Doctor Who

The Doctor and River in “A Good Man Goes to War”

[furious] Where the hell have you been? Every time you asked, I have been there! Where the hell were you today?!

I couldn't have prevented this.

The Doctor You could have tried!

And so, my love, could you. [looks toward Amy and Rory] I know you're not all right, but hold tight, Amy, because you're going to be.

You think I wanted this?! I didn't do this! This... this wasn't me!

This was exactly you. All this, all of it. You make them so afraid. When you began, all those years ago, sailing off to see the universe, did you ever think you'd become this? The man who can turn an army around at the mention of his name? "Doctor" - the word for "healer" and "wise man" throughout the universe. We get that word from you, you know. But if you carry on the way you are, what might that word come to mean? To the people of the Gamma Forests, the word "doctor" means "mighty warrior". How far you've come. And now they've taken a child. The child of your best friends. And they're going to turn her into a weapon, just to bring you down. And all this, my love... in fear of you.
