TV show quotes
[yelling at Steven] These are Daleks! Now you listen to me, young man, I am in charge of this situation...
Sir! Will you shut up? At least that's stopped you arguing.
Well, upon my soul!
Now look here, I don't care what happens to you, but I've got to warn Earth!
Yes, and you will have to do far more than that! If the Daleks are doing something drastic, then we have to stop the Daleks! Now will you shut up, sir? Hmm?
Great One, don't leave us! Don't let the strange beings catch you...
He's been caught! We've got to leave!
No! He said we had to...
No!
Stop! Without him, we can't reach the place of perfection!
We won't! We're going without him!
[to Katarina] Stop that or you're dead!
I can't sacrifice everything for the sake of that one girl!
Listen! Without us you wouldn't have got off Kembel at all, and nothing would be worth bothering about!
All right, so we all go back together. But without me, I doubt that you would have got this far either.
Yes, all right, but I won't let you hurt Katarina. We'll head back for Kembel as the Doctor says on the way, we may find a way to get her out of there.
You won't!
[Katarina reaches for the airlock switch] No, not that one! Katarina!
[Katarina opens the airlock. Katarina and Kirksen are swept into space to their deaths]
Katarina! [softly] Too late. She pressed the wrong button, Doctor.
She may have wanted to, dear boy. She wanted to save our lives.
[awkwardly] It... must have been quick.
I hope she's reached her Place of Perfection.
Yes, but not that way.
She didn't understand. She couldn't understand. She wanted to save our lives. And perhaps the lives of all the other beings of the Solar System. I hope she's found her Perfection. Oh, how I shall always remember her as one of the Daughters of the Gods. Yes, as one of the Daughters of the Gods.
[After being whisked away by Molecular Dessemination]
... The mice couldn't have done that!
Daleks!
You're right, Doctor. They've come.
You are surrounded. You will come with us.
I'm afraid, my friends, that the Daleks have won.
[bristling when a policeman asks if he is a British citizen]: Your ideas are too narrow, too crippled. I am a citizen of the universe, and a gentleman to boot!
(The scene where they broke the fourth wall)
Here's a toast, a happy Christmas to all of us.
The same to you, Doctor, Sara.
And incidentally, a happy Christmas to all of you at home!
Sara, where have you been?
I don't know. But a strange man kept telling me to take my clothes off.
Now, come along. We must go back to the TARDIS. This is a madhouse. It's all full of Arabs. Come along.
[After the Time Destructor has wiped out all life on the planet Kembel, including Sara and the Daleks]
Let's go, Doctor. I've seen enough of this place.
[a little happy] Well, my boy, we finally rid this planet of Daleks!
[Steven is upset that the Doctor is celebrating their victory, as he thinks about the three companions killed in this story, in a slightly crying and slightly angry tone] What about Bret? Katarina?... Sara.
[the Doctor thinks while Steven goes back on board the TARDIS] What a waste. What a terrible waste.
[Without another word he turns and boards the TARDIS and with its usual sound the TARDIS leaves Kembel]
The girl! The girl who was with me! If you'd brought her with us she needn't have died. But no, you had to leave her there to be slaughtered.
Well, it is possible of course she didn't die, and I was right to leave her.
Possible? Look, how possible? That girl was already hunted by the Catholic guards. If they killed ten thousand how did they spare her? You don't know, do you? You can't say for certain that you weren't responsible for that girl's death.
I was not responsible.
Oh, no. You just sent her back to her aunt's house where the guards were waiting to catch her. I tell you this much, Doctor, wherever this machine of yours lands next, I'm getting off. If your researches have so little regard for human life, then I want no part of it.
My dear Steven, history sometimes gives us a terrible shock, and that is because we don't quite fully understand. Why should we? After all, we're too small to realise its final pattern. Therefore don't try and judge it from where you stand. I was right to do as I did. Yes, that I firmly believe. [Steven leaves the TARDIS] Steven... Even after all this time, he cannot understand. I dare not change the course of history. Well, at least I taught him to take some precautions; he did remember to look at the scanner before he opened the doors. And now, they're all gone. All gone. None of them could understand. Not even my little Susan. Or Vicki. And as for Barbara and Chatterton — Chesterton — they were all too impatient to get back to their own time. And now, Steven. Perhaps I should go home. Back to my own planet. But I can't... I can't...
Look, Dodo, you don't know what you might have found out here. No gravity, poisoned atmosphere, all sorts of things. Look, stop prancing around over there. What happens if you get lost?
I catch a bus back.
A bus? Look, what are you talking about? I mean, just where do you think you are?
Ah! Bet you thought you'd caught me, didn't you? Bet you thought I didn't know. Well, I do.
You do?
Of course I do.
What, this place? I mean, you recognise it? What, with all these strange animals and flowers and things?
[Toucan in the trees.]
Well, you can't have been here before.
Yes, I have. It's just outside London. I came here once with the school. It's called Whipsnade.
Flowers from America. A bird from Africa. A snake from Brazil. And now an elephant from India.
Well then, use it, my child! We must do something about that cold of yours. That reminds me, why are you dressed in these stupid clothes? Have you been footling about in my wardrobe? Is that what it is? What do you think you're playing at, crusades?
Yes, you do, my dear. Now you take care of them because you never know when we might use them. Now, I suggest we take a last look round and we'll get you off to bed.
Oh, you're not going to send me home, are you?
Home? Ho, ho! What an idea. I couldn't send you home even if I wanted to.
Oh, that's all right, then. I think I'm beginning to enjoy this space travel or whatever it is
