Doctor Who over the years: Episode quotes
The Vampires Of Venice
The Doctor: Oh, the life out there, it dazzles. I mean, it blinds you to the things that are important. I've seen it devour relationships and plans. It's meant to do that. Because for one person to have seen all that, to taste the glory and then go back, it will tear you apart. So, I'm sending you somewhere, together.
Amy: Whoa. What, like a date?
The Doctor: Anywhere you want. Any time you want. One condition. It has to be amazing. The Moulin Rouge in 1890. The first Olympic Games. Think of it as a wedding present, because it's either this or tokens. It's a lot to take in, isn't it? Tiny box, huge room inside. What's that about? Let me explain.
Rory: It's another dimension.
The Doctor: It's basically another dimension. What?
Rory: After what happened with Prisoner Zero, I've been reading up on all the latest scientific theories. FTL travel, parallel universes.
The Doctor: I like the bit when someone says it's bigger on the inside. I always look forward to that.
***********************************
The Doctor: Right. Okay, I'll go first. If anything happens to me, go back
Rory: What happened, between you and Amy? You said she kissed you.
The Doctor: Now? You want to do this now?
Rory: I have a right to know. I'm getting married in four hundred and thirty years.
(Amy finds the cover of the trapdoor to the tunnel, and pulls back the metal bolts. She starts to leave and walks into Carlo, dropping her candle.) The Doctor: She was frightened. I was frightened. But we survived, you know, and the relief of it, and so she kissed me.
Rory: And you kissed her back.
The Doctor: No. I kissed her mouth.

The Doctor: Long way from Saturnyne, aren't you, Sister of the Water?
Rosanna: No, let me guess. The owner of the psychic paper. Then I take it you're a refugee, like me?
The Doctor: I'll make you a deal. An answer for an answer. You're using a perception filter. It doesn't change your features, but manipulates the brainwaves of the person looking at you. But seeing one of you for the first time in, say, a mirror, the brain doesn't know what to fill the gap with, so leaves it blank, hence no reflection.
Rosanna: Your question?
The Doctor: Why can we see your big teeth?
Rosanna: Self preservation over rides the mirage. The subconscious perceives the threat and tries to alert the conscious brain.
The Doctor: Where's Isabella?
Rosanna: My turn. Where are you from?
The Doctor: Gallifrey.
Rosanna: You should be in a museum. Or in a mausoleum.
The Doctor: Why are you here?
Rosanna: We ran from the Silence. Why are you here?
The Doctor: Wedding present. The Silence?
Rosanna: There were cracks. Some were tiny. Some were as big as the sky. Through some we saw worlds and people, and through others we saw Silence and the end of all things. We fled to an ocean like ours, and the crack snapped shut behind us. Saturnyne was lost.
The Doctor: So Earth is to become Saturnyne Mark Two?
Rosanna: And you can help me. We can build a new society here, as others have. What do you say?
The Doctor: Where's Isabella?
Rosanna: Isabella?
The Doctor: The girl who saved my friend.
Rosanna: Oh, deserters must be executed. Any general will tell you that. I need an answer, Doctor. A partnership. Any which way you choose.
The Doctor: I don't think that's such a good idea, do you? I'm a Time Lord. You're a big fish. Think of the children.

The Doctor: Now then, what about you two, eh? Next stop Leadworth Registry Office. Maybe I can give you away.
Rory: It's fine. Drop me back where you found me. I'll just say you've
Amy: Stay. With us. Please. Just for a bit. I want you to stay.
The Doctor: Fine with me.
Rory: Yeah? Yes, I would like that.
Amy: Nice one. I will pop the kettle on. Hey, look at this. Got my spaceship, got my boys. My work here is done.
(Amy goes into the Tardis.) Rory: Er, we are not her boys.
The Doctor: Yeah, we are.
Rory: Yeah, we are.
