More quotes by Steven Moffat
[The Doctor, Capt. Jack and Rose are cornered by the empty children.] The Doctor: Go to your room! Go to your room! I mean it. I'm very, very angry with you. I'm very, very cross! GO! TO! YOUR! ROOM! [The children lurch away and obey him.] I'm really glad that worked. Those would have been terrible last words.
Steven Moffat
I'll be a story in your head. That's okay. We're all stories in the end. Just make it a good one, eh? 'Cause it was, you know. It was the best. The daft old man who stole a magic box and ran away. Did I ever tell you that I stole it? Well I borrowed it. I was always going to take it back.
Steven Moffat
Brainy's the new sexy.
Steven Moffat
Sherlock Holmes can be wise and funny. He wasn't, at the beginning. But later on, he's got a bantering relationship with loads of people. He's got a wisdom that he didn't have in the early stage. But he stays on the mountain top, and he will die up there. He's not going to change that.
Steven Moffat
When you're surrounded by friends and exes, there's a whole lot of stuff that starts crawling out. But however serious and traumatic those experiences may be to the participant, to the onlooker they're hilarious.
Steven Moffat
All lives end. All hearts are broken. Caring is not an advantage.
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
Witty and mean is easy - but fond and funny is hard.
Steven Moffat
River Song: Right, I have questions. But number one is this: what in the name of sanity have you got on your head? The Doctor: It's a fez. I wear a fez now. Fezzes are cool.
Steven Moffat
Have you met the French? My...GOD they know how to party!
Steven Moffat
Like most writers, I write about what has happened to me as that involves the minimum amount of research.
Steven Moffat
You should always waste time when you don't have any. Time is not the boss of you. Rule 408.
Steven Moffat
What is immutable about Sherlock Holmes? He favors reason over emotion, but actually underneath that, there is a lot of emotion going on. You can't suddenly make him ordinary because he would hate that. He's not suddenly going to be somebody else.
Steven Moffat
The trouble with a series as it gets older is it can feel like a tradition, and tradition is the enemy of suspense, and it's the enemy of comedy. It's the enemy of everything, really. So you have to shake it up.
Steven Moffat
You don't want to take over the universe. You wouldn't know what to do with it beyond shout at it.
Steven Moffat
I like that Helen Mirren has been saying the next doctor should be a woman. I would like to go on record and say that the Queen should be played by a man!
Steven Moffat
I always tend to favor the newer idea.
Steven Moffat
I always rip out the last page of a book. Then it doesn't have to end. I hate endings!
Steven Moffat
Amy: I had something I wanted to tell him. Stuff always gets in the way. Canton: Stuff does that.
Steven Moffat
Time travel is always more magical somehow when you go into the past. Traveling into the future is something you do, every day. You're just not going to get very far. So, I rather like the past travel.
Steven Moffat
