A dream? Really, Doctor, you'll be consulting the entrails of a sheep next.

The Brigadier, in "The Time Monster"

You know, Doctor, you're quite the most infuriating man I've ever met.

Jo, in "The Time Monster"

"I feel like the back end of a pantomime horse."

"Very suitable for a keen young man like you."

"Eh? Come again?"

"Starting at the bottom."

Stuart and Dr Ingram, in "The Time Monster"

Do you know he has an excellent brain, that man... though a little pedestrian. But oh dear, what a bore the fellow is!

The Master, describing the Doctor, in "The Time Monster"

"Empirical?"

"That, Sgt. Benton, means that I haven't got a clue what I'm doing."

Benton and Dr Ingram, in "The Time Monster"

"You're mad... paranoid!"

"Who isn't? The only difference is that I'm just a little more honest than the rest."

The Doctor and the Master, in "The Time Monster"

Oh, those are my subconscious thoughts. I shouldn't listen to them too hard if I were you; I'm not all that proud of some of them.

The Doctor, in "The Time Monster"

"E equals m C cubed."

"Squared."

"What?"

"E = m C squared, not cubed."

"Not in the extratemporal physics of the time vortex."

Dr Percival and the Master, in "The Time Monster"

"It doesn't work."

"<dryly> You astound me."

The Doctor and the Brigadier, in "The Time Monster"

"The thing is, Doctor, is there anything I can do?"

"Yes, pass me a silicon rod, will you?" <stirs his tea with it>

The Brigadier and the Doctor, in "The Three Doctors"

"Well, Sergeant? Aren't you going to say that it's bigger on the inside than it is on the outside? Everybody else does."

"It's pretty obvious, isn't it?"

The Doctor and Sgt. Benton, in "The Three Doctors"

"Nothing to do with you surprises me any more."

"Thank you for the compliment."

Sgt. Benton and the Doctor, in "The Three Doctors"

"So why don't you consult those all-powerful superiors of yours?"

"Oh, right now they're far from superior. That's why they left it up to me and me and me."

The Brigadier and the Doctor, in "The Three Doctors"

I can see you've been doing the TARDIS up a bit. I don't like it.

The second Doctor, in "The Three Doctors"

"What are we going to do now?"

"Keep it confused, feed it with useless information. I wonder if I have a television set handy?"

Sgt. Benton and the second Doctor, in "The Three Doctors"

"Look, if you can't reverse the energy drain, the fabric of the entire Universe could be torn apart."

"What if it is? It will make an interesting spectacle."

The Doctor and Omega, in "The Three Doctors"

Power is the only freedom that I seek.

Omega, in "The Three Doctors"

"If only I could find my recorder, I could play you a little something to pass the time."

"We should be thankful for small mercies."

The second Doctor and the Brigadier, in "The Three Doctors"

We're talking about one of the most powerful blokes in the cosmos. "Nobble" him?

The Doctor, in "The Three Doctors"

The generators were built by the old Eternity Perpetual company. They were designed to last forever; that's why the company went bankrupt.

Vorg, in "Carnival of Monsters"

The Tribunal is not deliberating, the Tribunal is arguing. Quite nonsensically, if I may say so.

The Doctor, in "Carnival of Monsters"

One has no wish to be devoured by alien monstrosities, even in the cause of political progress.

One of the Tribunal, in "Carnival of Monsters"

"Put your finger on there a minute, will you?"

"Here?" <electrical sparks fly> "Ouch!"

"Good; that must be the live terminal."

Vorg and Shirna, in "Carnival of Monsters"

But Doctor, it's exactly your cup of tea. The fellow's bright green, apparently, and dead.

The Brigadier, in "The Green Death"

"Do I have to order you, Doctor?"

"I wouldn't advise it."

The Brigadier and the Doctor, in "The Green Death"

"Your paper on DNA synthesis was quite remarkable for your age."

"A promising youngster, huh?"

"No, no; I mean for the age that you live in."

The Doctor and Professor Jones, in "The Green Death"

Brigadier, a straight line may be the shortest distance between two points, but it is by no means the most interesting.

