Mickey: It's a spaceship. Brilliant! I got a spaceship on my first go.
Rose: It looks kind of abandoned. Anyone on board?
Doctor: Nah. Nothing here. Well, nothing dangerous. Well, not that dangerous. Know what, I'll just have a quick scan. In case of something dangerous.
Reinette: Monsieur, what are you doing in my fireplace?
Doctor: Oh it's just a... routine fire check. Can you tell me what year it is?
Reinette: Of course I can. Seventeen hundred and twenty-seven.
Doctor: Right. Lovely. One of my favorites. August is rubbish though. Stay indoors.
Mickey: You said this was the 51st century.
Doctor: I also said this ship was generating enough power to punch a hole in the Universe. I think we just found the hole. Must be a spaceship with a temporal hyperlink.
Mickey: What's that?
Doctor: No idea. Just made it up. Didn't want to say "Magic Door".
Reinette (Sophia Myles): Monsieur, be careful!
Doctor: Just a nightmare, Reinette. Don't worry about it. Everyone has nightmares. Even monsters from under the bed have nightmares. Don't you, monster?
Reinette: What do monsters have nightmares about?
Doctor: Me!
Mickey: Excellent! Ice gun.
Doctor: Fire extinguisher.
Reinette: It is customary, I think, to have an imaginary friend only during one's childhood. You are to be congratulated on your persistence.
Doctor: Reinette. Well. Goodness how you've grown.
Reinette: And you do not appear to have aged a single day. That is tremendously impolite of you.
(I forgot what this guy's name was): Who the hell are you?
Doctor: I'm the Doctor. And I just snogged Madame de Pompadour!
Doctor: Rose? Mickey? Every time! Every time! It's rule one. “Don't wander off.” I tell them, I do. Rule one. There could be anything on this ship. {sees a horse}
Mickey: What's a horse doing on a spaceship?
Doctor: Mickey, what's pre-Revolutionary France doing on a spaceship? Get a little perspective.
Doctor: It's back on the ship. Rose, take Mickey and Arthur, get after it, follow it. Don't approach it, just watch where it goes.
Rose: Arthur?
Doctor: Good name for a horse.
Rose: No, you're not keeping the horse.
Doctor: I let you keep Mickey. Now go go go!
Reinette: Doctor. So lonely. So very very alone.
Doctor: What do you mean, alone? You've never been alone in your life. {realizing} When did you start calling me Doctor?
Reinette: Such a lonely little boy. Lonely then and lonelier now. How can you bear it?
Doctor: How did you do that?
Reinette: A door once opened may be stepped through in either direction. Oh Doctor. My lonely Doctor. Dance with me.
Doctor: I can't.
Reinette: Dance with me.
Doctor: This is the night you dance with the King.
Reinette: Then first I shall make him jealous.
Doctor: I can't.
Reinette: Doctor. Doctor who? It's more than just a secret, isn't it?
Doctor: What did you see?
Reinette: That there comes a time, Time Lord, when every lonely little boy must learn how to dance.
Clockwork Man: You are compatible.
Rose: Well, you might want to think about that. You really really might. Because me and Mickey, we didn't come here alone. Oh no. And trust me, you wouldn't want to mess with our designated driver.
{The Doctor walks in, obviously drunk}
Rose: Oh, look at what the cat dragged in. The Oncoming Storm.
Doctor: Mm. You sound just like your mother.
Rose: What have you been doing? Where have you been?
Doctor: Well... among other things I think I just invented the banana daiquiri a couple of centuries early. Do you know they'd never even seen a banana before. Always take a banana to a party, Rose. Bananas are good.
Doctor: Oh ho ho... brilliant! It's you! You're my favorite, you are. You are the best. You know why? 'Cause you're so thick! You're Mr. Thick Thick Thickety Thickface from Thicktown. Thickania! ... And so's your dad.
Reinette: I have made a decision. And my decision is no. I shall not be going with you today. I have seen your world and I have no desire to set foot there again.
Clockwork Man: We do not require your feet.
King Louis: What the hell is going on?
Reinette: Oh. This is my lover, the King of France.
Doctor: Yeah? Well, I'm the Lord of Time.
Reinette {in a letter to the Doctor}: My Dear Doctor, The path has never seemed so slow, and yet I fear I am nearing its end. Reason tells me that you and I are unlikely to meet again, but I think I shall not listen to reason. I have seen the world inside your head and know that all things are possible. Hurry though, my love. My days grow shorter now and I am so very weak. God speed, my lonely angel.
