Even the best of us are thrown off some- times.
Arthur Conan Doyle

Arthur Conan Doyle
Of all ghosts the ghosts of our old loves are the worst.
Arthur Conan Doyle
A fine horse or a beautiful woman, I cannot look at them unmoved, even now when seventy winters have chilled my blood.
Arthur Conan Doyle
Just as an octopus may have his den in some ocean cave, and come floating out a silent image of horror to attack a swimmer, so I picture such a spirit lurking in the dark of the house which he curses by his presence, and ready to float out upon all whom he can injure.
Arthur Conan Doyle
The more outré and grotesque an incident is the more carefully it deserves to be examined.
Arthur Conan Doyle

Arthur Conan Doyle
I must apologize for calling so late, said he, and I must further beg you to be so unconventional as to allow me to leave your house presently by scrambling over your back garden wall.
Arthur Conan Doyle
Only that I insist upon your dining with us. It will be ready in half an hour. I have oysters and a brace of grouse, with something a little choice in white wines. Watson, you have never yet recognized my merits as a housekeeper. ~ Sherlock Holmes
Arthur Conan Doyle
What can we know? What are we all? Poor silly half-brained things peering out at the infinite, with the aspirations of angels and the instinct of beasts.
Arthur Conan Doyle
We can't command our love, but we can our actions.
Arthur Conan Doyle
It has long been an axiom of mine that the little things are infinitely the most important.
Arthur Conan Doyle
My mind rebels at stagnation, give me problems, give me work!
Arthur Conan Doyle
Violence does, in truth, recoil upon the violent, and the schemer falls into the pit which he digs for another.
Arthur Conan Doyle
It is not that I think or believe, but that I know.
Arthur Conan Doyle
