- River Song [Giving Amy the prayer leaf from the cradle]: It's your daughter's name, in the language of the forest.
- Amy Pond: I know my daughter's name.
- River Song: Except they don’t have a word for pond, because the only water in the forest is the river. The Doctor will find your daughter, and he will care for her, whatever it takes, and I know that. [Slowly, the writing on the prayer leaf is translated into English, revealing the chlid's name: River Song.] It’s me. I’m Melody. I’m your daughter.
- The Doctor: You think I wanted this? I didn’t do this! This...this wasn’t me!
- River Song: This was exactly you. All this, all of it. You make them so afraid. When you began, all those years ago, sailing off to see the universe, did you ever think you’d become this? The man who can turn an army around at the mention of his name? Doctor – the word for healer, and wise man, throughout the universe. We get that word from you, you know. But if you carry on the way you are, what might that word come to mean? To the people of the Gamma Forests, the word ‘doctor’ means ‘mighty warrior’. How far you’ve come. And now they’ve taken a child. The child of your best friends. And they’re going to turn her into a weapon, just to bring you down. And all this, my love...in fear of you.
Night will fall and drown the sun, when a good man goes to war.
Friendship dies and true love lies.
Night will fall and the dark will rise, when a good man goes to war.

- I’ve come from the Doctor too.
- Yes, But at a different point in time.
- Unless there’s two of them. Now, that’s a whole different birthday.
Doctor: Hello.
River: Hello.
Doctor: [laughing] But that means…
River: I’m afraid it does!
Doctor: But you and I… we we we we… uh… [he makes kissing noises]
River: Yes! [The Doctor rubs his hands gleefully.]
Doctor: [straightening his bow tie] How do I look?
River: Amazing.
Doctor: I’d better be.
River: Yes, you’d better be.- Doctor Who 6x07: A Good Man Goes To War
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.
“Oh, and this is my friend River. Nice hair, clever, has her own gun, and unlike me she really doesn’t mind shooting people. I shouldn’t like that. Kinda do a bit.”
“Thank you, sweetie.”
“I know you’re team players and everything, but she’ll definitely kill at least the first three of you.”
“Or the first seven easily.”
“Seven, really?”
“Eight for you, honey.”
“Stop it.”
“Make me.”
“Yeah, well maybe I will.”
I'm a Time Traveller. I point and laugh at Archeologists.
