      The moment I knew I was going to enjoy NuWho just at much as classic:

    “Every great decision creates ripples, like a huge boulder dropped in a lake. The ripples merge and rebound off the banks in unforeseeable ways. The heavier the decision, the larger the waves, the more uncertain the consequence.”

    Or basically anything 7th said

    Amy, you need to start trusting me. Its never been more important.

    But you don’t always tell me the truth.

    If I always told you the truth, I wouldn’t need you to trust me.

      11 was so menacing sometimes, in the best way.

      Madame Kovarian : The anger of a good man is not a problem. Good men have too many rules.

      The Doctor : Good men don’t need rules. Today is not the day to find out why I have so many.

    “The very powerful and the very stupid have one thing in common.
    They don’t alter their views to fit the facts. They alter the facts to fit their views.”
    -Tom Baker, The Face of Evil, Season 14, Episode 16.


    “You know, you’re a classic example of the inverse ratio between the size of the mouth and the size of the brain.”

    Maybe not favourite but one of them anyways,

    Tom Baker S17E14 Nightmare of Eden, part 2 according to IMDb.

    Guard: …who do you work for?

    Doctor: Work for? I don’t work for anybody.I’m just having fun.

    I never hear this one mentioned but I think it sums up the Doctor perfectly.

    “Life is a weird way that nature has found to keep meat fresh” I don’t remember the exact phrasing, but it’s close.

    "Winning?! Is that what you think it’s about? I’m not trying to win! I’m not doing this because I want to beat someone, or because I hate someone, or because, because I want to blame someone. It’s not because it’s fun and God knows it’s not because it’s easy. It’s not even because it works, because it hardly ever does. I do what I do because it’s right! Because it’s decent! And above all, it’s kind. It’s just that. Just kind."

    Words to live by.

    Madge: Lily and Cyril’s father—my husband—is dead and they don’t know yet because if I tell them now then Christmas will always be what took their father away from them, and no one should have to live like that. Of course when the Christmas period is over I shall… I don’t know why I keep shouting at them.

    The Doctor: Because every time you see them happy you remember how sad they’re going to be. And it breaks your heart. Because what’s the point in them being happy now if they’re going to be sad later. The answer is, of course, because they a re going to be sad later.
