The Life of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle Quotes

“He took as well as gave, but what he gave was unique. He had a curious precision of statement, a delicate flavour of humour, and a trick of small gestures to illustrate his meaning, which were peculiar to himself. The effect cannot be reproduced, but I remember how in discussing the wars of the future he said: “A chemist on each side will approach the frontier with a bottle” — his upraised hand and precise face conjuring up a vivid and grotesque picture.”
― Michael Coren, The Life of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
