God bless us! Why does fate always play such tricks on all living beings who are poor, impoverished, and helpless? Whenever I hear about cases like this, I think of Baxter's words and say, 'It was God's blessing that Sherlock Holmes was able to solve the case. ’. ——"The Mystery of Boscombe Vale"

God help us. Why does fate play such tricks with poor, helpless worms? I never hear of such a case as this that I do not think of Baxter's words, and say, 'There, but for the grace of God, goes Sherlock Holmes.'.—— The Boscombe Valley Mystery

We pursue, we want to seize. But what are we left with in the end? A phantom, or worse than a phantom—pain. ——"The Retired Colorman"

We reach. We grasp. And what is left in our hands at the end? A shadow. Or worse than a shadow — misery.—— The Retired Colorman

That's the lighthouse, my man! A beacon of the future! Each lighthouse is filled with thousands of brilliant little seeds, and Britain will be wiser and stronger in their generation in the future. ——"Naval Agreement"

Light-houses, my boy! Beacons of the future! Capsules with hundreds of bright little seeds in each, out of which will spring the wise, better England of the future.— — The Naval Treaty

...Ah, how lovely these roses are! ...Nothing in the world requires reasoning more than religion. ... Reasoning may be gradually established as a sophisticated subject by reasoning scholars. According to the law of reasoning, it seems to me that the highest belief we can have in the mercy of God is to be found in flowers. Because everything else: our abilities, our desires, our food, all are first and foremost necessary for survival. But this flower is completely different. Its fragrance and its color are embellishments of life, not conditions for survival. Only kindness can produce these extraordinary qualities. So I say again, humanity has great hopes in flowers.

——"Naval Agreement"

What a lovely thing a rose is!...There is nothing in which deduction is so necessary as in religion,...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. —— The Naval Treaty

Brother Watson! You are truly a constant in a changing time. The east wind will blow. Such winds have never blown in England. This wind will be very cold and very strong, Watson. When this wind blows, many of us may wither. But it is still the wind of God. After the storm has passed, a purer, better, and stronger land will stand under the sun. ——"Final Salute—The Closing Speech of Sherlock Holmes"

Good old Watson! You are the one fixed point in a changing age. There's an east wind coming all the same, such a wind as never blew on England yet. It will be cold and bitter, Watson, and a good many of us may wither before its blast. But it's God's own wind none the less, and a cleaner, better, stronger land will lie in the sunshine when the storm has cleared. Start her up, Watson, for it's time that we were on our way. I have a check for five hundred pounds which should be cashed early, for the drawer is quite capable of stopping it if he can. —— His Last Bow — An Epilogue of Sherlock Holmes

I disagree with some people who list humility as a virtue.

For logicians, everything is as it should be, and underestimating oneself is as contrary to truth as exaggerating one's talents. ——"Greek Translator"

I cannot agree with those who rank modesty among the virtues. To the logician all things should be seen exactly as they are, and to underestimate one`s self is as much a departure from truth as to exaggerate one`s own powers.—— The Greek Interpreter

It’s up to you to laugh and scold, I do it myself; I have thousands of treasures in my house, but I am the only one who rewards them. ——A Study in Scarlet, from the Roman Miser

Populus me sibilat, at mihi plaudo Ipse domi simul ac nummos contemplar in arca.——A Study in Scarlet, from the Roman Miser

God only created you in human form. It turns out that you are decent on the surface but rogue on the inside. ——The Sign of Four, lines of old Goethe

We are used to some people being sarcastic about things they don’t understand. ——The Sign of Four, Goethe

Wir sind gewohnt das die Menschen verhoehnen was sie nicht verstehen.——The Sign of Four, Goethe

For an impatient world Suffering with perseverance and patience is in itself a most precious example. "The Veiled Lodger"

The example of patient suffering is in itself the most precious of all lessons to an impatient world. ——The Veiled Lodger

Please come immediately if you have time Come - come even if there is no time. S.H. ——"The Creeping Man"

Come at once if convenient — if inconvenient come all the same. S. H. ——The Creeping Man

... Please think about those who pursue material, sensual and Those who enjoy worldly pleasures prolong their worthless lives, while those who pursue spiritual values ??are unwilling to violate their higher calling.

