With Doctor Who's 50th birthday coming up, I thought I would inspire people with a list of his quotes. :)
1) “Some people live more in 20 years than others do in 80. It’s not the time that matters, it’s the person.”
2) "For some people, small, beautiful events are what life's all about."
3) "There's no point in being grown-up if you can't act childish sometimes."
4) "Courage isn't a matter of not being frightened, you know. It's being scared and doing what you have to do anyways."
5) "The good things don’t always soften the bad, but vice-versa, the bad things don’t necessarily spoil the good things and make them unimportant.”
6) “Never ignore coincidence. Unless, of course, you’re busy. In which case, always ignore coincidence.”
7) “One good solid hope is worth a cartload of certainties.”
8) “Nobody important? Blimey, that’s amazing. Do you know, in nine hundred years of time and space I’ve never met anyone who wasn’t important before.”
9) “You know when sometimes, you meet someone so beautiful – and then you actually talk to them, and five minutes later they’re as dull as a brick; but then there’s other people. And you meet them and you think, ‘Not bad, they’re okay,’ and then when you get to know them… Their face just sort of becomes them, like their personality’s written all over it, and they just – they turn into something so beautiful. Rory’s the most beautiful man I’ve ever met.”
10) “Our lives are different from anybody else’s. That’s the exciting thing. Nobody in the universe can do what we’re doing.”
11) “Your life could depend on this. Don’t blink. Don’t even blink. Blink and you’re dead. They are fast. Faster than you can believe. Don’t turn your back, don’t look away, and don’t blink! Good luck.”
12) “If it’s time to go, remember what you’re leaving. Remember the best. My friends have always been the best of me.”
13) “Go forward in all of your beliefs, and prove to me that I am not mistaken in mine.”
14) “There’s a lot of things you need to get across this universe. Warp drive… wormhole refractors… You know the thing you need most of all? You need a hand to hold.”
15) “I am and always will be the optimist. The hoper of far-flung hopes and the dreamer of improbable dreams.”
16) “When you’re a kid, they tell you it’s all… Grow up, get a job, get married, get a house, have a kid, and that’s it. But the truth is, the world is so much stranger than that. It’s so much darker. And so much madder. And so much better.”
17) “You don’t just give up. You don’t just let things happen. You make a stand! You say no! You have the guts to do what’s right, even when everyone else just runs away.”
18) “There’s always something to look at if you open your eyes!”
19) “One may suffer a world of demons for the sake of an angel.”
20) "Always take a banana to the party, Rose: bananas are good!"
And by the way, if you haven't noticed it yet, there's a Doctor Who mini game inside Google's doodle of the day. Click on the arrow and select a Doctor. Good luck.
