[John Darnacan]

What is the greatest line ever uttered in Doctor Who?

[Cornelia_Africana]

"I just touch these two strands together, and the Daleks are finished. Have I that right?"

I totally agree!

[John Darnacan]

"Go forward in all your beliefs, and show me that I am not mistaken in mine."

[Cornelia_Africana]

And another great line from the same serial:

"I know that although the Daleks will create havoc and destruction for millions of years, I know also that out of their evil must come something good."

[Slagathor]

"You're A doctor. I'm THE Doctor. Sort of the definite article, you might say."

"Have you ever thought what it's like to be wanderers in the Fourth Dimension? Have you? To be exiles? Susan and I are cut off from our own planet - without friends or protection. But one day we shall get back. Yes, one day...." (An Unearthly Child)

"Well, in view of the facts that I’ve already presented - the ray gun, this pen and one or two other things - I think we’re dealing with people who are not from this planet." (The Faceless Ones)

"I reversed the polarity of the neutron flow" (The Sea Devils)

"Do I have the right? Simply touch one wire against the other, and it's it? The Daleks cease to exist? Hundreds of millions of people, thousands of generations, can live without fear, in peace, and never even know the word "Dalek"?" (Genesis of the Daleks)

"That's the trouble with regeneration. You quite never know what you're going to get." (Castrovalva)

"In all my travelling throughout the universe, I have battled against evil, against power-mad conspirators. I should have stayed here. The oldest civilisation: decadent, degenerate, and rotten to the core. Power-mad conspirators, Daleks, Sontarans, Cybermen - they're still in the nursery compared to us. Ten million years of absolute power. That's what it takes to be really corrupt." (The Ultimate Foe)

"There are worlds out there where the sky is burning, and the sea's asleep, and the rivers dream; people made of smoke and cities made of song. Somewhere there's danger, somewhere there's injustice, and somewhere else the tea's getting cold. Come on, Ace. We've got work to do." (Survival)

"These shoes! [Stomps the ground happily.] They fit perfectly!" (TV Movie)

"Do you know like we were saying? About the Earth revolving? It's like when you're a kid. The first time they tell you that the world's turning and you just can't quite believe it 'cause everything looks like it's standing still. I can feel it. The turn of the Earth. The ground beneath our feet is spinning at 1,000 miles an hour and the entire planet is hurtling around the sun at 67,000 miles an hour, and I can feel it. We're falling through space, you and me, clinging to the skin of this tiny little world, and if we let go... That's who I am." (Rose)

"I'm the Doctor. I'm a Time Lord. I'm from the planet Gallifrey in the constellation of Kasterborous. I'm 903 years old, and I'm the man who's gonna save your lives and all six billion people on the planet below. You got a problem with that?" (Voyage of the Damned)

"Now the question of the hour is, "Who's got the Pandorica?" Answer: I do. Next question: Who's coming to take it from me? Come on! Look at me! No plan, no back-up, no weapons worth a damn! Oh, and something else I don't have: Anything to lose! So, if you're sitting up there in your silly, little spaceship with all your silly, little guns, and you've got any plans on taking the Pandorica tonight, just remember who's standing in your way! Remember every black day I ever stopped you and then, and then, do the smart thing: Let somebody else try first." (The Pandorica Opens)

Isn't that 11 "greatest lines"?