The result is the survival of the most unfit. In this way, doesn’t the world become a cesspool? ——"Crawling Man"

Consider, ...that the material, the sensual, the worldly would all prolong their worthless lives. The spiritual would not avoid the call to something higher. It would be the survival of the least fit. What sort of cesspool may not our poor world become? ——The Creeping Man

If a man tries to rise above nature, he will fall below nature. The highest man becomes an animal when he is separated from the broad road of human destiny. ——"Crawling Man"

When one tries to rise above Nature one is liable to fall below it. The highest type of man may revert to the animal if he leaves the straight road of destiny. ——The Creeping Man

1 There is nothing better than first-hand testimony. ——"Dark Red Research"

2 If a person's ideas are to explain nature, they must be as broad as nature. ——"Dark Red Research"

3 If you have detailed information on a thousand crimes and cannot solve the one thousand and first case, it is impossible. ——"Dark Red Research"

4 I think that a person's brain is like an empty attic at the beginning, and you must put in the furniture of your choice. A fool puts in any piece of wood he sees, leaving no room for potentially useful knowledge, or, at best, just cluttering it with other things so that it cannot be used when it is needed. Not easy to find out. Therefore, a skilled worker will be very careful about what he puts in the attic of his mind. He will only store tools that will help him in his work. Not only will he store many of these tools, but he will also arrange them in a very orderly manner. It would be a mistake to think that the walls of that small attic are elastic and can expand indefinitely. So sometimes you have to forget something you already know. Of course, the most important thing is: unless it is useful knowledge, don't save it. ——"Dark Red Research"

5 A fool can always find another person who is more genuine than him to worship him> ——"Dark Red Research"

6 For a person who has For an intelligent person, nothing is too small - "Dark Red Research"

7 When a fact contradicts a long series of reasoning, there must be other explanations. ——"Dark Red Research"

8 It is a mistake to confuse strangeness with mystery. ——"Dark Red Research"

9 The most common crime is often the most mysterious, because it has no novelty or specialness on which the inference is based. ——"Signatures of Four People"

10 In this world, it doesn't matter what you have done. The problem is that you can make others believe in what you have done.

11. Anything out of the ordinary is usually a clue rather than a hindrance.

12 Reasoning is, or should be, a precise science, and must therefore be treated with a cool, unemotional attitude.

13 Eliminate all other factors, and what remains is the fact.

14. The first principle is not to let your judgment be biased by your personal temperament.

15 Love is a type of emotion, and any emotion goes against the calm rationality that I value most. ——"Signatures of Four People"

16 It is a huge mistake to make inferences before there is no data. People will unconsciously distort facts to fit inferences rather than base their conclusions on facts. ——"A Scandal in Bohemia"

17 If you want to get unusual results or special experiences, people must face real life, and real life is far more challenging than any fantasy. ——"A Scandal in Bohemia"

18 What you don't understand is wonderful. ——"The Red-Haired Club"

19 The weirder a certain thing is, the less mysterious its result is. Common and featureless crimes are truly confusing, just as an ordinary face is the most difficult to recognize. ——"The Red-Haired Club"

20 Life is much more wonderful than anything the human mind can invent. Even just some of the things that exist in daily life, most of them are beyond our imagination. What if we could hold hands and fly out of the window, soar over this city, gently lift the roofs, and secretly watch all kinds of weird things happening, those wonderful coincidences, plans, and those strange things passed down from generation to generation? The succession of events, and their most extraordinary consequences, makes all novels with clichéd or predictable endings clichéd and meaningless. ——"The Mystery of Identity"

21 In order to make things more real, some choice and caution are necessary. ——"The Mystery of Identity"

22 Usually those less important events are particularly noteworthy and are often very attractive to investigators through causal analysis. Bigger crimes tend to be simpler because, generally speaking, the bigger the crime, the more obvious the motive. ——"The Mystery of Identity"

1. The first rule of criminal investigation is: You must look for every possible way to explain something, and then try to see if you can try to overturn it.

One should always look for a possible alternative and provide against it. It is the first rule of criminal investigation.

