Doctor Who: Some Rose Tyler Quotes

[rabid1st]

I was off looking for a quote about Rose for a buddy of mine and I came across a whole sheaf of them. Since, I love having my OTP acknowledged...I thought I would share these again, I'm sure I've shared most of them before...but those who say Moff hates Rose...need to see the last one.

“From the moment they meet, the Doctor and Rose are soul mates. They understand and complement each other.” – Russell T Davies
“What Rose brings to the Doctor’s life is completion. It’s completing a circle – he’s male, he’s alien, he’s a traveler. Between the two of them together they complement each other and discover each other. And are in love with each other – absolutely, unashamedly, unreservedly.” – Russell T Davies
“It’s a love story…it’s like love at first sight, in a way.” – Christopher Eccleston
“The Doctor is literally thrown into this bizarre new circumstance before he’s properly gotten himself together after saying farewell to Rose, who was the love of his life.” – David Tennant
“I think Rose was unique in the sense that she loved him and he loved her back. And it was more than just a hint, it was deeply emotional.” – Freema Agyeman
“The Doctor and Rose love each other. I think it’s that simple.” – Euros Lyn
“She’s the one woman, the one human, that can make him better – that can make him a bigger character, a better man.” – Julie Gardner
“From first holding the Doctor’s hand to a farewell on a beach, Rose is the Doctor’s reason to fight, to endure, to ensure there’s light in the darkness. Together they can achieve anything. As Episode 9 describes it, they are the stuff of legends.” – Julie Gardner
"If Rose is over there and she's all you want in the universe, and you're desparate to get to her, you want to be able to run flat out" - David Tennant
"There they are on a Dalek ravaged street, the furthest distance apart, her with a big gun, him with the TARDIS and they run toward one another...like the biggest romance you've ever seen in your life." -- Russell T Davies

“Obviously and quite overtly, really, the subtext of this show is that the Doctor is hopelessly in love with Rose.” – Steven Moffat

And to Moff's credit, he never tries to make the Doctor hopelessly in love with anyone else. He does have a bad case of my companion is fancier and more dazzling and capable than any other, but (and perhaps this is simply because he can't write epic love stories)...he never lets his Doctor emotionally engage beyond a passionate sort of interest in others. Eleven is fascinated by the quirky charming mystery of River (and Amy and Clara, as well) but he doesn't love any of them in the way that Nine and Ten loved Rose. There is no danger of his becoming desparate to reach them if they appear on a distant street corner.

I think Moff is bitter, but it is the same narcissism story that it always was, I think. Basically, he's upset because nobody appreciates his genius. Nobody understands him. I get that he is lonely and feels entitled, but he needs to stop messing up this show. He's just out of control now. River knows every Doctor. Amy has a time lady daughter who IS River. Clara has been helping every Doctor. And we have the Doctor's resting place and his entire time line up for manipulation. Can't Moff just write a story of his own?

I do think he goes to the fanfiction sites and mines them for ideas. Sadly, he always ends up back in his own idea about rewriting all of time to suit his own ego. Le Sigh!
