitted he is addicted to Vicodin.]

Dr. House:
I said I was an addict, I didn't say I had a problem. I pay my bills, I make my meals. I function.

Dr. Wilson:
That all you want? You have no relationships.

Dr. House:
I don't want any relationships.

Dr. Wilson:
You alienate people.

Dr. House:
I've been alienating people since I was three.

Dr. Wilson:
Oh, come on! Drop it! You don't think you've changed over the last few years?

Dr. House:
Of course I have. I've...I've gotten older. My hair's got thinner. Sometimes I'm bored. Sometimes I'm lonely. Sometimes I wonder what it all means.

Dr. Wilson:
No. I was there. You are not just some regular guy who's getting older. You've changed! You're miserable! And you're afraid to face yourself-

Dr. House:
[slams his cane on the shelf] OF COURSE I'VE CHANGED!

Dr. Wilson:
[pause] And everything's the leg? Nothing's the pills? They haven't done a thing to you?

Dr. House:
They let me do my job. And they take away my pain.
