More quotes by Steven Moffat

Everybody knows that everybody dies. But not every day. Not today. Some days are special. Some days are so, so blessed. Some days, nobody dies at all. Now and then, every once in a very long while, every day in a million days, when the wind stands fair and the Doctor comes to call, everybody lives.

That place you've always been heading for, but never expected to go.

Peter Capaldi, will always be Doctor Who. You retain the title forever. Ask your predecessors, they all think they're the real one. I've had Sunday lunch with Peter Davidson and David Tennant and they're eyeing each other like, 'It's me!
Steven Moffat
When man invented fire, he didn't say, Hey, let's cook. He said, Great, now we can see naked bottoms in the dark.
Steven Moffat
You'll go out of business if you think people are stupid.
Steven Moffat
When writing comedy, you have to have the confidence to believe that there is only one type of relationship in the world, and we are all having it, that all men behave in the same way and so do all women.
Steven Moffat
Kathy Nightingale: What's good about sad? Sally Sparrow: It's happy for deep people.

What's the point of being a grown-up if you don't get to be immature?
Steven Moffat
I don't think, generally speaking, people become writers because they were the really good, really cool, attractive kid in class. I'll be honest. This is our revenge for people who were much better looking and more popular than us. I was a bit like that, I suppose.
Steven Moffat
I'd forgotten not all victories are about saving the universe.
