Sometimes words resonate with me in ways that they don't to ordinary people. I don't know why, but I think it's because my Mom loves words, and I think it's one of the gifts she gave me. Anyway, I know Melanie thinks I'm an odd one, but the writing in Dr. Who is really outstanding. Last night I re-watched Bad Wolf and The Parting Ways - great episodes, and such great writing. Here are my favorite lines, with my favorite favorite lines bolded, for you're reading pleasure. They are great here, and even better when delivered by Rose.
The Doctor: What have you done? Rose Tyler: I looked into the TARDIS and the TARDIS looked into me. The Doctor: You looked into the time vortex, Rose, nobody is supposed to see that! Emperor Dalek: This is the abomination! Dalek: Exterminate! [Dalek shoots at her with its laser, but Rose lifts up her hand and stops it, reversing it back into the Dalek, the Doctor looks on in surprise] Rose Tyler: I am the Bad Wolf. I create myself. I take the words... [Rose lifts her hand and takes the words from the Bad Wolf Corporation sign] Rose Tyler: ...I scatter them, in time and space. [the words float off away from them] Rose Tyler: A message, to lead myself here. The Doctor: Rose, you've got to stop this, you've got to stop this now! You've the entire vortex running through you're head, you're gonna burn! Rose Tyler: I want you safe, my Doctor. Protected from the false God. Emperor Dalek: You cannot hurt me, I am immortal. Rose Tyler: You are tiny. I can see the whole of time and space, every single atom of your existence, and I divide them. [Rose lifts her hand again, the Dalek that tried to shoot her disappears in an explosion of golden dust] Rose Tyler: Everything must come to dust. All things, everything dies.

So true, my friend. Just wait until you hear (or maybe have already heard) a line in S3 E9 (Family of Blood) that describes who and what the Doctor is. Phenomenal.
