DAVROS: Doctor!

DOCTOR: What? Yes?

DAVROS: Do you believe your puny efforts can change the course of destiny?

DOCTOR: Are you really?

SHARREL: We function logically.

DOCTOR: My condolences to you.

DAVROS: Since my entombment, I have no knowledge of the advancement of my Daleks. Of course they have achieved great things.

DOCTOR: Oh yes, oh yes. They've wreaked havoc and destruction, destroyed countless innocent lives

DAVROS: Only the beginning! Now I have returned, the campaign will begin in earnest. I have slept but now I have awakened, and the universe will be sorry.

DOCTOR: Davros, you. I have slept but now I have awakened and the universe will be. You're misquoting Napoleon! One day I'll tell you what happened to him, too.

DAVROS: Supreme Dalek. Pah. That is a title I shall dispute most vigorously. I created the Daleks. It is I who will guide their destiny. I am the Supreme Commander!
