“This thing up here, this consciousness, thinks it's running the shop. It's a secondary organ.”

The Power of Myth (1988)
Context: This thing up here, this consciousness, thinks it's running the shop. It's a secondary organ. It's a secondary organ of a total human being, and it must not put itself in control. It must submit and serve the humanity of the body.

“When you run with the Doctor, it feels like it'll never end.”
Lines written for River Song, in Forest of the Dead [4.9] (7 June 2008)
Context: When you run with the Doctor, it feels like it'll never end. But however hard you try you can't run forever. Everybody knows that everybody dies and nobody knows it like the Doctor. But I do think that all the skies of all the worlds might just turn dark if he ever, for one moment, accepts it.
“Then why did you run? A man who runs needs no other accusation.”
“Is that so? Really?” cried Steen. “Well, I would run out of a burning building even if I had not set the fire myself.”
