Arthur Conan Doyle
It is not that I think or believe, but that I know.
Arthur Conan Doyle
It is horrible, yet fascinating, this struggle between a set purpose and an utterly exhausted frame.
Arthur Conan Doyle
It is of the highest importance in the art of detection to be able to recognise out of a number of facts which are incidental and which are vital.
Arthur Conan Doyle
So all life is a great chain, the nature of which is known whenever we are shown a link of it.
Arthur Conan Doyle
I wanted to end the world but,I'll settle for ending yours.
Arthur Conan Doyle
The fair sex is your department.
Arthur Conan Doyle
It is stupidity rather than courage to refuse to recognize danger when it is close upon you.
Arthur Conan Doyle
