As the World Turns

Rose:  Who are you?

The Doctor:  Do you know like we were sayin'?  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 standin' still.  I can feel it.  The turn of the Earth.  The ground beneath our feet is spinnin' 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 fallin' through space, you and me, clinging to the skin of this tiny little world, and if we let go... That's who I am.

Moments of Perfection

"If you want to know the truth... I don't really care about the stats. Or the cup, or the trophy, or anything like that. In fact, even the games aren't that important to me, not really. What matters to me is the perfect throw... making the perfect catch... the perfect stepping block. Perfection is what it's about. It's about those moments when... you can feel the perfection of creation. The beauty of physics, the wonder of mathematics. And all the relation of action and reaction. And that is the kind of perfection I want to be connected to."

Bad Wolf Speaks

“When you’re a kid, they tell you it’s all… Grow up, get a job, get married, get a house, have a kid, and that’s it. But the truth is, the world is so much stranger than that. It’s so much darker. And so much madder. And so much better.”

見えが来れ

Mein Schrute!

"Blood alone moves the wheels of history!  Have you ever asked yourselves in an hour of meditation - which everyone finds during the day - how long we have been striving for greatness? Not only the years we've been at war - the war of work - but from the moment as a child, when we realize the world could be conquered. It has been a lifetime struggle - a never-ending fight, I say to you and you will understand that it is a privilege to fight. We are Warriors!  Salesmen of north-eastern Pennsylvania, I ask you once more rise and be worthy of this historical hour.   No revolution is worth anything unless it can defend itself. Some people will tell you salesman is a bad word. They'll conjure up images of used car dealers, and door to door charlatans. This is our duty to change their perception. I say, salesmen and women of the world... unite!  We must never acquiesce, for it is together... together that we prevail.  We must never cede control of the Motherland...for it together that we prevail!"

Thug Life


And as long as I stay black, 
I gotta stay strapped,
And I never get to lay back,
Always worry 'bout the payback,
Some punk I roughed up way back,
Comin' back after all these years...
Rat-tat-tat-tat-tat
That's the way it is

Where have you gone, Joe DiMaggio?


Late in his career, Joe DiMaggio was asked why he had hustled on an inconsequential play in a game that had little effect on the Yankee's fate that year.  DiMaggio responded, "Because there is always some kid who may be seeing me for the first time.  I owe him my best."

Lord Randal

O where ha you been, Lord Randal, my son?
And where ha you been, my handsome young man?
I ha been at the greenwood; mother, mak my bed soon,
For I’m wearied wi hunting, and fain wad lie down.
 

An who met ye there, Lord Randal, my son?
An who met you there, my handsome young man?
O I met wi my true-love; mother, mak my bed soon,
For I’m wearied wi huntin, an fain wad lie down.
 

And what did she give you, Lord Randal, my son?
And what did she give you, my handsome young man?
Eels fried in a pan; mother, mak my bed soon,
For I’m wearied with huntin, and fain wad lie down.
 

And wha gat your leavins, Lord Randal, my son?
And wha gat your leavins, my handsom young man?
My hawks and my hounds; mother, mak my bed soon,
For I’m wearied wi huntin, and fain wad lie down.
 

And what becam of them, Lord Randall, my son?
And what became of them, my handsome young man?
They stretched their legs out an died; mother, mak my bed soon,
For I’m wearied wi huntin, and fain wad lie down.
 

O I fear you are poisoned, Lord Randal, my son!
I fear you are poisoned, my handsome young man! 

O yes, I am poisoned; mother, mak my bed soon,
For I’m sick at the heart, and I fain wad lie down.


What d’ ye leave to your mother, Lord Randal, my son?
What d’ye leave to your mother, my handsome young man?
Four and twenty milk kye; mother, mak my bed soon,
For I’m sick at the heart, and I fain wad lie down.
 

What d’ ye leave to your sister, Lord Randal, my son?
What d’ ye leave to your sister, my handsome young man?
My gold and my silver; mother, mak my bed soon,
For I’m sick at the heart, an I fain wad lie down.
 

What d’ ye leave to your brother, Lord Randal, my son?
What d’ ye leave to your brother, my handsome young man?
My house and my lands; mother, mak my bed soon,
For I’m sick at the heart, and I fain wad lie down.
 

What d’ ye leave to your true-love, Lord Randal, my son?
What d’ ye leave to your true-love, my handsome young man?
I leave her hell and fire; mother, mak my bed soon,
For I’m sick at the heart, and I fain wad lie down.
