  • Steven Moffat Quote #5

    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.

  • Steven Moffat Quote #6

    Brainy's the new sexy.

  • Steven Moffat Quote #7

    Clara Oswald: This is just a dream, but very clever people can hear dreams. So please, just listen. I know you're afraid, but being afraid is all right, because didn't anybody ever tell you fear is a superpower? Fear can make you faster and cleverer and stronger.

    And one day, you'll come back to this barn and on that day you're going to be very afraid indeed. But that's ok because if you're very wise and very strong, fear doesn't have to make you cruel or cowardly. Fear can make you kind.

    It doesn't matter if there's nothing under the bed or in the dark, so long as you know it's ok to be afraid of it. You're always going to be afraid, even if you learn to hide it. Fear is like a companion, a constant companion, always there. But that's ok, because fear can bring us together.

    Fear can bring you home.

    I'm going to leave you with something just so you always remember: Fear makes companions of us all. -Listen, Doctor Who, episode 8.4

  • Steven Moffat Quote #8

    Come on, Rory! It isn't rocket science, it's just quantum physics!
    -The Doctor (Matt Smith)

  • Steven Moffat Quote #9

    Creatures from another world, only statues when you see them. Lonely Assassins, that's what they used to be called. No one quite knows where they came from, but they're as old as the Universe, or very nearly. And they have survived this long because they have the most perfect defence system ever evolved. They are Quantum Locked. They don't exist when they are being observed. The moment they are seen by any other living creature they freeze into rock. No choice, it's a fact of their biology. In the sight of any living thing, they literally turn into stone. And you can't kill a stone. Of course, a stone can't kill you either, but then you turn your head away. Then you blink. Then, oh yes, it can. That's why they cover their eyes. They're not weeping, they can't risk looking at each other. Their greatest asset is their greatest curse. They can never be seen. Loneliest creatures in the Universe. And I'm sorry. I am very, very sorry. It's up to you now. Don't blink. Don't even blink. Blink and you're dead. They are fast. Faster than you can believe. Don't turn your back, don't look away, and DON'T blink. Good luck.

  • Steven Moffat Quote #10

    Demons run when a good man goes to war.
    Night will fall and drown the sun,
    When a good man goes to war.
    Friendship dies and true love lies,
    Night will fall and the dark will rise,
    When a good man goes to war.
    Demons run, but count the cost.
    The battle's won but the child is lost.

  • Steven Moffat Quote #11

    Don't blink

  • Steven Moffat Quote #12

    Don't play games with me! You just killed someone I like, that is not a safe place to stand! I'm the Doctor, and you're in the biggest library in the Universe. Look me up.

  • Steven Moffat Quote #13

    E’ difficile parlare dell’importanza di un eroe immaginario.
    Ma gli eroi sono importanti. Gli eroi ci dicono qualcosa di noi stessi. I libri di storia ci dicono cosa siamo soliti essere, i documentari ci dicono chi siamo ora, ma gli eroi ci dicono chi vogliamo essere.
    E molti dei nostri eroi mi deprimono.
    Quando hanno creato questo particolare eroe, non gli hanno dato una pistola, gli hanno dato un cacciavite per sistemare le cose.
    Non gli hanno dato un carro armato o una nave da guerra o un X-Wing, gli hanno dato una cabina telefonica per poterlo chiamare in caso di pericolo.
    E non gli hanno dato un superpotere o delle orecchie a punta o un raggio laser, gli hanno dato un cuore in più.
    Gli hanno dato due cuori.
    E questa è una cosa straordinaria.
    Non ci sarà mai un tempo in cui non avremo bisogno di un eroe come il Dottore.

  • Steven Moffat Quote #14

    Fascinatingly confident, rude people are great.

  • Steven Moffat Quote #15

    Hello, old friend. And here we are. You and me, on the last page. By the time you read these words, Rory and I will be long gone. So know that we lived well and were very happy. And above all else, know that we will love you always. Sometimes I do worry about you though. I think once we're gone you won't be coming back here for awhile. And you might be alone. Which you should never be. Don't be alone, Doctor. And do one more thing for me. There's a little girl waiting in a garden. She's going to wait a long while, so she's going to need a lot of hope. Go to her. Tell her a story. Tell her that if she's patient, the days are coming that she'll never forget. Tell her she'll go to see and fight pirates. She'll fall in love with a man who'll wait two thousand years to keep her safe. Tell her she'll give hope to the greatest painter who ever lived. And save a whale in outer space. Tell her, this is the story of Amelia Pond. And this is how it ends.

  • Steven Moffat Quote #16

    Heroes are important. Heroes tell us who we want to be but when they made this particular hero they didn’t give him a gun, they gave him a screwdriver to fix things. They didn’t give him a tank or a warship or an X-Wing, they gave him a call box from which you can call for help and they didn’t give him a superpower or a heat-ray, they gave him an extra heart. And that’s extraordinary. There will never come a time when we don’t need a hero like the doctor.

  • Steven Moffat Quote #17

    Hitler: Thank you, whoever you are. I think you just saved my life.
    The Doctor: Believe me... It was an accident.

  • Steven Moffat Quote #18

    I can't see what's wrong about assuming intelligence in your audience and what's bad news about being rewarded for assuming that.

  • Steven Moffat Quote #19

    I don't know. I can't tell the future I just work there.

  • Steven Moffat Quote #20

    I don't think, generally speaking, people become writers because they were the really good, really cool, attractive kid in class. I'll be honest. This is our revenge for people who were much better looking and more popular than us. I was a bit like that, I suppose.

  • Steven Moffat Quote #21

    I think that's the way people absorb television. All the explanations in Doctor Who are there if that's your bag, but they're not essential to your enjoyment of it. An awful lot of storytelling isn't really about making people understand — it's about making people care.

  • Steven Moffat Quote #22

    I'd forgotten not all victories are about saving the universe.

  • Steven Moffat Quote #23

    I'll be a story in your head. That's okay. We're all stories in the end. Just make it a good one, eh? 'Cause it was, you know. It was the best. The daft old man who stole a magic box and ran away. Did I ever tell you that I stole it? Well I borrowed it. I was always going to take it back.

  • Steven Moffat Quote #24

    If it’s time to go, remember what you’re leaving. Remember the best.

  • Steven Moffat Quote #25

    It's a funny thing about stories. It doesn't feel like you make them up, more like you find them. You type and type and you know you haven't got it yet, because somewhere out there, there's that perfect thing -- the unexpected ending that was always going to happen. That place you've always been heading for, but never expected to go.

  • Steven Moffat Quote #26

    Kathy Nightingale: What's good about sad?

    Sally Sparrow: It's happy for deep people.

  • Steven Moffat Quote #27

    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.

  • Steven Moffat Quote #28

    Never ignore a coincidence. Unless you're busy, in which case, always ignore a coincidence.

  • Steven Moffat Quote #29

    Never knowingly be serious. Rule 27.

  • Steven Moffat Quote #30

    Never run when you're scared. Rule 7.
