DOCTOR: He'd have loved you.
ANNALORE: Who?
DOCTOR: The Doctor. An aggressor turned ally? An invasion foiled, all due to reason and debate. Not a single shot fired! No one dead! No one even injured! Congratulations. He's be proud of every single one of you.
ANNALORE: Thank you.
DOCTOR: Pity he's dead.

DOCTOR: I killed the Doctor for the notion of peace! For the notion that tyranny and evil must be fought, that the continued freedom of others was worth more than his life. And he wasn't the only one! So yes, I hope if I'm ever given the chance to end this war, I'd take it. Whatever the cost. However cruel it is in that moment, I pray I'm weak enough to sink to the level of my enemies. That I reject all I've ever stood for so that everything I've spent my lives defending can flourish again.
ALISTAIR: And if you have to kill millions to do it?
DOCTOR: Then I kill millions. And I pray to whatever deities are left in creation that it kills me too.
ALISTAIR DONOVAN: Say something else.
WAR DOCTOR: There's nothing I can say.
ALISTAIR DONOVAN: Do something then!
WAR DOCTOR: Nothing to be done.
ALISTAIR DONOVAN: You're the Doctor!
WAR DOCTOR: No. I'm just what's left.
The prophecies of old foretold a war across the stars.
The cosmos torn asunder. Every planet left with scars.
From Skaro to Kasterborous, and Villengard as well —
Some know it as the Time War, but the Time Lords call it Hell.
The seven deaths of Davros, and the slaughter of Skull Moon.
The Neverwhen, the Never-weres, the Never-Gone-Too-Soon.
The war raged on for eons, and it’s only just begun,
Fragmenting space and causing time itself to be undone.
Until a man is born upon the barren sands of Karn,
Until that man confronts himself twice over, in a barn.
Until the Daleks breach the second city, and it falls.
Until that man engraves the words “No More” into the walls.
I am that man, and I will take this Moment to avow:
If once there was a Doctor, there is not a Doctor now.
