9 has so many good quotes for this
I was literally coming into this thread to put this one. Absolutey one of the best lines in Doctor Who ever.
Definitely. If they had to end Doctor Who, that was the quote to end it on. Always loved that one.
“You mean you’re deliberately choosing to go on the run from your own people in a rackety old TARDIS?”
“Why not? After all, that’s how it all started!”
and:
“You’re serious aren’t you?”
“About what I do, yes. Not necessarily about the way I do it.”
I’m going to reveal something mind-blowing: Doctor Who isn’t real. It’s all a fictional story. And that’s why the best quote is:
"We’re all just stories in the end.
Why is everyone insisting upn destroying my dreams of conquest today!!!
“There’s no point being grown up if you can’t be childish sometimes”
“Name - the Doctor. Occupation - not a doctor. Current status - just passing by. Employer - myself. Address - that blue box over there. Now, if you don’t mind, I just got snowmanned, and I would like to go home.”
Really captures the doctor as a character, I think
“There are times, Doctor, when you sorely try my patience.”
I wish this wasn’t true for a lot of fandom. I wish everyone could love it all (although I know that’s never going to happen) - it would make being online a much nicer place sometimes (except here, of course, we’re all gorgeous here )
One I’ve always enjoyed (from a comedic standpoint) that I think does sum up a good part of the show is when the Doctor is introducing himself to Perkins in Mummy on the Orient Express:
DOCTOR: The Doctor. Nosey parker.
“Yes, it all started out as a mild curiosity in a junkyard, and now it’s turned out to be quite a, quite a great spirit of adventure, don’t you think?”
A great line and something to love The Sensorites for.
“It’s them aliens again!”
- Wilfred Mott, The Sontaran Stratagem, Episode 4, Series 4,
“Nobody important. Blimey, that’s amazing. Do you know, in nine hundred years of time and space, I’ve never met anyone who wasn’t important before.”
