Now, let me tell you something about the Doctor. The Doctor is like God – he doesn’t exist and he isn’t going to come and save us. We are all alone in the night and there are monsters lurking around. They’ll come and get you quicker, than you’ll be able to say “Cthulhu fhtagn!”. That is the truth, not the blue boxes falling from the sky.
Of course, they say the Doctor is why UNIT was created,. Or Torchwood. Oh, I believe they just need a myth. They need to believe in that mysterious man from the distant future coming to save them, like the other people need to believe in God, granting them happy afterlife. Or in Santa Claus. I don’t believe in each of them.
All this times, when we started our wars, when we killed each other, where was the Doctor? All those abducted people, all those horror aliens brought upon us – where was he then? He didn’t come and he will not, so we shouldn’t wait, we should do something! Because we are able to: we survived in spite of all, to face our enemies and our fears and become stronger.
That’s what I believe in: humanity. We may be a bunch of bastards, but let me tell you: there are things out there worse than us. I’ve seen them, I know them better, than anyone, believe me. And the fact that in spite of that our planet still exists – yes, that is a miracle more stunning, than all the myths we created.
