More from Arthur Conan Doyle
"There is nothing more stimulating than a case where everything goes against 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."
"I have always been a seeker of truth, however uncomfortable it may be."
"The lowest and vilest alleys in London do not present a more dreadful record of sin than does the smiling and beautiful countryside."
"It is stupidity rather than courage to refuse to recognize danger when it is close upon you."
About Arthur Conan Doyle (1859-1930)
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.
