Quotes 

• The Doctor : Ashildr...

  Ashildr : That's not my name. I don't even remember that name.

  The Doctor : Well, w-w-what do you call yourself?

  Ashildr : Me.

  The Doctor : Yes, you, there's nobody else here.

  Ashildr : No, I call myself 'Me'. All the other names I chose died with whoever knew me. 'Me' is who I am now. No one's mother, daughter, wife. My own companion - singular, unattached, alone.

• Ashildr : She'll die on you, you know. She'll blow away like smoke.

  The Doctor : Save your breath.

  Ashildr : How old are you, Doctor?

  The Doctor : Older than you.

  Ashildr : How many have you lost? How many Clara's?

• The Doctor : I read your journals. Why are there pages missing?

  Ashildr : When things get really bad I tear the memories out.

  The Doctor : What could be worse than losing your children?

  Ashildr : I keep that entry to remind me not to have any more.

• Sam Swift : Who's this, your sidekick? You got your dad as a sidekick?

  The Doctor : I'm not his dad, I'm the Doctor.

  Sam Swift : Is that the best name you could come up with?

  The Doctor : What, says 'Sam Swift the Quick?' That's trying a bit too hard, isn't it? Or are you a little bit slow?

• The Doctor : Sorry, were you talking to me there? Try again, I promise I'll listen this time.

  Ashildr : YOU have interrupted my robbery, sir, and you will step away if you wish to take another breath.

  Coachman : You're going to get us all killed if you don't shut your mouth!

  The Doctor : Sorry, sorry, I really was planning to listen that time but basically, uh, I didn't.

• [last lines] 

  The Doctor : I've missed you, Clara Oswald.

  Clara : Well, don't worry, daft old man. I'm not going anywhere.

• The Doctor : You're immortal, not indestructible. You can be hurt - killed, even.

  Ashildr : 10,000 hours is all it takes to master any skill. Over 100,000 hours and you're the best there's ever been. I don't need to be indestructible - I'm superb.

• The Doctor : The Black Death - 1348. I meant to warn you.

  Ashildr : I got sick, but I got better.

• Ashildr : You'll need a mask, sidekick. Watch and learn.

  The Doctor : [putting on his sonic sunglasses]  Brought my own, thanks.

• The Doctor : You?

  Ashildr : Yes, it is me. What took you so long, old man?

• The Doctor : Do I look like some feckless thief? I'm on your side. I'm an undercover constable from Scotland Yard. Do you have Scotland Yard yet?

• Ashildr : I've had 800 years of adventure. Enough to fill a library if you write it down.

  The Doctor : [examining a crown in her study]  A medieval queen? How exciting!

  Ashildr : You'd think. It was paperwork and backgammon mainly as I recall.

• The Doctor : Oh, you remember Clara, do you?

  Ashildr : Of course. I take particular note of anyone's weaknesses.

• The Doctor : Oh, Ashildr Dotterweinar, what happened to you?

  Ashildr : You did, Doctor. You happened.

• The Doctor : I just wanted to save a terrified young woman's life.

  Ashildr : You don't save my life, Doctor. You trap me inside it.

• The Doctor : Oh hang on, if I didn't know better I'd say this was a robbery.

  Ashildr : I am robbing these people. You are getting out of my way.

  The Doctor : I just need one tiny little thing from out of this box.

  Ashildr : This is my robbery!

  The Doctor : Well can't we share it, isn't that what robbery is all about?
