  Androgar : I don't understand. What is the Moment? I've never heard of it.

  The General : The galaxy eater. The final work of the ancients of Gallifrey. A weapon so powerful the operating system became sentient. According to legend, it developed a conscience.

  Androgar : And we've never used it?

  The General : How do you use a weapon of ultimate mass destruction when it can stand in judgement on you? There is only one man who would even try.

• The General : We'd be lost in another universe. Frozen in a single moment. We'd have nothing.

  Eleventh Doctor : You would have hope, and right now that is exactly what you don't have!
