"Moving on is part of life,' said the Doctor gently. 'It can be desperately sad -but it can also be a wonderful new beginning. You saw Victoria staying behind with the Harrises. Jamie and I missed her terribly, and I have no doubt that she missed us very much too. But she was a strong person, despite everything she'd been through. I like to think of her finding peace and stability, growing old happily, perhaps finding love and having children. She'd be a wonderful mother."
"If you could touch the alien sand and hear the cries of strange birds and watch them wheel in another sky, would that satisfy you?'
'What did you way?'
Gerry was still staring straight at her. 'The Doctor said that to Ian, right at the beginning, when they first travelled in time and Ian didn't believe him. Then I an saw it all and he did believe him,'
It was nonesense. It was ridiculous. But what if - perhaps - it was true?"
"She had a sort of immortality already, in a roundabout way. Even if she died, here and now - which, obviously, she wasn't planning on doing for a moment - in just under 2,000 years she'd be back on Earth, wandering about London, growing up. Almost 200,000 years after that, she'd be on a space station, defeating the Daleks. More years than she could comprehent after that, she'd be watching the Earth die."

"This wasn't like running away from monsters. This was a different kind of fear. Donna wasn't used to second-guessing herself. She was confident, self-assured, a person blithely sailed through life without doubting herself. Or that's what most people thought. It was even what Donna thought. But being with the Doctor - it was changing her. In a lot of ways, both good and bad. There'd always been a vast amount of compassion buried benath her brashness; now it was clearly on display."

"All these dramas going on around her. Gracilis and Marcia, desperate for the return of their son. Ursus, with his lust for artistic fame. Vanessa's worries and fears. The slaves - who knew what they were hoping, dreaming? And yet in 2,000 years' time, they'd all be forgotten. Things that were life and death today would mean nothing even to the next generation, let alone those living in the twenty-first century. By the time she was born, the people here would be dust, the villa rubble. The only thing that would survive was a statue of a goddess, and who knew what it would endure over that time?"

"I'm sorry, but this is the right thing too. You have your own life to live, and that's so much better than just having a part of mine. You know, I loved being that old man with the long hair, and for some strange reason I also loved being that short, scruffy fellow. But I like who I am now best and I will like who I am next even more. That's what I want for you too. Don't cling on to the past - keep growing, love who you are and who you will be and you will be happy."
"She knew about some of the women who'd travelled with the Doctor before her, and she couldn't help feeling she wasn't as good as them. Never afraid, always knowing the right thing to do - that was Rose Tyler and Martha Jones, while she, Donna, just blundered about. Would Rose or Martha be frozen with fear in this situation? Of course not! They'd be working on a solution. The Doctor wouldn't have left them behind while he went off to do whatever; he'd have told them to mobivate the flimflammers or something, and they'd have understood instantly, then solved the problem, saved the world and be having celebratory chips by now. And here she was. Donna Noble, in the dark both literally and figuratively, helpless and hopeless and useless."
"Humans, never satisfied, vindictive, always putting the pleasure of the moment above the needs of the future.'
'You still like us, though, don't you?' said Rose.
'Love ya,' said the Doctor, giving her a grin. 'But you do make a mess of things sometimes. Most of the time, in fact."

"Ursus looked puzzled. 'They were only slaves bought for the purpose. Men are bought to be slaughtered in the arena. Surely becoming beauty is a better death than being hacked to pieces in a gladiatorial show?'
Rose opened and closed her mouth a few times, each argument failing on her tounge. Funny how places on Earth could sometimes be more alien to her than other planets."
