when do I not see you?

DOCTOR WHO (2005– ) S08E09: Flatline

imagine if time happened all at once. every moment of your life laid out around you… like a city. streets full of buildings made of days. the day you were born. the day you die. the day you fall in love. the day that love ends. a whole city built from triumph and heartbreak and boredom and laughter and cutting your toenails. It’s the best place you will ever be. time is a structure relative to ourselves. time is the space made by our lives. where we stand together forever. time and relative dimension in space. It means “life”.

You’re pursuing a little lost girl through a mysterious forest. The path has disappeared.

                                        I had a duty of care.

                                                                    Liar. You always care. Always have.

Oh, my God. Oh, my God! It is, isn’t it? You found him. You actually found Robin Hood.

“It’s okay. It’s okay. I went too far. I broke all my own rules. I became the Hybrid. This is right. I accept it.”

Tell you what, seeing as it’s goodbye, shall we break a habit? What? What habit? Hug.

                                     - “I, I don’t think that I’m a hugging person now.”                                                     - “I’m not sure you get a vote.”                                                              - “Whatever you say.”

“Did you seriously think that that was going to work on me?”

                                              “I don’t think I could ever forget y o u.”

                                                                  “I’m his carer.”                                         “Yeah, my carer. She cares so I don’t have to.”

“Doctor, are you?”

“The Doctor and Clara both have difficulty as characters just saying they mean the obvious. “You are massively important to me; you are the most important person in my life”. They can’t actually say that. A phrase “Do you think I care for you so little that betraying me would make a difference?” the nearest to “I love you” that the Doctor’s ever come out with”.                             S. Moffat

“Doctor, you are not the only person who ever lost someone. It’s the story of everybody. Get over it. Beat it. Break free. Doctor, it’s time. Get up off your ass. And win.”
