I love this…

…because it reminds me that the best science fiction is as much about the humanity of the stories as anything, and that’s why I’m such a fan of the genre.

This is a quote from Rose Tyler (played by Billie Piper), from the season finale of the new Doctor Who series, when she finds herself back in her old life, believing her traveling companion, The Doctor, to be dead.

It was a better life! I don’t mean the travelling, and seeing aliens and spaceship and things, that doesn’t matter. The Doctor showed me a better way of living your life! That 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 when everyone else just runs away!

  1. OMG I LOVE THE NEW DOCTOR WHO and I’m sad that the doctor is the same because I think I loved him and wanted to have his babies, but, yes, that is a wonderful quote and omg when is it on again?
    Longest run-on sentence ever…
