DOCTOR: Love, in all its forms, is the most powerful weapon we have. Because love is a form of hope. And like hope, love abides. In the face of everything.
— Thirteenth Doctor, Demons of the Punjab
DOCTOR: I'm the Doctor.
MABLI: A doctor of medicine?
DOCTOR: Well, medicine, science, engineering, candyfloss, LEGO, philosophy, music, problems, people, hope. Mostly hope.
— The Tsuranga Conundrum
Tags: Speech
DOCTOR: Never be cruel. Never be cowardly. Hate is always foolish. Love is always wise. Always try to be nice, but never fail to be kind.
— Twelfth Doctor, Twice Upon a Time
Tags: Speech Sad
DOCTOR: Without hope. Without witness. Without reward.
— Twelfth Doctor, The Doctor Falls
FIRST DOCTOR: The Doctor? No, I don't think so! No, dear me, no! You may be a Doctor, but I am the Doctor. The original, you might say!
— First Doctor, The Doctor Falls
Tags: Sad Speech
DOCTOR: Who I am is where I stand. Where I stand is where I fall.
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?
BILL: So, the Time Lords, bit flexible on the whole man-woman thing, then, yeah?
DOCTOR: We're the most civilised civilisation in the universe. We're billions of years beyond your petty human obsession with gender and its associated stereotypes.
BILL: But you still call yourselves Time Lords?
DOCTOR: Yeah. Shut up.
— World Enough and Time
DOCTOR: Nothing’s sad until it’s over, and then everything is.
— Twelfth Doctor, Hell Bent
CURATOR: Oh, it's entirely up to you. Your choice, eh? I can only tell you what I would do if I were you. Oh, if I were you. Oh, perhaps I was you, of course. Or perhaps you are me. Congratulations.
ELEVENTH DOCTOR: Thank you very much.
CURATOR: Or perhaps it doesn't matter either way. Who knows, eh? Who knows?
— The Day of the Doctor
ROMANA: How did you know?
DOCTOR: Oh, knowing's easy. Everyone does that ad nauseam. I just sort of hope.
— State of Decay
DOCTOR: First things first?
ROMANA: Exactly.
DOCTOR: But not necessarily in that order.
— Meglos
DOCTOR: I say, what a wonderful butler. He's so violent.
— Fourth Doctor, City of Death
DOCTOR: Would you mind not standing on my chest? My hat's on fire.
— Fourth Doctor, The Androids of Tara
DOCTOR: Sometimes my brilliance astonishes even me.
— Fourth Doctor, The Invisible Enemy
DOCTOR: A straight line may be the shortest distance between two points, but it is by no means the most interesting.
— Third Doctor, The Time Warrior
DOCTOR: You, Sir, are a NITWIT!
— Third Doctor, Inferno
DOCTOR: I hate computers and refuse to be bullied by them!
— Second Doctor, The Invasion
DOCTOR: You look very nice in that dress, Victoria.
VICTORIA: Thank you. Don't you think it's a bit--
DOCTOR: A bit short? Oh, I shouldn't worry about that. Look at Jamie's.
— The Tomb of the Cybermen
DOCTOR: You know, I am so constantly outwitting the opposition, I tend to forget the delights and satisfaction of the arts, the gentle art of fisticuffs.
— First Doctor, The Romans
DOCTOR: One day, I shall come back — yes, I shall come back. Until then, there must be no regrets, no tears, no anxieties. Just go forward in all your beliefs, and prove to me that I am not mistaken in mine. Goodbye, Susan, goodbye, my dear.
— First Doctor, The Dalek Invasion of Earth
DOCTOR: I don’t make threats, but I do keep promises.
— First Doctor, The Sensorites
DOCTOR: You wanted advice you said. I never give it, never. But I might just say this to you. Always search for truth. My truth is in the stars and yours is here.
— First Doctor, The Daleks
DOCTOR: Fear makes companions of all of us.
— First Doctor, An Unearthly Child
