АСЯ-ЯСА Надеюсь, что тебе пригодится
Где стырил, не помню, но это было ооочень давно.
О любви и женщинах:читать дальшеShe has flown to tea as an agitated woman will. (CROO)
она попросила чаю, что говорит о расстроенных чувствах. по-моему, в переводе совсем не звучит
I have never loved, Watson, but if I did and if the woman I loved had met such an end, I might act even as our lawless lion-hunter has done. (DEVI)
Я никогда не любил, Уотсон, но если бы мою любимую постигла такая судьба, возможно, я поступил бы так же, как наш охотник на львов, презирающий законы.
Evil indeed is the man who has not one woman to mourn him. (HOUN)
Поистине чудовищем должен быть человек, если не найдется женщины, которая оплачет его смерть!
Oscillation upon the pavement always means an affaire du coeur. (IDEN)
Нерешительность у дверей всегда свидетельствует о сердечных делах.
When a woman has been seriously wronged by a man she no longer oscillates, and the usual symptom is a broken bell wire. (IDEN)
Если женщину глубоко оскорбили, она уже не колеблется и, как правило, обрывает звонок.
Woman's heart and mind are insoluble puzzles to the male. Murder might be condoned or explained, and yet some smaller offense might rankle. (ILLU)
Женское сердце и женский разум - неразрешимая загадка для мужчины. Они могут простить и объяснить убийство, и в то же время какой-нибудь мелкий грешок способен причинить им мучительные страдания.
One of the most dangerous classes in the world is the drifting and friendless woman. (LADY)

Women have seldom been an attraction to me, for my brain has always governed my heart (LION)
Я мало увлекался женщинами, ибо сердце мое всегда было в подчинении у головы.
It is a pity he did not write in pencil. As you have no doubt frequently observed, Watson, the impression usually goes through - a fact which has dissolved many a happy marriage. (MISS)
Жаль, что он не писал карандашом. Вы ведь, Уотсон, не раз, наверное, замечали, что буквы, написанные карандашом, четко отпечатываются на следующем листе - это обстоятельство разрушило немало счастливых браков.
A man always finds it hard to realize that he may have finally lost a woman's love, however badly he may have treated her. (MUSG)
Мужчина, как бы скверно не поступил он с женщиной никогда не верит, что ее любовь окончательно потеряна для него.
Jealousy is a strange transformer of characters. (NOBL)
Однако ревность иногда совершенно меняет характер человека.
When a woman thinks that her house is on fire, her instinct is at once to rush to the thing which she values most. . . A married woman grabs at her baby - an unmarried one reaches for her jewel box. (SCAN)
Когда женщина думает, что у нее в доме пожар, инстинкт заставляет ее спасать то, что ей всего дороже... Замужняя женщина спасает ребенка, незамужняя -- шкатулку с драгоценностями.
Women are naturally secretive, and they like to do their own secreting. (SCAN)
Женщины по своей природе склонны к таинственности и любят окружать себя секретами.
She is the daintiest thing under a bonnet on this planet. (SCAN)
Она самое прелестное существо из всех, носящих дамскую шляпку на этой планете.
Now, Watson, the fair sex is your department. (SECO)
Ну, Уотсон, прекрасный пол - это уж по вашей части.
And yet the motives of women are so inscrutable . . . Their most trivial action may mean volumes, or their most extraordinary conduct may depend upon a hairpin or a curling-tongs. (SECO)
Женщин вообще трудно понять... За самым обычным поведением женщины может крыться очень многое, а ее замешательство иногда зависит от шпильки или щипцов для завивки волос...
Women are never to be entirely trusted - not the best of them. (SIGN)
Женщинам никогда нельзя доверять полностью, даже лучшим из них.
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, lest I bias my judgment. (SIGN)
Но любовь - вещь эмоциональная, и, будучи таковой, она противоположна чистому и холодному разуму. А разум я, как известно, ставлю превыше всего. Что касается меня, то я никогда не женюсь, чтобы не потерять ясности рассудка.
The emotional qualities are antagonistic to clear reasoning. (SIGN)
Эмоции враждебны чистому мышлению.
It is part of the settled order of Nature that such a girl should have followers. (SOLI)
Что ж, это естественно, что у такой девушки есть поклонники.
This may be some trifling intrigue and I cannot break my other important research for the sake of it. (SOLI)
В конце концов, возможно, что это какая-нибудь пустяковая интрижка, и я не могу ради нее прерывать важное расследование.
I have seen too much not to know that the impression of a woman may be more valuable than the conclusion of an analytical reasoner. (TWIS)
Я человек опытный и знаю, что женское непосредственное чутье может быть иногда ценнее всяких логических выводов.
I am not a whole-souled admirer of womankind. (VALL)
Я не восторженный поклонник женского пола.
Should I ever marry, Watson, I should hope to inspire my wife with some feeling which would prevent her from being walked off by a housekeeper when my corpse was lying within a few yards of her. (VALL)
забавно, но в переводе А.Москвина www.sbnet.ru/books/eng/Doyle/1/vfear.ru.txt этот кусок вообще отсутствует. Переводчик, видно вообще считает, что Холмс не может предположить наличие у себя жены.
И вздумай я когда-нибудь жениться, Уотсон, льщу себя надеждой, что сумел бы внушить моей жене довольно чувства, чтобы никакая экономка не увела бы ее прочь от моего распростертого за дверью трупа. (перевод И.Бернштейн)
No woman would ever send a reply-paid telegram. She would have come. (WIST)
Женщина никогда бы не послала телеграммы с оплаченным ответом. Просто приехала бы.О преступлениях и законе:читать дальшеOnce or twice in my career, I feel that I have done more real harm by my discovery of the criminal than ever he had done by his crime. I have learned caution, and I had rather play tricks with the law of England than with my own conscience.(ABBE)
В первый или во второй раз за всю мою карьеру я чувствую, что, раскрыв преступника, я причиню больший вред, чем преступник своим преступлением. Я научился быть осторожным, и уж лучше я согрешу против законов Англии, чем против моей совести.
