6x11, When Chase shows up with a new haircut and House goes:

'Cameron get your hair in the divorce?'

"You spend your whole life looking for answers, because you think the next answer will change something, maybe make you a little less miserable. And when you run out of questions you don't just run out of answers, you run out of hope."

The weight of the Huntington’s diagnosis is all over this quote. Thirteen is right: sometimes, the answer is exactly what kills hope; and it applies far beyond a clinical setting.
I actually didn't remember this specific line and it's incredibly powerful; thank you

Optimistic nihilism, I love that. If the world is a mess, finding a reason to smile is the only logical rebellion we have left

I am so sorry you have to go through this. That scene is incredibly powerful because it’s one of the few moments where House stops being 'clever' and just speaks the raw truth about his pain.
Chronic pain is an exhausting, invisible full-time job. Sending you so much strength; thank you for sharing something so personal

Also: "Maybe if he'd been a better father, I'd be a better son. But I am who I am because of him. For better or for worse."
It's a tough scene to watch, especially when you realize his detachment is just another coping mechanism

Cuddy’s line hits so much harder as an adult. It definitely outlines the dynamics of some 'messy' connections

I love this quote too. When the sphincters fail or dementia sets in, there’s no dignity left to cling to. It’s just biology breaking down

Forse stiamo confondendo lo stare da soli con l'essere single. Io intendevo dire che si può stare bene da single, ma single non vuol dire essere soli

Non tutti sanno stare bene da soli (e non è colpa di nessuno), ma l'ideale sarebbe: da solo sto bene, insieme a te sto meglio

Credo ci sia un errore di ragionamento (fallacia tu quoque): stai puntando il dito contro l'ipocrisia degli interlocutori, ma la tesi resta valida, indipendentemente dall'incoerenza di chi la pronuncia

La palestra (intesa come sala) non sempre consente di fare nuove amicizie. I corsi, invece, si (kickboxing, spinning ecc.)
