Quotes 

• Martha Masters : How could you do what you did?

  Ramon : That's why we have beliefs. So we can still see the right thing to do, when we're blinded with doubt and fear. Our beliefs define us. If we lose them, who are we?

• Martha Masters : You're smiling. Does that mean you're comfortable with your choice or that you're afraid. Because this may be your only hope.

  Ramon : You can prescribe a lot of things. But hope isn't one of them.

  Dr. Gregory House : Sticking by your convictions and damning the consequences. You two have a lot in common. You're both idiots.

• Martha Masters : If you had told me, he'd be dead by now. So why do I still want to tell the truth?

  Dr. Gregory House : Either you're naive or you have scruples. I'm not sure which is worse.

  Martha Masters : This is insane! We can't work like this.

  Dr. Gregory House : I can.

• Dr. Eric Foreman : Have you seen the bride-to-be?

  Dr. Robert Chase : Gorgeous woman half his age. He's a lucky guy.

  Dr. Eric Foreman : Yeah, for a while.

  Martha Masters : My father's 19 years older than my mother and they've been happily married for 32 years.

  Dr. Eric Foreman : I'm guessing your dad wasn't on the Forbes 400 and your mom didn't look like a swimsuit model.

  [Masters stares hard at him] 

  Dr. Eric Foreman : Sorry, that didn't come out right.

  Martha Masters : My father was the classics chair at Columbia and my mother was his student... His gorgeous student.
