Quotes 

  • Dr. John H. Watson : May I ask, sir, what precautions you've taken against it?

    John Winthrop : What would one do? How does one fight a myth? Well, what's your opinion, Mr. Holmes? Should I take this matter serioiusly?

    Sherlock Holmes : You are obviously taking it seriously by defying it - by coming down here to prove it doesn't exist.

    John Winthrop : By Jove, I hadn't thought of it like that. You're dead right, of course, but let me put it like this. Do you really think that the legend is dangerous?

    Sherlock Holmes : You're obviously overlooking the second conclusion, sir. If the legend is real and beyond our understanding, then your life my threatened by the supernatural. If we rule that out and the threat has a very realistic source, in either case the threat remains.
