DOCTOR: 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. If I run away today, good people will die. If I stand and fight, some of them might live. Maybe not many, maybe not for long. Hey, you know, maybe there's no point in any of this at all, but it's the best I can do, so I'm going to do it. And I will stand here doing it till it kills me. You're going to die too, some day. How will that be? Have you thought about it? What would you die for? Who I am is where I stand. Where I stand, is where I fall. Stand with me. These people are terrified. Maybe we can help, a little. Why not, just at the end, just be kind?

DOCTOR: The way I see it, every life is a pile of good things and bad things. The good things don’t always soften the bad things, but vice versa, the bad things don’t always spoil the good things or make them unimportant.

— Eleventh Doctor, Vincent and the Doctor

DOCTOR: Everybody lives, Rose. Just this once, everybody lives!

— Ninth Doctor, The Doctor Dances

MASTER: You are indeed a worthy opponent. It's what gives your destruction its piquancy.

— The Rani, The Mark of the Rani

MASTER: I know this is going to be hard to believe, Doctor, but for once I mean you no harm.

DOCTOR: Like Alice, I try to believe three impossible things before breakfast. Go on.

DOCTOR: You know how it is; you put things off for a day and next thing you know, it’s a hundred years later.

— Fifth Doctor, Arc of Infinity

ADRIC: Now I'll never know if I was right.

— Adric, Earthshock

DOCTOR: An apple a day keeps the, er... no, never mind.

— Fifth Doctor, Kinda
