Arthur Conan Doyle
Life is infinitely stranger than anything which the mind of man could invent.
Arthur Conan Doyle
He is not a bad fellow, though an absolute imbecile in his profession. He has one positive virtue. He is as brave as a bulldog and as tenacious as a lobster if he gets his claws upon anyone.
Arthur Conan Doyle
“How ever did you see that?” “Because I looked for it.”
Arthur Conan Doyle
Sir Walter, with his 61 years of life, although he never wrote a novel until he was over 40, had, fortunately for the world, a longer working career than most of his brethren.
Arthur Conan Doyle
Education never ends, Watson. It is a series of lessons, with the greatest for the last.
Arthur Conan Doyle
