Life is infinitely stranger than anything which the mind of man could invent.

If in 100 years I am only known as the man who invented Sherlock Holmes then I will have considered my life a failure.

Arthur Conan Doyle 469 quotes

My name is Sherlock Holmes. I...

My name is Sherlock Holmes. It is my business to know what other people do not know.

Arthur Conan Doyle 469 quotes

When the spirits are low, whe...

When the spirits are low, when the day appears dark, when work becomes monotonous, when hope hardly seems worth having, just mount a bicycle and go out for a spin down the road, without thought on anything but the ride you are taking.

Arthur Conan Doyle 469 quotes

The world is full of obvious ...

The world is full of obvious things which nobody by any chance ever observes.

Arthur Conan Doyle 469 quotes

The most dangerous condition ...

The most dangerous condition for a man or a nation is when his intellectual side is more developed than his spiritual. Is that not exactly the condition of the world today?

…but it is better to learn wisdom late than never to learn it at all.

Arthur Conan Doyle 469 quotes

His ignorance was as remarkable as his knowledge.

Arthur Conan Doyle 469 quotes

Depend upon it there comes a time when for every addition of knowledge you forget something that you knew before. It is of the highest importance, therefore, not to have useless facts elbowing out the useful ones.

Arthur Conan Doyle 469 quotes

Of all ghosts the ghosts of our old loves are the worst.

Arthur Conan Doyle 469 quotes

How often have I said to you that when you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth?

Arthur Conan Doyle 469 quotes

You will, I am sure, agree with me that... if page 534 only finds us in the second chapter, the length of the first one must have been really intolerable.

Arthur Conan Doyle 469 quotes

Our ideas must be as broad as Nature if they are to interpret Nature.

Arthur Conan Doyle 469 quotes

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 469 quotes

It is stupidity rather than courage to refuse to recognize danger when it is close upon you.

Arthur Conan Doyle 469 quotes

The lowest and vilest alleys ...

The lowest and vilest alleys of London do not present a more dreadful record of sin than does the smiling and beautiful countryside.

Arthur Conan Doyle 469 quotes

As a rule, said Holmes, the more bizarre a thing is the less mysterious it proves to be. It is your commonplace, featureless crimes which are really puzzling, just as a commonplace face is the most difficult to identify.

Arthur Conan Doyle 469 quotes

Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth.

Arthur Conan Doyle 469 quotes

Violence does, in truth, recoil upon the violent, and the schemer falls into the pit which he digs for another.
