Steven Moffat
“It's hard to talk about the importance of an imaginary hero. But heroes ARE important: Heroes tell us something about ourselves.
History tells us who we used to be, documentaries tell us who we are now; but heroes tell us who we WANT to be.
And a lot of our heroes depress me.
But when they made this particular hero, they didn't give him a gun--they gave him a screwdriver to fix things. They didn't give him a tank or a warship or an x-wing fighter--they gave him a box from which you can call for help. And they didn't give him a superpower or pointy ears or a heat-ray--they gave him an extra HEART. They gave him two hearts! And that's an extraordinary thing.
There will never come a time when we don't need a hero like the Doctor.”
― Steven Moffat

Eva Ibbotson
“Duty exists and it's real. It means sharing any gift or talent that you have with people who need it. It means not being afraid or selfish or tight-but open.”
― Eva Ibbotson, The Dragonfly Pool

Horatio Clare
“It doesn't make any sense, does it?"
"Some things don't," said the beetle, gloomily.
"Don't be so sure," Aubrey said. "Everything makes sense if you can find the right way to look at it. What we need is a new perspective.”
― Horatio Clare, Aubrey and the Terrible Yoot

Jostein Gaarder
“The force of gravity makes your planet orbit the sun, and the force of gravity from the moon pulls at the sea and makes tides rise and fall. Don't you think there must also be a force that dragged you up from the oceans and gave you eyes for seeing and a brain for thinking?'
I didn't know what to say.
'I sometimes wonder if people who don't believe this are missing an important sense,' said Mika finally.”
― Jostein Gaarder, Hello? Is Anybody There?

Nicolas de Condorcet
“The truth belongs to those who seek it, not to those who claim to own it.”
― Nicolas de Caritat marquis de Condorcet
