Quotes
-
The Doctor : Call me old fashioned, but if you really wanted peace couldn't you just stop fighting?
Lieutenent Cobb : Only when we have the Source. It will give us the power to erase every stinking Hath off the face of this planet.
The Doctor : Hang on, a second ago it was peace in our time and now you're talking about genocide!
Lieutenent Cobb : For us, that means the same thing!
The Doctor : Then you need to get yourself a better dictionary. When you do, look up genocide. You'll see a little picture of me there and the caption'll read 'over my dead body!'
-
The Doctor : What are you staring at exactly?
Jenny : You keep insisting you're not a soldier but look at you, drawing up strategies like a proper general.
The Doctor : No, I'm trying to stop the fighting.
Jenny : Isn't every soldier?
-
Jenny : And Time Lords, what are they for?
The Doctor : For? They're not for anything.
Jenny : So what do you do?
The Doctor : I travel. Through time and space.
Donna Noble : He saves worlds, rescues civilizations, defeats terrible creatures and runs a lot. Seriously, there's an outrageous amount of running involved.
The Doctor : [opens hidden door] Got it!
[shouts echo]
The Doctor : Now, what were you saying about running?
-
The Doctor : You're an echo, that's all. A Time Lord is so much more. A sum of knowledge. A code. A shared history. A shared suffering.
[pause]
The Doctor : Only it's gone now. All of it. Gone forever.
-
The Doctor : I never would... have you got that? I. Never. Would. When you start this new world... this world of human and Hath... remember that! Make the foundation of this society a man who never would!
-
The Doctor : [inside the Tardis] I don't know where we're going, but my old hand's very excited about it!
-
[after Jenny blew up the tunnel]
The Doctor : Why did you do that?
Jenny : They were trying to kill us.
The Doctor : But they've got my friend!
Jenny : Colateral damage. At least you've still got her.
[looks at Cline]
Jenny : He lost both his men. I'd say you came out ahead.
Donna Noble : Her name's Martha! And she's not collateral damage. Not for anyone. Have you got that, GI Jane?!
-
The Doctor : I'm going to stop you, Cobb. You need to know that.
General Cobb : I have an army, and the Breath of God on my side, Doctor. What do you have?
The Doctor : [points at his mind] This.
-
The Doctor : Can't extrapolate a relationship from a biological accident.
Donna Noble : Child Support agency can.
-
Jenny : So, you don't have a name either? Are you an anomaly too?
The Doctor : No.
Donna Noble : Oh come off it, you're the most anomalous bloke I've ever met.
-
The Doctor : Listen to me. The killing. After awhile it infects you. And once it does you're never rid of it.
-
Donna Noble : [referring to a soldier] Let me distract this one. I've picked up a few womanly wiles over the years.
The Doctor : Let's... save your wiles for later.
[big pause]
The Doctor : In case of emergency.
-
General Cobb : ...where to find the Source.
The Doctor : Ooh, the Source. What's that then; what's the Source? I like a Source. What is it?
General Cobb : The Breath of Life.
The Doctor : And that would be?
Cline : "In the beginning, the Great One breathed life into the universe. And then she looked at what she'd done, and she sighed."
Jenny : Hmm, 'She'; I like that.
-
Donna Noble : Not what you'd call a natural parent are you?
The Doctor : They stole a tissue sample at gunpoint and processed it. It's not what I'd call natural parenting.
-
The Doctor : Just because I share some physiological traits with simian primates doesn't make me a monkey's uncle does it?
Jenny : I'm not a monkey!
-
Lieutenent Cobb : Cline, at Arms!
Donna Noble : [Cline cocks and aims his gun at Donna and the Doctor] Oi, Oi! Alright, cool the beans, Rambo!
Lieutenent Cobb : Take them. I won't have them spreading treason. And if you try anything, Doctor, I'll see that your woman dies first.
Donna Noble : [the Doctor and Donna at the same time] I'm not his woman.
The Doctor : Oh, no no no. No, we're not a couple!
-
[as the soldiers hold them at gunpoint]
Cline : Drop your weapons!
The Doctor : [holding his arms up] We're unarmed. Look no weapons. Never any weapons, we're safe.
Carter : Look at their hands. They're clean.
Cline : Alright, process them. And fast.
[Cline keeps his weapons trained as the other two take the Doctor by force]
The Doctor : Hey! Oiyya! What's wrong with clean hands?
-
[The Doctor has had one of his arms shoved into a machine]
The Doctor : I'm guessing this thing's not about to check my blood pressure!
-
Donna Noble : So the Source could be a weapon and we've just given directions to Captain Nut-Job?
The Doctor : Oh, yes.
Donna Noble : [sighs] Not good, is it?
