Robert Sean Leonard: Dr. James Wilson

Quotes 

• Dr. James Wilson : I'm in the trenches. I'm - I'm doing triage as best I can. You had the chance to end the war! How is someone like me supposed to keep fighting when someone like you just - walked away?

  Dana Miller : When I left my job, a lot of people were furious with me. It was easier to be angry than to admit they weren't happy. That they were stuck in a rut somewhere in their lives unable to move forward. What's your rut?

• Dr. James Wilson : You're here because you like this. You like working with him.

  Dr. Lisa Cuddy : [sarcastically]  Wow. If only I'd known I was having fun. I wouldn't have cancelled the bouncy house.

  Dr. James Wilson : Fire him. And go be home with your new baby.

  Dr. Lisa Cuddy : I like what he does for this hospital.

  Dr. James Wilson : What he does is who he is. And the same goes for you.

• Dr. James Wilson : I am stuck. My girlfriend died. She was the only person I've loved for a long time, and... I'm still living in her apartment, I'm surrounded by her things. I've left it all exactly where it was... I don't know how to get unstuck.

  Dana Miller : The only wrong thing is... to do nothing.

  Dr. James Wilson : Yeah.

• Dr. James Wilson : I hear Cuddy's SEAL training finally came in handy. Should I be investing in a flak jacket?

  Dr. Gregory House : You're safe.
