Saturdays 9:00 PMDoctor Who Season 10 Episode 2: "The Pilot" Quotes
I’m not stupid, you know. You don’t think anyone’s seen a movie? I know what a *mind wipe* looks like!
Bill
Bill: What changed your mind?
The Doctor: Time.
Bill: Time?
The Doctor: And Relative Dimension In Space. It means, “What the hell?”.
Hunger looks very much like evil from the other end of the cutlery. Do you think your bacon sandwich loves you back?
The Doctor
Bill: Doesn’t make sense then!
The Doctor: What doesn’t?
Bill: “TARDIS”! If you’re from another planet, why would you name the box in English? Those initials wouldn’t *work* in any other language!
The Doctor: People don’t generally bring *that* up.
Nardole [about the TARDIS]: First, you have to imagine a very big box fitting inside a very small box.
Bill: Okay!
Nardole: Then, you have to *make* one! [beat] It’s the second part people normally get stuck on.
The Doctor: This is the gateway to everything that ever was and ever can be.

The Doctor: Spaceship!
Bill: Kitchen!
The Doctor [taken aback]: ...A what?
Bill: A really posh kitchen!
Bill: What good’s getting in a box gonna do?!
The Doctor: What an extraordinarily long and involved answer this is gonna be!
The Doctor: Hello, Bill. What’s that?
Bill: I’ll tell you what it *isn’t* -- a freak optical effect! And it’s following me!
I know you know lots of stuff about… well, basically everything, but… do you know any sci-fi?

Time is a structure relative to ourselves. Time is the space made by our lives, where we stand together forever. Time and relative dimension in space. It means life.
The Doctor
Time. Time doesn’t pass. Time is an illusion. And Life is the magician. Because Life only lets you see one day at a time. You remember being alive yesterday, you hope you’re going to be alive tomorrow, so it feels like you are traveling one to the other, but nobody’s moving anywhere! Movies don’t really move. They’re just pictures, just lots and lots of pictures, all of them still. None of them moving, just frozen moments!
