"It is stupidity rather than courage to refuse to recognize danger when it is close upon you."
"I consider that a man's brain originally is like a little empty attic, and you have to stock it with such furniture as you choose."
"Education never ends, Watson. It is a series of lessons, with the greatest for the last."
"I have a trade of my own. I suppose I am the only one in the world. I’m a consulting detective, if you can understand what that is."
"The greatest evil is indifference."
Scottish physician and author whose Sherlock Holmes (created 1887) became the most-portrayed literary character in film and television history. Closely associated with G.K. Chesterton (Father Brown detective creator and Edwardian contemporary) and Wilkie Collins (earlier detective-fiction predecessor (The Moonstone)). For an intellectual contrast, see Harry Houdini, American escape artist and skeptic — Houdini publicly debunked the spiritualist mediums Doyle endorsed; Doyle insisted Houdini was secretly using real psychic powers. Their 1920s friendship-then-feud is the cleanest 'magician's debunking vs Sherlock-Holmes-author's credulity' irony in cultural history — the rationalist's creator believed the impossible.
