Sherlock Holmes Quotations“That you, Lestrade?” said Holmes. “Yes, Mr. Holmes. I took the job myself. It's good to see you back in London, sir.” “I think you want a little unofficial help. Three undetected murders in one year won't do, Lestrade. But you handled the Molesey Mystery with less than your usual — that's to say, you handled it fairly well.” — Sherlock Holmes and Lestrade, in “The Adventure of the Empty House” <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/SherlockHolmes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SherlockHolmes</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/quote" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#quote</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/mystery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mystery</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/quotation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#quotation</a>

Sherlock Holmes Quotations“You interest me very much, Mr. Holmes. I had hardly expected so dolichocephalic a skull or such well-marked supra-orbital development. Would you have any objection to my running my finger along your parietal fissure? A cast of your skull, sir, until the original is available, would be an ornament to any anthropological museum. It is not my intention to be fulsome, but I confess that I covet your skull.” — Dr Mortimer, to Sherlock Holmes, in “The Hound of the Baskervilles” <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/SherlockHolmes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SherlockHolmes</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/quote" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#quote</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/mystery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mystery</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/quotation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#quotation</a>

Sherlock Holmes Quotations“Well, Holmes,” I murmured, “have you found anything out?” He stood beside me in silence, his candle in his hand. Then the tall, lean figure inclined towards me. “I say, Watson,” he whispered, “would you be afraid to sleep in the same room with a lunatic, a man with softening of the brain, an idiot whose mind has lost its grip?” “Not in the least,” I answered in astonishment. “Ah, that's lucky,” he said, and not another word would he utter that night. — From “The Valley of Fear” <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/SherlockHolmes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SherlockHolmes</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/quote" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#quote</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/mystery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mystery</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/quotation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#quotation</a>

DrWebEpisode 314: 52 Weeks | 52 Sherlock Holmes Novels – I Hear of Sherlock Everywhere<a href="https://www.ihearofsherlock.com/2025/07/episode-314-52-weeks-52-sherlock-holmes.html?utm_source=feedblitz&utm_medium=FeedBlitzEmail&utm_campaign=Weekly_%272025-07-19%2007:15:00%27&utm_content=740755" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"></a>The number of Sherlock Holmes pastiches is endless. They include stories and novels set in any era, any place, and any time. They all bring the Great Detective to new audiences — so how do you go about selecting (just) fifty-two to explore? Join our conversation with Paul Bishop as we explore his new book, <a href="https://amzn.to/3Ixva0x" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">52 Weeks | 52 Sherlock Holmes Stories</a>. Paul is the author of 15 novels and numerous TV and film scripts — and also a 35-year veteran of the Los Angeles Police Department.Paul’s new book is a selection of Sherlockian pastiches chosen and recommended by the individual essay writers themselves. Beyond the plots and author bios, Paul’s writers give personal perspectives on why these stories were important to them, and the connection Sherlock Holmes has played in their lives. Paul also discusses his writing career, which spans multiple genres including screenplays, westerns and other novels. He discusses his journey as an author, and how storytelling has shaped his life. We also talk about connecting with fellow writers, and the remarkable variety of people drawn to Sherlock Holmes.Some of those remarkable people will be gathering in person and virtually in the weeks ahead, so you will want to hear about August events in “The Learned Societies” segment. Madeline Quiñones is back with “A Chance of Listening,” and the Canonical Couplet quiz tests your Sherlock Holmes knowledge, with a copy of Paul’s book for the winner.

Sherlock Holmes Quotations“There is nothing in which deduction is so necessary as in religion,” said he, leaning with his back against the shutters. “It can be built up as an exact science by the reasoner. Our highest assurance of the goodness of Providence seems to me to rest in the flowers. All other things, our powers, our desires, our food, are all really necessary for our existence in the first instance. But this rose is an extra. Its smell and its color are an embellishment of life, not a condition of it. It is only goodness which gives extras, and so I say again that we have much to hope from the flowers.” — Sherlock Holmes, in “The Adventure of the Naval Treaty” <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/SherlockHolmes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SherlockHolmes</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/quote" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#quote</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/mystery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mystery</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/quotation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#quotation</a>

Poe was the first to react. “Gorgeous. The colors are like Evangeline’s smile.”TM spoke next, “Tis a bonny sight.”Looking out over the moor, they saw a thrice-arched rainbow, its colors crisp as a midwinter frost. And as if coming through a divine gate, a flock of polled sheep walked under its arch, attended by shepherds in sunshine yellow mackintoshes and dancing dogs.“Amazing. Truly remarkable,” Holmes said.“Of all God’s creations, the rainbow is among the most wondrous,” said Watson, “but I never expected to hear you marvel at one.” “The refraction of light through water droplets is scientifically interesting,” Holmes replied, “and while rare triple arches are not unheard of. But that’s not what I meant. Look there, note the shepherd in the well-worn light-green slouch hat. Oxford man. Theology, if I’m not mistaken.
