DOCTOR: A tale of a woman who knows she’s going to die. But still ventures into the labyrinth, still seeks her greatest adventure. I remember all that time ago, you changed your mind to join us after listening to that piece. You don’t have to tell me anything you don’t want to, but I just wanted to say I am here for you. Whatever bad news may have come your way.

KESSICA: Most considerate, Doctor. You’ll make an old woman cry.

DOCTOR: Then cry. And I’ll cry with you.

LILY: Doctor... Pity… me!

DOCTOR: Fear me.

LILY: What?

DOCTOR: Tell this to your gods. When they punish you. When they stretch you on the neutron rack. I’m still here.

LILY: But you? You’re one little man!

DOCTOR: I am not a man! Not a human being! I am a complex space-time event! I am Lord President of Gallifrey. The Traveller from Beyond Time. I am the Sandman. The Oncoming Storm. I am the Ka Faraq Gatri. Destroyer of Worlds. And sometimes… Only sometimes… I am your worst nightmare. I am the Doctor. And I take care of my friends.
