Arthur Conan Doyle

Arthur Conan Doyle
The future was with Fate. The present was our own.
Arthur Conan Doyle
Indeed, I cannot think why the whole bed of the ocean is not one solid mass of oysters, so prolific the creatures seem. Ah, I am wandering! Strange how the brain controls the brain! What was I saying, Watson?
Arthur Conan Doyle
To all the world he was the man of violence, half animal and half demon but to her he always remained the little wilful boy of her own girlhood, the child who had clung to her hand. Evil indeed is the man who has not one woman to mourn him.
Arthur Conan Doyle

Arthur Conan Doyle
The fair sex is your department.
Arthur Conan Doyle
Come what may, I am bound to think that all things are ordered for the best though when the good is a furlong off, and we with our beetle eyes can only see three inches, it takes some confidence in general principles to pull us through.
Arthur Conan Doyle
The grand thing is to be able to reason backwards.
Arthur Conan Doyle
The chief proof of man's real greatness lies in his perception of his own smallness.
Arthur Conan Doyle
I am not the law, but I represent justice so far as my feeble powers go.
Arthur Conan Doyle
It was an ideal spring day, a light blue sky, flecked with little fleecy white clouds drifting across from west to east. The sun was shining very brightly, and yet there was an exhilarating nip in the air, which set an edge to a man's energy.
Arthur Conan Doyle
We can't command our love, but we can our actions.
Arthur Conan Doyle
When people bury treasure nowadays they do it in the Post-Office bank.
Arthur Conan Doyle
I cannot live without brainwork. What else is there to live for
Arthur Conan Doyle
