Doctor Who (2005) – Series Quotes

– When you love the Doctor, it's like loving the stars themselves. You don't expect a sunset to admire you back. And if I happen to find myself in danger, let me tell you, the Doctor is not stupid enough, or sentimental enough, and he is certainly not in love enough to find himself standing in it with me!
– [whisper] Hello, sweetie.

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
The fight goes on but what’s it for
When a good man goes to war

Now rise the sun, now dawn the day
When good man run and women stay
When battle’s done and nothing’s won
It’s a woman’s work to say
Well then, soldier, how goes the day?

– Oh, you're not, are you...? Tell me you're not archaeologists.
– Got a problem with archaeologists?
– I'm a time traveller. I point and laugh at archaeologists.
– Ah! [extending her hand for the Doctor to shake] Professor River Song. Archaeologist.

– They've gone into warp drive. We're losing them. Stay close.
– I'm trying!
– Use the stabilizers.
– It doesn't have stabilizers!
– The blue switches.
– The blue switches don't do anything! They're just blue.
– Yes, they're blue. They're the blue stabilizers! See?
– Yeah. Well, just boring now, isn't it? They're boringers. They're blue boringers.
– Doctor, how come she can fly the TARDIS?
– You call that flying the TARDIS? Ha!

– You've got that face on again.
– What face?
– The he's-hot-when-he's-clever face.
– This is my normal face.

Afterward by Amelia Williams.
Hello, old friend. And here we are, you and me, on the last page. By the time you read these words, Rory and I will be long gone. So know that we lived well, and were very happy. And above all else, know that we will love you always. Sometimes I do worry about you, though. I think once we're gone, you won't be coming back here for a while, and you might be alone, which you should never be. Don't be alone, Doctor. And do one more thing for me. There's a little girl waiting in a garden. She's going to wait a long while, so she's going to need a lot of hope. Go to her. Tell her a story. Tell her that if she's patient, the days are coming that she'll never forget. Tell her he'll go to sea and fight pirates. She'll fall in love with a man who'll wait 2,000 years to keep her safe. Tell her she'll give hope to the greatest painter who ever lived and save a whale in outer space. Tell her, this is the story of Amelia Pond. And this how it ends.

'But what's he like? The Doctor?'
'He said "run"

— Hey, is there someone here?
— Who's there?
— I'm the Doctor!
— Doctor?! No, no, I don't think so. No, the right word is not, maybe you are the Doctor, but I am the same Doctor, one might say — ORIGINAL!

– It all just disappears, doesn't it? Everything you are, gone in a moment, like breath on a mirror. Any moment now... He's a-comin'.
– The Doctor.
– You. You are the Doctor.
– Yep, and I always will be. But times change, and so must I.
– Amelia!
– Who's Amelia?
– The first face this face saw. We all change. When you think about it, we're all different people all through our lives, and that's okay, that's good, you gotta keep moving, so long as you remember all the people that you used to be. I will not forget one line of this. Not one day. I swear. I will always remember when the Doctor was me.

– You'll see me again quite soon, when the Pandorica opens.
– The Pandorica. That's a fairy tale.
– Oh, Doctor. Aren't we all?

Rule one: The Doctor lies.

If you hear whisperers,
Then know that they are close.
If you hear whisperers,
Turn your ear away.
Don't listen to these whisperers,
Anyway time of day.
Otherwise they will shut up
And look at you...

– Tell me what you knew, Doctor, or I'll smack you so hard you regenerate.
– I knew that eggs are not bombs. I know they don't usually destroy their nests. Essentially what I knew was: you would always make the best choice. I had faith that you'd always make the right choice.
– Honestly, d'you have music playin' in your head when you say rubbish like that?
– It wasn't my decision, I told you.
– Shut up! I am so sick of listening to you!
– Well, I didn't do it for Courtney. I didn't know what was going to happen. D'you think I'm lying?
– I don't know. I don't know! If you didn't do it for her, I mean... D'know what? It was cheap. It was pathetic. No, no, no, it was patronising! That was you patting us on the back, saying "You're big enough to go to the shops yourself now. Go on, toddle along".
– No, that was me allowing you to make a choice about your own future. That was me... respecting you.
– Oh my god, really? Was it? Yeah, well respected is not how I feel!
– Right, OK.
– I nearly didn't press that button! I nearly got it wrong. That was you, my friend, making me scared... Making me feel like a bloody idiot.
– Language!
– Oh, don't you ever tell me to mind my language! Don't you ever tell me to take the stabilisers off my bike! And don't you dare lump me in with the rest of all the little humans that you think are so tiny and silly and predictable! You walk our Earth, Doctor, you breath our air, you make us your friend. That is your moon, too, Doctor, and you can damn well help us when we need it!
– I was helping.
– What, by clearing off?
– Yes.
– Yeah? Well, clear off! Go On! Get back in your lonely... your lonely bloody TARDIS, and you don't come back — and you don't come back.
– Clara! Clara!
– You go away! And you don't come back. OK? You go a long way away!

Now I wear fezzes. Fezzes is cool.
