“Are you my mummy?”

“Oh, you are beautiful! No really, you are, you’re gorgeous! Space-age clockwork, I love it, I’ve got chills! Listen, I mean this from the heart- and by the way, count those- it would be a crime, it would be an act of vandalism to disassemble you. But that won’t stop me.”

“Don’t blink. Blink and you’re dead. Don’t turn your back. Don’t look away. And don’t blink. Good Luck. ”

“What have you done to my TARDIS? You’ve changed the desktop theme, haven’t you? What’s this one? Coral? It’s worse than the leopard skin.”

“Your eyes. You’re younger than I’ve ever seen you.”

“Everyone knows that everyone dies. And nobody knows it like the doctor. But I do think that all the skies in all the worlds might just turn dark, if he ever accepts it.”

“Amy Pond, there’s something you’d better understand about me cause it’s important, and one day your life may depend on it: I am definitely a mad man with a box!”

“You look human.”  “No, you look Timelord. We came first.”

“A needle in a haystack.”  “A needle that looks like hay. A haylike needle of death. A haylike needle of death in a haystack of… statues. No, yours is fine.”

“Hello, Doctor? Angel Bob here, sir.”

“Hello, Stonehenge! Who takes the Pandorica takes the Universe! But, bad news everyone, ’cause guess who! Ha! Except, you lot, you’re all whizzing about, it’s really very distracting. Could you all just stay still a minute because
[shouts louder] *I* *am* *talking*! [all ships stop] Now, the question for the hour is, “Who’s got the Pandorica?” Answer: I do. Next question: “Who’s coming to take it from me?” Come on, look at me! No plan, no backup, no weapons worth a damn, oh, and something else: I don’t have anything to lose! So, if you’re sitting up there in your silly little space ships with all your silly little guns, and you’ve got any plans on taking the Pandorica tonight, just remember who’s standing in your way! Remember every black day I ever stopped you, and then, *and then*, do the smart thing! [pause] Let somebody else try first.”

“It’s a fez. I wear a fez now. Fezzes are cool.”

“Sorry, Christmas Eve on a rooftop, saw a chimney, my whole brain just went, ‘What the hell?’ Don’t worry; fat fellow will be doing the rounds later, I’m just scoping out the general chimney-ness.”

“…where according to Amy, there was ‘an unexpected house’.”

“Oh, this is how it all ends.  Pond flirting with herself.  True love at last.  Oh, sorry Rory.”

“I am being extremely clever up here and there’s no one to stand around looking impressed. What’s the point in having you all?”

“Oh and this is my friend River. Nice hair, clever, has her own gun. Oh, and unlike me she really doesn’t mind shooting people. I shouldn’t like that, kinda do a bit.”

“I have a message and a question. A message from the Doctor, and a question from me: *Where* *is* *my* *wife*?  Oh, don’t give me those blank looks. The Twelfth Cyber Legion monitors this entire quadrant. You hear everything. So you tell me what I need to know. You tell me now, and I’ll be on my way.”  “What is the Doctor’s message?”  [outside, the fleet begins exploding, startling the Cybermen] “Would you like me to repeat the question?”

“You’ve got a time machine, I’ve got a gun. What the hell. Let’s kill Hitler!”

“But you’re a fool nonetheless. It’s all still waiting for you: the fields of Trenzalore, the fall of the Eleventh, and the question!”  “Goodbye, Dorium!”   [as Doctor exits] “The first question! The question that must never be answered, hidden in plain sight. The question you’ve been running from all your life. Doctor who? Doctor who? Doc-tor *who*?”
