Quotes:

• 'My name is Sarah Jane Smith, and once, I travelled among the stars. I saw worlds beyond imagination, I went to places beyong my wildest dreams and met creatures beyond my wildest nightmares, and all of it was amazing. Then one day when I wasn't expecting it, I came home. Life changed, more than I could ever have believed possible. Now, I have a son, even a family of sorts. Life is good on Bannerman Road, even if you sometimes have to work at a weekend.' - Sarah Jane
• 'Oh, well, I'll take that as a "no comment", then, shall I?' - Sarah, gleefully being thrown out of Genetec
• 'As I said, my life changed - but I love my job, and my life. Because despite all the amazing things I saw on other planets, I've learned that living on earth can be just as exciting. If you keep your eyes and mind open, you'll find extraordinary things happen everywhere - even on your street. Because once you've seen the universe for real, nothing ever looks quite the same again.' - Sarah Jane
• 'I do not answer to humans!' 'You crashed, and let some creature that has already destroyed twelve planets loose on our world. I think you answer to all of us, Captain Tybo!' - Tybo and Sarah
• 'It was an alien, not a monster. Aliens - they're people, just like us. They just look a bit different, that's all.' - Sarah
• 'Why can't you be quiet? I needed a body to hide in, not a conscience!' 'Everyone has a conscience, Androvax, even you. You've just buried it so deep down, you can't hear it any more. But I'm here now - and remember, that wasn't my choice!' - Androvax and Sarah
• 'I almost feel sorry for Androvax. All alone, and so angry at the universe.' 'The universe is about destruction, he said. Ultimately, everything is about death.' 'But that's only part of the truth. Parts of the universe are dying all the time - planets, stars, people. But the amazing part is that it isn't the end, it's only the beginning, of something new and exciting being born.' - Sarah and Luke
• 'We live in Bannerman Road - what's going to happen to us?' 'Oh, that's the wonderful thing about the universe - you just never know.' - Haresh and Sarah
