“Kindness is a language which the deaf can hear and the and the blind can see.”

They've promised that dreams can come true - but forgot to mention that nightmares are dreams, too.

“If lightning is the anger of the gods, the gods are concerned mostly with trees.”

“The inher­ent prin­ci­ples of human exis­tence are summed up in the sin­gle law of sol­i­dar­ity. This is the golden rule of human­ity, and may be for­mu­lated thus: no per­son can recog­nise or realise his or her own human­ity except by recog­nis­ing it in oth­ers and so coop­er­at­ing for its real­i­sa­tion by each and all. No man can eman­ci­pate him­self save by eman­ci­pat­ing with him all the men about him.”

Demons run when a good man goes to war. Night will fall and drown the sun, when a good man goes to war. Friendship dies and true love lies, night will fall and the dark will rise, when a good man goes to war. Demons run, but count the cost, the battle’s won, but the child is lost.

Those reports of the sun spots and the solar flares. They're wrong. They're aren't any. It's not the sun. It's you. The sky is full of a million voices, saying, "Yes of course. We'll help." You've touched so many lives, saved so many people. Did you think when you're time came you'd really have to do more than just ask? You've decided that the universe is better of without you. But the universe doesn't agree.

I can't let you without knowing you are loved. By so many and so much. And by no one more than me.

Amy and Rory. The Last Centurion and The Girl Who Waited. However dark it got, I'd turn around an there they'd be. If it's time to go, remember what you're leaving. Remember the best. My friends have always been the best of me.

“Men never do evil so completely and cheerfully as when they do it from religious conviction.”
