    “Demons run when a good man goes to war
    Night will fall and drown the sun
    When a good man goes to war

    Friendship dies and true love lies
    Night will fall and the dark will rise
    When a good man goes to war

    Demons run, but count the cost
    The battle's won, but the child is lost”

    “People assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect, but *actually* from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint - it's more like a big ball of wibbly wobbly... time-y wimey... stuff.”

    “When you run with the Doctor, it feels like it'll never end. But however hard you try you can't run forever. Everybody knows that everybody dies and nobody knows it like the Doctor. But I do think that all the skies of all the worlds might just turn dark if he ever for one moment, accepts it. Everybody knows that everybody dies. But not every day. Not today. Some days are special. Some days are so, so blessed. Some days, nobody dies at all. (In the library, the Doctor walks back to the TARDIS. He stops, looking at the doors. Then he raises his hand, and stands there poised like that for a long moment. Finally he snaps his fingers. The doors open. He smiles slowly and walks in, joining Donna. Then he snaps his fingers again, and the doors close. River's voice continues over this.) Now and then, every once in a very long while, every day in a million days, when the wind stands fair, and the Doctor comes to call... everybody lives.”

    “The universe is big, its vast and complicated, and ridiculous. And sometimes, very rarely, impossible things just happen and we call them miracles. And that's the theory. Nine hundred years, never seen one yet, but this would do me.”

    “Amy Pond: 'I thought... well, I started to think you were just a madman with a box.'
    The Doctor: 'Amy Pond, there's something you better understand about me, 'cause it's important and one day your life may depend on it. [He Smiles] I am definitely a madman with a box.”

    “The Doctor: Doctor Song, you've got that face on again.
    River: What face?
    The Doctor: The "He's hot when he's clever" face.
    River: This is my normal face.
    The Doctor: Yes it is.
    River: Oh, shut up.
    The Doctor: Not a chance.”

    “He's like fire and ice and rage. He's like the night, and the storm in the heart of the sun. He's ancient and forever. He burns at the center of time and he can see the turn of the universe. And... he's wonderful. - Tim Latimer”

    “River Song: Use the stabilisers!
    The Doctor: It doesn't have stabilisers!
    River Song: The blue switches!
    The Doctor: The blue ones don't do anything, they're just... blue!
    River Song: Yes they're blue: they're the blue stabilisers! [presses the button and the TARDIS indeed stabilises] See?
    The Doctor: Yeah? Well, it's boring now, isn't it? They're boring-ers! They're blue... boring-ers!
    Amy: Doctor, how come she can fly the TARDIS?
    The Doctor: You call that flying the TARDIS? [scoffs] Ha!
    River Song: Okay, I've mapped the probability vectors, done a foldback on the temporal isometry, charted the ship to its destination and... [presses a button, the cloister bell clangs] parked us right alongside.
    The Doctor: Parked us? But we haven't landed!
    River Song: Of course we've landed; I just landed her.
    The Doctor: But it didn't make the noise.
    River Song: What noise?
    The Doctor: You know, the... [does an impression of the TARDIS materialisation sound]
    River Song: It's not supposed to make that noise. You leave the brakes on.
    The Doctor: Yes, well, it's a brilliant noise. I love that noise.”

    “The Doctor: This is bad, I don't like this. [kicks console and yells in pain] Never use force, you just embarrass yourself. Unless you're cross, in which case... always use force!
    Amy: Shall I run and get the manual?
    The Doctor: I threw it in a supernova.
    Amy: You threw the manual in a supernova? Why?

    “The Doctor: [aiming gun at the ceiling] Didn't anyone ever tell you? There's one thing you never put in a trap if you're smart. If you value your continued existence, if you have any plans about seeing tomorrow, there's one thing you never, ever put in a trap.
    Angel Bob: And what would that be, sir?

    The Doctor: Go to your room! Go to your room! I mean it. I'm very, very angry with you. I'm very, very cross! GO! TO! YOUR! ROOM! [The children lurch away and obey him.] I'm really glad that worked. Those would have been terrible last words.”

    The Doctor: Achieve? We're not achieving anything. We're just hanging, it's nice in here: consoles; comfy chairs; a forest... how's things with you?
    Angel Bob: The Angels are feasting, sir. Soon we will be able to absorb enough power to consume this vessel, this world, and all the stars and worlds beyond.
    The Doctor: Yeah, but we've got comfy chairs. Did I mention?
    Angel Bob: We have no need for comfy chairs.
    The Doctor: [amused] I made him say 'comfy chairs'.”

    The Doctor: So was the swimming pool.”

    “When you're a kid, they tell you it's all... grow up. Get a job. Get married. Get a house. Have a kid, and that's it. But the truth is, the world is so much stranger than that. It's so much darker. And so much madder. And so much better.”

    Idris Hopper: Have you got an appointment?
    The Doctor: No, just an old friend passing by, bit of a surprise. Can't wait to see her face!
    Idris Hopper: Well, she's just having a cup of tea.
    The Doctor: Just go in there and tell her "the Doctor" would like to see her.
    Idris Hopper: "The Doctor" who?
    The Doctor: Just "The Doctor". Tell her exactly that, "The Doctor".
    Idris Hopper: Hang on a tic.
    [Idris goes inside. There is the sound of a teacup smashing and Idris returns.]
    Idris Hopper: The Lord Mayor says "thank you f-for popping by." She'd love to have a chat, but, um, she's up to her eyes in paperwork. Perhaps you would like to make an appointment for next week...
    The Doctor: [happily] She's climbing out the window, isn't she?
    Idris Hopper: Yes, she is.”
