Author of quotes: Adam Douglas

Overnight, an entire race went from smart, charming, thoughtful creatures to smart, charming, adorable, first-class maniacal xenophobes.

During the day, of course, the sun rose, but anyone who stared at it for too long, then lost the ability to see something else, and this was enough to scare away even the most curious from the process.

It’s one thing to leave the last plum on your plate because you don’t like it, and it’s quite another to find that someone has nibbled it to the bone and also pocketed the plate.

Borusa spent several hundred years perfecting the predatory glint of his eyes, which immediately made all students worry that they were seventy years late with their essays. The doctor was notoriously immune to this trick - he never submitted an essay at all.

Before that active intervention of Borus, it was so that syak had a certain weakness for the Doctor. During his long, long career, he trained many successful engineers of time, quantum mechanics, archivists of the theory of relativity, and so on. All these Time Lords reached significant heights - and he forgot about all of them, usually not needing anyone's services. But the Doctor was out of the ordinary. Of course, he was like a splinter in the heel, but - all the same. Even though Borus did not encourage the education of renegades, it was at least interesting to have intimate conversations with the Doctor. And the Doctor was so fond of scrapes and so zealously got involved in all sorts of unbelievable things that sometimes it simply did not seem possible to keep track of all his illegal actions. His infamous ancient, even by Gallifrey's standards, the TARDIS was thrown from one hotspot to the next. Nevertheless, the Doctor turned out to be extremely lucky - considering how many times his life was in imminent danger (he was constantly pursued, shot, tortured, fed to black holes, dragged through temporal storms, announced a vendetta - annoyed in every way, in other words), he always won at the very last moment.

There are types that can predict rain. And then there is the Doctor - he guesses when the armed guards sent after him will appear.

“Me too,” the Doctor drawled thoughtfully. - Honestly, when you don't remember about it, you sleep better.

The doctor decided to try to be President for a short time. Some humorist then noticed that when the Doctor turned his attention to Earth, alien invasions began to happen there every week - so Gallifrey should not expect a better fate under his rule. The words were prophetic: two invasions in two weeks. Of course, the Doctor was shown the door, and he, announcing that it was the worst rest in his memory, proudly left. Oddly enough, no one has ever invaded Gallifrey since.

Romana, like any Time Lord, quite easily forgot that the title of Doctor is President of the Supreme Council of Gallifrey, Adjuster of the Eye of Harmony, Holder of Rassilon's Wisdom and Keeper of the Matrix, And So On, And So On.

He managed to save entire planets not to the detriment of his own interests: fishing (out of hand), recitation of poetry (loud) and name-calling (out of hand and loud). Yes, he liked tea, but he drank it with such great collateral damage that one could say - yes, the Doctor likes to drink tea exactly as the Daleks like to softly land on the planets they discovered and greet the local inhabitants.