The Doctor, in "The Time Monster"

"Mark you, it was quite a hairy trip. Good old TARDIS was almost done for -- 'time ram'..."

"Oh, don't tell me. The TARDIS was attacked by a randy sheep with a clock for a face?"

The Doctor and Sarah, in The Paradise of Death

"Look, what's the use of employing the finest investigative journalist in the business --"

"Pause for hollow laughter."

Sarah and Clarinda, in The Paradise of Death

"You see, it's been an age-old custom for at least five years that..."

Freeth, in The Paradise of Death

"Do you know -- yesterday I saw a fox in Piccadilly?"

"And nightingales in Berkeley Square?"

Sgt. Yates and Sarah, in "Invasion of the Dinosaurs"

Well, don't just stand there, Sergeant Benton. Go put yourself under arrest.

The Brigadier, in "Invasion of the Dinosaurs"

"I see."

"Do you?"

"No."

Sarah and the Doctor, in "Death to the Daleks"

"It's rather a pity, in a way. Now the universe is down to 699 wonders."

The Doctor, after the destruction of the city, in "Death to the Daleks"

When everything is new, can anything be a surprise?

Cho-je, in "Planet of the Spiders"

"Tommy, you're normal! You're just like everybody else!"

"I sincerely hope not."

Sarah and Tommy, in "Planet of the Spiders"

The ceremonial gift merely symbolizes friendship. We have no need for symbols, you and I.

K'anpo, in "Planet of the Spiders"

"I know who you are now."

"You were always a little slow on the uptake, my boy."

The Doctor and K'anpo, in "Planet of the Spiders"

I had to face my fear, Sarah. That was more important than just going on living.

The Doctor, in "Planet of the Spiders"

"This is the abbot of-- no, it's Cho-je. I mean, it looks like Cho-je -- but it's really K'anpo Rinpoche ... I think."

"Thank you. That makes everything quite clear."

Sarah and the Brigadier, in "Planet of the Spiders"

Why is a mouse when it spins?

The Doctor, in "Robot"

You may be a doctor, but I am the Doctor. The definite article, one might say.

The Doctor, in "Robot"

"Believe me, Doctor, the place is impregnable."

"Never cared much for the word 'impregnable'. Sound a bit too much like 'unsinkable'."

"What's wrong with 'unsinkable'?"

"Nothing, as the iceberg said to the Titanic."

The Brigadier, the Doctor, and Harry in "Robot"

"Well naturally enough the only country that could be trusted with such a role was Great Britain."

"Well, naturally. I mean, the rest were all foreigners."

The Brigadier and the Doctor, in "Robot"

The trouble with computers, of course, is that they're very sophisticated idiots.

The Doctor, in "Robot"

You know, just once I'd like to meet an alien menace that wasn't immune to bullets.

The Brigadier, in "Robot"

There's no point in being grown-up if you can't be childish sometimes.

The Doctor, in "Robot"

"For interrogation? Good, I enjoy interrogations."

"Yes, you look the type."

General Raven and the Doctor, in "Genesis of the Daleks"

"And Davros is never wrong about anything."

"Then he must be exceptional; even I'm occasionally wrong about some things."

Ronson and the Doctor, in "Genesis of the Daleks"

Just touch these two strands together, and the Daleks are finished. Have I that right?

The Doctor, in "Genesis of the Daleks"

But the final responsibility is mine, and mine alone. Listen; if someone who knew the future pointed out a child to you, and told you that that child would grow up totally evil, to be a ruthless dictator who would destroy millions of lives, could you then kill that child?

The Doctor, in "Genesis of the Daleks"

Failed? No, not really. You see, I know that although the Daleks will create havoc and destruction for millions of years, I know also that out of their evil must come something good.

The Doctor, in "Genesis of the Daleks"

Oil, an emergency? About time the people who run this planet of yours realize that to be dependent upon a mineral slime just doesn't make sense. Now, the energizing of hydrogen---

The Doctor, in "Terror of the Zygons"

"As far as we know, the sea was calm and empty."

"It may be calm, but it's never empty."

