More quotes by Arthur Conan Doyle

Arthur Conan Doyle
The Press, Watson, is a most valuable institution, if you only know how to use it.
Arthur Conan Doyle
He seems to have declared war on the King’s English as well as on the English king.
Arthur Conan Doyle
Some facts should be suppressed, or, at least, a just sense of proportion should be observed in treating them.
Arthur Conan Doyle

Arthur Conan Doyle
Healthy scepticism is the basis of all accurate observation.
Arthur Conan Doyle

Arthur Conan Doyle
The world is big enough for us. No ghosts need apply.
Arthur Conan Doyle
There are times, young fellah, when every one of us must make a stand for human right and justice, or you never feel clean again.
Arthur Conan Doyle
Several incidents in my life have convinced me of spiritual interposition - of the promptings of some beneficent force outside ourselves, which tries to help us where it can.
Arthur Conan Doyle
It is a capital mistake to theorize before you have all the evidence. It biases the judgment.
Arthur Conan Doyle
A trusty comrade is always of use and a chronicler still more so.
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
It isn't true that the laws of nature have been capriciously disturbed that snakes have talked that women have been turned into salt that rods have brought water out of rocks.
Arthur Conan Doyle
Great sorrow or great joy should bring intense hunger--not abstinence from food, as our novelists will have it.
Arthur Conan Doyle
Crime is common. Logic is rare. Therefore it is upon the logic rather than upon the crime that you should dwell.
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
