Quotes 

• Krail : You must come and live with us.

  Polly Wright : But we cannot live with you! You're different. You've got no feelings.

  Krail : Feelings? I do not understand that word.

  The Doctor : Emotions. Love. Pride. Hate. Fear. Have you no emotions, sir?

  Krail : Come to Mondas and you will have no need of emotions. You will become like us.

  [Mondas is draining Earth of its energy] 

  Cyberman : You must come and live with us.

  Polly : But we cannot live with you, you're... you're different, you've got no feelings.

  Cyberman : Feelings? I do not understand that word.

  The Doctor : Emotions! Love, pride, hate, fear! Have you no emotions, sir?

  Cyberman : Come to Mondas and you will have no need of emotions. You will become like us.

  Polly : Like you?

  Cyberman : We have freedom from disease, protection against heat and cold, true mastery. Do you prefer to die in misery?

  Polly : But look, surely I... it's possible for us not to lose Earth's energy?

  Cyberman : It is inevitable.

  Polly : Then you don't mind if we all die.

  Cyberman : Why should we mind?

  The Doctor : [outraged]  WHY? WHY?

  Polly : Because millions and millions of people are going to suffer and die horribly!

  Cyberman : We shall not be affected.

  Polly : Don't you think of anything except yourselves?

  Cyberman : We are equipped to survive. We are only interested in survival. Anything else is of no importance. Your deaths will not affect us.

  Polly : But I can't make you understand, you're condemning us all to die! Have you no heart?

  Cyberman : No, that is one of the weaknesses that we have removed.

• [last words before regeneration] 

  The Doctor : What did you say, my boy? "It's all over?" That's what you said... but it isn't at all. It's far from being all over...

• [the Doctor and his companions have landed at a tracking station at the South Pole] 

  The Doctor : We don't intend you any harm General, I can assure you of that.

  General Cutler : You can assure me of what you like but whether I'll believe you or not is another question.

  [the Doctor snorts as Cutler turns away] 

  General Cutler : [to a nearby soldier]  I haven't got time to deal with these now, but when I do you'd better have a good explanation.

  The Doctor : I don't like your tone, sir.

  General Cutler : And I don't like your face, nor your hair!
