| 501 | Would the young folk so test those to whose words they hearken. We should always question authority before we accept it. | |
| 502 | Would you like a jelly baby? | |
| 503 | Yes, quite cozy isn't it? Oh you'll soon get used to it old chap, relative dimensions and all that. | |
| 504 | Yes, somehow a large chunk of the church has embraced a feckless faith, lead by a cardigan wearing Nancy boy Jesus and have contented themselves with being tolerant doormats for dillweeds with dense ideas. | |
| 505 | You acted like children fighting over a cake. You had a chance to share it, but instead chose to try to steal it all from your smaller siblings. If you come to my table, you will have to mind your manners, but you each will have bread. | |
| 506 | You can always judge a man by the quality of his enemies. | |
| 507 | You can never know everything,... and part of what you know is always wrong. Perhaps even the most important part. A portion of wisdom lies in knowing that. A portion of courage lies in going on anyway. | |
| 508 | You can roll dice, and understand that the whole game may hinge on one turn of a die. You deal out cards, and say that all a man’s fortune for the night may turn upon one hand. But a man’s whole life, you sniff at, and say, what, this naught of a human, this fisherman, this carpenter, this thief, this cook, why, what can they do in the great wide world? And so you putter and sputter your lives away, like candles burning in a draft. | |
| 509 | You can't force experiments or people to conform to your world view! The universe doesn't work that way! | |
| 510 | You can't walk into the middle of a Western town and say you've come from outer space! Good gracious me. You would be arrested on a vagrancy charge! | |
| 511 | You could augment an earwig to the point where it understood nuclear physics, but it would still be a very stupid thing to do! | |
| 512 | You don't have any idea what love really is. You can't love anyone or anything until you love your own existence, first. Love can only grow out of a respect for your own life. When you love yourself, your own existence, then you love someone who can enhance your existence, share it with you, and make it more pleasurable. When you hate yourself and believe your existence is evil, then you can only hate, you can only experience the shell of love, that longing for something good, but you have nothing to base it in but hatred. You taint the very concept of love... with your corrupted longing for it. You want me only to justify your hatred, to be your partner in self-loathing. To truly love someone..., you must revel in their existence because they make life all the more wonderful. If you think existence is corrupt, then you are sealed off from the fruition of such a relationship, from what love really is. | |
| 513 | You go rummaging around in other people's lives. You hear rumors and go digging for the painful truth beneath the lovely lies. You believe you have a right to these things. But you don't.... When someone tells you a piece of their life, they're giving you a gift, not granting you your due. | |
| 514 | You have cause for bitterness.... But please... remember that it wasn't the Faith that committed those actions - it was the man who used that Faith for his own worldly purposes! | |
| 515 | You know Jo, I sometimes think that military intelligence is a contradiction in terms. | |
| 516 | You know Jo, I sometimes think that 'military intelligence' is a contradiction in terms. | |
| 517 | You know, I am so constantly outwitting the opposition, I tend to forget the delight and satisfaction of the arts... the gentle art of fisticuffs. | |
| 518 | You know, the very powerful and the very stupid have one thing in common: they don't alter their views to fit the facts, they alter the facts to fit the views, which can be uncomfortable, if you happen to be one of the facts that needs altering. | |
| 519 | You know, your species has the most amazing capacity for self-deception, matched only by its ingenuity in trying to destroy itself. | |
| 520 | You lot, you spend all your time thinking about dying, like you're gonna get killed by eggs or beef or global warming or asteroids. But you never take time to imagine the impossible, that maybe you survive. | |
| 521 | You may be a doctor, but I'm The Doctor. The definite article, you might say. | |
| 522 | You may have noticed that if one has money without brains, he cannot use it to advantage; but if one has brains without money, they will enable him to live comfortably to the end of his days. | |
| 523 | You mean you're deliberately choosing to go on the run from your own people in a rackety old TARDIS? | |
| 524 | You must find within yourself the ability to help yourself, the free will to accomplish what you must. Only in that way can you truly succeed in life. | |
| 525 | You never love anything like you love your children. And nothing can make you angrier. | |
| 526 | You put a mask on a person, something weird happens. Changes the way they act along with the way they look. Sometimes they don’t seem like people at all no more, but something else. | |
| 527 | You underrate yourself.... You did it all yourself. Opportunity is not accomplishment. You did it, by ingenuity, by resourcefulness, by gut. You really are as good as you thought you were, and you have the potential to be much better. | |
| 528 | You want to be a better person? Go listen to someone you disagree with. Don't argue with them, just listen. It’s remarkable what interesting things people will say if you take the time to not be a jerk. | |
| 529 | Your hair is winter fire
January embers
My heart burns there, too. | |
| 530 | Your ideas are too narrow, too crippled. I am a citizen of the universe, and a gentleman to boot. | |
| 531 | Your leader will be angry if you kill me. I'm a genius! | |
| 532 | You're right, of course - the really wealthy will keep their privileges, no matter who sits on the throne. | |
