Never ignore a coincidence. Unless you're busy, in which case, always ignore a coincidence.
Steven Moffat
Sherlock Holmes can be wise and funny. He wasn't, at the beginning. But later on, he's got a bantering relationship with loads of people. He's got a wisdom that he didn't have in the early stage. But he stays on the mountain top, and he will die up there. He's not going to change that.
Steven Moffat
