I know that it’s almost officially summer and, therefore, I have been binge-watching my most favorite show: Doctor Who. Although it may not seem like it at first, this show is relatable in so many ways. I’ve comprised a list of 10 quotes that, in my opinion, are some of the most important ones and should be thought about in our daily lives.
1. “The way I see it, every life is a pile of good things and bad things. The good things don’t always soften the bad things, but vice versa, the bad things don’t always spoil the good things and make them unimportant.”
2. “Some people live more in 20 years than others do in 80. It’s not the time that matters, it’s the person.”
3. “You don’t just give up. You don’t just let things happen. You make a stand! You say no! You have the guts to do what’s right, even when everyone else just runs away.”
4. “We all change, when you think about it. We’re all different people all through our lives. And that’s okay, that’s good, you’ve got to keep moving, so long as you remember all the people that you used to be.”
5. “You know when sometimes, you meet someone so beautiful – and then you actually talk to them, and five minutes later they’re as dull as a brick; but then there’s other people. And you meet them and you think, ‘Not bad, they’re okay,’ and then when you get to know them… Their face just sort of becomes them, like their personality’s written all over it, and they just – they turn into something so beautiful.”
6. “Nothing is ever forgotten. Not really.”
7. “You gave me hope and then you took it away. That’s enough to make anyone dangerous.”
8. “Homo Sapiens! What an inventive, invincible species. It's only a few millions years since they've crawled out of the mud and learned to walk. Puny, defenseless bipeds. They've survived flood, famine, and plague, they've survived cosmic wars and holocausts, and now here they are, out among the stars, waiting to begin a new life, ready to outsit eternity. They're indomitable! Indomitable!”
9. “Wonderful thing, pain. Without pain, no race could survive.”
10. “To the rational mind, nothing is inexplicable, only unexplained.”
Although there are so many more, these quotes help brighten your day, and I hope to have done that. Enjoy life as it comes, because, as the Doctor once said, “We’re all stories in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?”
