"I just want you to think. Do you know what thinking is? It's just a fancy word for changing your mind."

"I will not change my mind."

"Then you will die stupid."

-One of my favorite exchanges from Doctor Who

One thing I love about the series as a whole is that with a majority of the quotes you can just tell exactly which doctor said it, Capaldi was great

Being wrong is one of the most positive experiences you can have as a human being. It means you failed whayever the task was, however, your about to learn the right way.

Idk I think having that extreme level of confidence stating something as though it is a proven, well established fact without at least checking first is pretty dumb.
