Torchwood. Delete. every time you see them happy, you remember how sad
they're going to be... and it breaks your heart. Because what's the
point in them being happy now if they're going to be sad later? The
answer is, of course, because they are going to be sad later. Upgrading
is compulsory. I'm burning up a sun just to say goodbye. It's bigger on
the inside! The Face of Boe. He's like fire and ice and rage. He's like
the night, and the storm in the heart of the sun. He's ancient and
forever. He burns at the centre of time and he can see the turn of the
universe. And... he's wonderful. Run! People assume that time is a
strict progression of cause-of-effect...but actually, from a
non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint, it's more like a big ball of

Donna Noble. A thousand, million light years away. They will never
forget her, while she can never remember. But for one moment...one
shining moment...she was the most important woman in the whole wide
universe. .I am definitely a mad man with a box. If we're going
to die, let's die looking like a Peruvian folk band. Well, I was on my
way to this gay gypsy Bar Mitzvah for the disabled when I suddenly
thought, "Gosh, the Third Reich's a bit rubbish. I think I'll kill the
Führer." Who's with me?
The way I see it, every life
is a pile of good things and bad things.
The good things don’t always soften the bad things, but vice versa the
bad things don’t always spoil the good things and make them
unimportant.
