We must not look at goblin men,
We must not buy their fruits:
Who knows upon what soil they fed
Their hungry thirsty roots?

Rose: Is that the Koh-i-noor?

Queen Victoria: Given to me as the spoils of war. Perhaps its legend is now coming true. It is said that whoever owns it must surely die.
The Doctor: Well, that’s true of anything if you wait long enough.Doctor Who s02e02, Tooth and Claw
The Doctor: (Scottish accent) Are we in Scotland?
Captain Reynolds: How can you be ignorant of that?
The Doctor: Och, I’m, I’m dazed and confused. I’ve been chasing this…this wee-naked child over hill and over dale. Ain’t that right, ya…tim’rous beastie?
Rose: Och, aye! I’ve been oot n’aboot—
The Doctor: No, don’t do that.
Rose: Hoots, mon!
The Doctor: No, really don’t. Really.Doctor Who s02e02, Tooth and Claw
