“The Eaters of Light” quotes from Doctor Who

Shh. Does everybody hear that? Do you know what that sound was?

What?

(yelling) That was the sound of my PATIENCE shattering into a billion little pieces!!! Now, there are only two things I need to know: where is my friend, and what destroyed the Roman army???

Are you sulking?

I'm remembering the dead.

Ah, right. Well, save that for old age.

They're dead because of me.

You know, every moment you waste wallowing about in unhappy thought means more of the living are going to join them. If you want to win a war, remember this: it’s not about you. Believe me, I know. Time to grow up. Time to fight your fight.

Sir, I must protest in the strongest, most upset terms possible! Don't make me go squeaky-voiced.

See, that's what I'm trying to teach you, Missy. You understand the universe, you see it and you grasp it, but you've never learned to hear the music.

I don't even know why I'm crying. Why? Why do I keep doing that now?

I don't know. Maybe you're trying to impress me.

Yes. Probably some devious plan. That sounds about right.

The alternative would be much worse.

Really?

The alternative is that this is for real, and it's time for us to become friends again.

Do you think so?

I don't know. That's the trouble with hope. It's hard to resist.
