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
Some facts should be suppressed, or, at least, a just sense of proportion should be observed in treating them.
Arthur Conan Doyle
There is nothing as deceptive as an obvious fact.
Arthur Conan Doyle
Violence does, in truth, recoil upon the violent, and the schemer falls into the pit which he digs for another.
Arthur Conan Doyle
When a doctor does go wrong he is the first of criminals. He has nerve and he has knowledge.
Arthur Conan Doyle
When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth.
Arthur Conan Doyle
Where there is no imagination there is no horror.
Arthur Conan Doyle

Arthur Conan Doyle
