So what you’re saying is, the whole world revolves around you?
I'll let The Doctor explain, he does it better.
Rose Marion Tyler is a fictional character portrayed by Billie Piper in the long-running British science fiction television series Doctor Who. She was the primary traveling companion of the ninth incarnation of the Doctor until, in The Parting of the Ways, she absorbed the energies of the time vortex, and called herself "the Bad Wolf", defeating the Daleks and their plans to conquer the universe, resurrecting Jack Harkness who had died fighting them, and prompting the Doctor to absorb the fatal energies from her with a kiss, resulting in his need to regenerate into his tenth incarnation.

- Rose: I am the Bad Wolf. I create myself. I take the words; I scatter them in time and space —[the words "BAD WOLF" detach from the Corporation's sign on the opposite wall and fly off] — a message to lead myself here.
- The Doctor: Rose, you've got to stop this! You've got to stop this now! [pause] You've got the entire Vortex running through your head! You're gonna burn!
- Rose: I want you safe. My Doctor, protected from the false god.
- Rose: I can see everything. All that is. All that was. All that ever could be.
- The Doctor: [gets up suddenly] That's what I see, all the time. And doesn't it drive you mad?

- Rose: Then.... why can't we go?
- The Doctor: Maybe you will, and maybe I will. But not like this.
- Rose: You're not making sense!
- The Doctor: I might never make sense again! I might have two heads, or no head. Imagine me with no head! And don't say that's an improvement. But it's a bit dodgy, this process. You never know what you're gonna end up with.
- [The Doctor is suddenly wracked by intense pain.]
- Rose: Doctor!!
- The Doctor: Stay away!!

- The Doctor: Yeah, I'm doing it now. See, Time Lords have this little trick, it's sort of a way of cheating death. Except.... it means I'm gonna change. And you're not gonna see me again. Not like this. Not with this daft old face. And before I go —
- Rose: Don't say that!
- The Doctor: Rose, before I go, I just wanna tell you: you were fantastic, absolutely fantastic. And you know what? — So was I!

- Rose: What, Doctor?
