"I am not the Doctor you thought I was. I am so far beyond you -- beyond anything you could understand. I am the future. I am four billion years old."
"It may occasionally look as though I'm making things up as I go along, but chance has nothing to do with it.
"Go and a part of you will always woner, what would have happened if I'd stayed? How could I have helped? What would I have learned?

Intelligence
The Doctor's intellect is by far his most powerful weapon, and the resource he uses most often when it comes to solving problems.
Using/Manipulating technology
- In the year 100 trillion he comes across a technological system that he's never seen anything like. In just a few minutes he manages to understand its basic function and get it working (cut out irrelevant scene in the middle)
- Donna Noble with the intelligence of the 10th Doctor disables the Reality Bomb (a multiverse destroying weapon) in less than five seconds. She then disables the weaponry of the Daleks (the race that made the reality bomb) and causes them all to spin uncontrollably. Then three versions of the 10th Doctor manage to teleport 26 planets back to the correct part of time and space. Finally, the metacrisis Doctor causes every Dalek to explode. Two things to note about this feat.
- It's implied that at least some of what Donna does is something the Doctor might not have figured out on his own, due to a combination of Time Lord and human ingenuity. However the only thing this is explicitly stated about is making the Daleks spin.
- This is admittedly done due to Donna and the Doctor having access to a Dalek console. However this was in Davros' vault, and the Doctor had earlier made a point that Davros was essentially imprisoned and not important to the Daleks so it's likely the console wasn't anything too important.
- Stabilizes an advanced piece of technology to keep it from exploding
- Repowers part of a crashed star ship... by kicking it in the right place
- Casually operates and analyzes 51st century technology

- Quickly puts together a device out of Tardis parts that would redirect the effects of the reality bomb solely on the Daleks. Though it is destroyed before he has a chance to use it.
- Using parts from a 1953 television shop, as well as one item from the Tardis, he creates a machine that traps an energy being inside of a video tape (which wouldn't be invented for multiple decades) in the few minutes it takes to run towards a television antenna. Though it does require a bit of repair work while it's being used.
- Creates a crude DNA scanner out of parts from a theater in the year 1930
- Quickly puts together an atmospheric converter that manages to ignite all of the poisonous gas surrounding the Earth. He then alters it to ignite Sontaran air, blowing up their ship once it's transported inside
- With just his sonic screwdriver, a laptop, and a cell phone manages to modify Tardis keys so that they remove whoever wears them from the perception of others.
- Uses spare parts from a wrecked starship and a 1000 year old cup to make a half destroyed bus fly. Also instructs a scientist how to shut down a wormhole over the phone
- Quickly modifies a weapon so that it can affect Time War Daleks, and the ninth Doctor once stated a single Time War Dalek was a threat to every living thing on Earth.

- While near death manages to disable an MRI which had been modified to release a magnetic pulse that would fry the brainstem of every living thing withing 250,000 miles
- Shuts down a parthenogenesis machine affecting a million people, though he does require extra materials once it goes to double strength
- Tricks the Family of Blood into thinking he's still human, and then causes their space ship to explode right in front of them without them even noticing what he's doing

- Talks down the Master from destroying the Earth

- Throughout the series he has a tendency to influence ordinary people into essentially killing themselves for him and a comment made by him implies this was at least somewhat intentional

- Realizes he's not alone in a room, and then identifies the source and size of a ticking sound based on its tone

- After the Master disables him and takes over the world, gives Martha a year long plan that manages to turn the Master's plans against him as well as restore the Doctor to full strength

- Diagnoses a man killed by witchcraft, and gives a period accurate explanation so that the people around him don't panic
- Greatly expands Laszlo's lifespan. For reference as a pig slave Laszlo originally only had a life span of a few weeks.

- Doesn't always think of the obvious solution
Skill
Spatial Awareness