2. It is very wrong to confuse unusual things with mystery. .

It is a mistake to confound strangeness with mystery

3. It is a terrible mistake to make assumptions (arguments) without facts as a reference. People who feel incorrect are always Use facts to set your own inherent guesses (arguments), instead of deriving conclusions based on the obtained facts in the correct way to see whether it is consistent with the obtained facts.

It is a capital mistake to theorize. before one has data. Insensibly one begins to twist facts to suit theories, instead of theories to suit facts.

4. Nothing is more confusing than an obvious fact.

There is nothing more deceptive than an obvious fact

5. I never assume exceptions, exceptions will break the principles of investigation.

I never make an exception. An exception disproves the rule

6 You are watching, not observing.

You see, but you do not observe

7. Crime is common, but logic is rare. Therefore, when you think about it, you should pay more attention to the establishment of logic than the crime itself.

Crime is common. Logic is rare. Therefore, it is upon the logic rather than upon the crime that you should dwell.

8. Any solid facts are better than uncertain guesses.

Any truth is better than indefinite doubt

9. When solving this type of problem, the previously assumed viewpoint must be able to be established retroactively.

In solving a problem of this sort, the grant thing is to be able to reason backwards

10. The more bizarre the thing, the less secret it usually contains.

The more bizarre a thing is, the less mysterious it proves to be

11. Some people who lack talent have an extraordinary ability to inspire others (that is, to bless themselves) )The power of inspirationSome people without possessing genius have a remarkable power of stimulating it

12. I never guess. That is a bad habit that destroys thinking...

I never guess . It is a shocking habit

13. In view of this, I would like to say that nothing is more unusual and worth studying than ordinary things.

Depend upon it, there is nothing so unnatural as the commonplace

14. I understand things for a living. Maybe I have trained myself to see through things that others have seen but ignored.

It is my business to know things. Perhaps, I have trained myself to see what others overlook.

15. You can never predict what any single person will do, but you can do to mankind Accurate qualitative evaluation. Individual cases may always be exceptions, but in general, that's it.

You can never foretell what any one man will do, but you can say with precision what an average number will be up to. Individuals vary, but percentages remain constant

16. Fear comes from imagination (or fear comes from the unknown?)

Where there is no imagination, there is no horror.

My constitution is very special. I don't feel tired at all when I'm working, but it would make me exhausted if I was idle.

I have a curious constitution. I never remember feeling tired by work, though idleness exhausts me completely.

I am very active and restless. When I have nothing to do, I will become restless.

My mind rebels at stagnation.

I pursue spiritual excitement.

I crave for mental exaltation.

I cannot live without brainwork. What else is there to live for?

Even the best women can never be completely trusted.

Women are never to be entirely trusted - not the best of them.

But love is an emotional thing, which is inconsistent with the calm thinking that I think is the most important thing. . I would never marry for fear of clouding my judgment.

Love is an emotional thing, and whatever is emotional is opposed to that true cold reason which I place above all things. I should never marry myself, least I bias my judgment.

The influence of emotions affects the waking mind.

The emotional qualities are antagonistic to clear reasoning.

Remove other factors, and what remains must be the fact.

Eliminate all other factors, and the one, which remains, must be the truth.

Haven't I told you so many times that when you put absolutely impossible factors After everything is removed, no matter what is left - no matter how unbelievable it is - is that the truth?

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

Detection is-or should be a Exact science should be approached with the same dispassionate rather than emotional approach.

Detection is, or ought to be, an exact science and should be treated in the same cold and unemotional manner.

I never make any exceptions. There are no exceptions to the law.

I never make exceptions. An exception disproves the rule.

Winwood Read has a good explanation of this problem. He argued that although each person is a difficult mystery, when humans are gathered together, there are laws.

For example, you cannot predict a person's personality, but you can definitely know the human nature. Personalities are different, but personality is eternal. This is what statisticians say.

Winwood Reade is good upon the subject. He remarks that, while the individual man is an insoluble puzzle, in the aggregate he becomes a mathematical certainty. You can, for example, never foretell what any one man will do, but you can say with precision what an average number will be up to. Individuals vary, but percentages remain constant. So says the statistician.

I never guess. Guessing is a very bad habit and is harmful to logical reasoning.

I never guess. It is a shocking habit -- destructive to the logical faculty

I can find out about everything. They are as smart as a needle, seamless. They just lack organization.
