DOCTOR: I'm here following up on reports that you and Cardinal Richelieu have turned against the one true god. Confess your sins, wretch! Or I shall get vengeful and smite you with lightning bolts!

— Twelfth Doctor, Terror of the Cabinet Noir

JULIE: Gargoyles?!

DOCTOR: Worse. Garrulous gargoyles. Try saying that after a couple of pan-galactic gargoyleblasters.

JULIE: My more discreet admirers say I've led a colourful life. My detractors, of whom, I'm proud to say, I have many, accuse me of leading a bawdy, debauched, scandalous existence, most unbecoming of a young lady. To them, I say... guilty as charged.

— Julie d'Aubigny, Terror of the Cabinet Noir

DOCTOR: You seriously think I'd consider you as a travelling companion?

JULIE: Oh, I wouldn't be your companion, Doctor. You'd be mine. Well, more of a coachman or butler.

JULIE: Where are you taking me?

DOCTOR: To a place of wit and wonder and infinite possibilities. To a phantasmagoria of knowledge and adventure, philosophical debate and scientific discovery. To the greatest place on any world in any galaxy. The library.

JULIE: When I'm an old maid in my bed, I'll take up reading. For now, I'll stick with sword-fighting, singing and carousing.

— Julie d'Aubigny, Terror of the Cabinet Noir

DOCTOR: Earlier versions of me might disagree, but opera's just not my thing. It's all tubby men and women in dodgy Viking costumes yodelling at each other, if you ask me.

— Twelfth Doctor, Terror of the Cabinet Noir

DOCTOR: As an old friend once said, there's something rotten in the state of Denmark.

JULIE: Denmark? We're in France. Though I'm not surprised you can smell over borders with a nose like that. I was scared you were going to stab me with it during our duel.