Huckle and the Doctor, in "Terror of the Zygons"

"Doctor, are you a party to this militaristic nonsense?"

"I'm not a party to any kind of nonsense, your Grace."

The Duke of Forgill and the Doctor, in "Terror of the Zygons"

I underestimated his intelligence, but he underestimated the power of organic crystallography.

Broton, in "Terror of the Zygons"

It takes all sorts to make a galaxy.

The Doctor, in "Terror of the Zygons"

The Cabinet's accepted my report, and the whole affair is now completely closed. ... A fifty-foot monster can't swim up the Thames and attack a large building without some people noticing, but you know what politicians are like.

The Brigadier, in "Terror of the Zygons"

You and I are scientists, Professor. We buy our privilege to experiment at the cost of total responsibility.

The Doctor, in "Planet of Evil"

"Victoria wore [that dress]. She travelled with me for a time."

"Well, as long as Albert didn't wear it."

The Doctor and Sarah, in "The Pyramids of Mars"

I'm a Time Lord... I'm not a human being. I walk in eternity.

The Doctor, in "The Pyramids of Mars"

"We travel in time, Mr Scarman. I'm really from 1980."

"That is utterly preposterous, Miss Smith."

"Yes. Sorry."

Sarah and Laurence Scarman, in "The Pyramids of Mars"

"Are you telling me you don't know what year it is?"

"If I knew, I wouldn't ask. Don't be obtuse, man!"

Laurence Scarman and the Doctor, in "The Pyramids of Mars"

Well, you see, Mr Scarman, I have the advantage of being slightly ahead of you. Sometimes behind you, but normally ahead of you.

The Doctor, in "The Pyramids of Mars"

"I see."

"I'm sure you don't, but it's very nice of you to try."

Laurence Scarman and the Doctor, in "The Pyramids of Mars"

"Where are we?"

"Hiding."

"Where?"

"A priest's hole."

"In a Victorian Gothic folly? Nonsense."

"You're so pedantic at a time like this? What does it matter?"

The Doctor, Sarah, and Laurence Scarman, in "The Pyramids of Mars"

That's the world as Sutekh would leave it: a desolate planet circling a dead sun.

The Doctor, in "The Pyramids of Mars"

Deactivating a generator loop without the correct key, it's like repairing a watch with a hammer and chisel. One false move and you'll never know the time again.

The Doctor, in "The Pyramids of Mars"

Evil? Your evil is my good. I am Sutekh the destroyer. Where I tread I leave nothing but dust and darkness. I find that good.

Sutekh, in "The Pyramids of Mars"

"That's too obvious."

"Well, a door handle usually is."

"Not in a jail."

The Doctor and Sarah, in "The Pyramids of Mars"

"But I thought Horus was one of the good guys."

"He was an Osiran, with all their guile and ingenuity. They had dome- shaped heads and cerebrums like spiral staircases."

Sarah and the Doctor, in "The Pyramids of Mars"

My memory is getting poor. 300 years ago I would have recognized this like a shot.

The Doctor, in "The Android Invasion"

"What's this pub called?"

"The Fleur de Lis, isn't it?"

"Marie Celeste, more like."

The Doctor and Sarah, in "The Android Invasion"

Is that finger loaded?

The Doctor, in "The Android Invasion"

"So far, so good"

"Said the man when he fell from the skyscraper."

The Doctor and Sarah, in "The Android Invasion"

The best-laid plans of mice and Kraals gang aft a-gley.

The Doctor, in "The Android Invasion"

"I feel disoriented."

"This is the Disorientation Centre."

"That makes sense."

The Doctor and Sarah, in "The Android Invasion"

"Must have blacked out."

"Yes, you did. The G-force cut the blood supply to what you humans laughingly call your higher centres."

"I hate sarcasm, especially when I'm dying."

Sarah and the Doctor, in "The Android Invasion"

"So, providing we don't burn up on re-entry and aren't suffocated on the way down, we'll probably be smashed to a pulp when we land."

"Exactly. Sarah, you've put your finger on the one tiny flaw in our plan."

"Our plan? It's your plan!"

Sarah and the Doctor, in "The Android Invasion"