After all Watson, I am not retained by the police to supply their deficiencies. (BLUE)
В конце концов, Уотсон, я работаю отнюдь не затем, чтобы исправлять промахи нашей полиции.
I suppose that I am commuting a felony, but it is just possible that I am saving a soul. (BLUE)
Возможно, я укрываю мошенника, но зато спасаю его душу.
It is fortunate for this community that I am not a criminal. (BRUC)
Счастье для лондонцев, что я не преступник.
My dear fellow, you shall keep watch in the street. I'll do the criminal part. (BRUC)
Дорогой мой, вам надо будет постоять на улице, посторожить, только и всего. Всю противозаконную деятельность беру на себя.
But, if you'll hand it over - well, I'll compound a felony.(MAZA)
Но если вы его вернете, я вам обещаю, что дело не дойдет до суда.
I suppose I shall have to compound a felony as usual. (3GAB)
Думаю, в данном случае придется отказаться от судебного преследования и потребовать компенсации.
I am not the law, but I represent justice so far as my feeble powers go. (3GAB)
Хотя я и не олицетворяю закон, но, насколько мне позволяют ограниченные мои полномочия, я являюсь представителем правосудия.
I don't mind confessing to you that I have always had an idea that I would have made a highly efficient criminal. This is the chance of my lifetime in that direction. (CHAS)
Признаюсь, Уотсон, я всегда думал, что из меня вышел бы замечательный преступник.
Man, or at least criminal man, has lost all enterprise and originality. (COPP)
Человек, или по крайней мере преступник, утратил предприимчивость и самобытность.
My sympathies are with the criminals rather than with the victim.(CHAS)
Мои симпатии на стороне преступников, а не их жертвы.
I think that there are certain crimes which the law cannot touch, and which therefore, to some extent, justify private revenge.(CHAS)
По-моему, есть преступления, на которые не распространяется закон. Личная месть бывает иногда справедлива.
It is not for me, my dear Watson, to stand in the way of the official police force. I leave them all the evidence which I found. (DEVI)
Становиться на пути полиции не в моих правилах, Уотсон. Я оставил им все улики.
In over a thousand cases I am not aware that I have ever used my powers upon the wrong side. (FINA)
Я принимал участие в тысяче с лишним дел и убежден, что никогда не злоупотреблял своим влиянием, помогая неправой стороне.
He is the Napoleon of crime, Watson. (FINA)
Он -- Наполеон преступного мира, Уотсон.
A complex mind. All great criminals have that. (ILLU)
From the point of view of the criminal expert, London has become a singularly uninteresting city since the death of the late lamented Professor Moriarty. (NORW)
A criminal who was capable of such a thought is a man whom I should be proud to do business with. (PRIO)
When a man embarks upon a crime, he is morally guilty of any other crime which may spring from it. (PRIO)
He was still living under the shield of British law, and I have no doubt, inspector, that you will see that, though that shield may fail to guard, the sword of justice is still there to avenge. (RESI)
There being no fear of interruption I proceded to burgle the house. Burglary has always been an alternative profession, had I cared to adopt it, and I have little doubt that I should have come to the front. (RETI)
My business is that of every other good citizen - to uphold the law. (SHOS)
A clever counsel would tear it all to rags.(SILV)
I will represent the official police until their arrival. (SOLI)
Fancy his having the insolence to confound me with the official detective force.(SPEC)
When a doctor does go wrong, he is the first of criminals. He has nerve and he has knowledge.(SPEC)
There are no crimes and no criminals in these days. What is the use of having brains in our profession? I know well that I have it in me to make my name famous. No man lives or has ever lived who has brought the same amount of study and of natural talent to the detection of crime which I have done. And what is the result? There is no crime to detect, or, at most, some bungling villainy with a motive so transparent that even a Scotland Yard official can see through it.(STUD)
If criminals would always schedule their movements like railway trains, it would certainly be more convenient for all of us.(VALL)
The English law is in the main a just law. (VALL)
Legally, we are putting ourselves hopelessly in the wrong, but I think that it is worth it. (YELL)
I am not the law, but I represent justice so far as my feeble powers go. (3GAB)
I should much prefer that you called in the aid of the police.(3STU)
О докторе Уотсоне:читать дальшеWatson, you are a British jury, and I have never met a man who was more eminently fitted to represent one. (ABBE)
Вы, Уотсон, - английский суд присяжных, - я не знаю человека, который был бы более достоин этой роли.
The same old Watson! You never learn that the gravest issues may depend upon the smallest things. (CREE)
Все тот же старый Уотсон! Как вы не научитесь понимать, что в основе серьезнейших выводов порой лежат сущие мелочи!
Good, Watson! You always keep us flat-footed on the ground. (CREE)
Превосходно, Уотсон! С вами всегда стоишь обеими ногами на земле.
Excellent, Watson! Compound of the Busy Bee and Excelsior. We can but try - the motto of the firm. (CREE)
Браво, Уотсон! Не то стишок для самых маленьких, не то поэма Лонгфелло. Девиз фирмы: "Риск - благородное дело".
Fact are facts, Watson, and after all you are only a general practitioner with very little experience and mediocre qualifications. (DYIN)
Вы, Уотсон, в конце концов только обычный врач, с очень ограниченным опытом и квалификацией.
You mean well, Watson. Shall I demonstrate your own ignorance? (DYIN)
Вы мне желаете добра, Уотсон. Но хотите, я докажу вам ваше невежество?
It may be that you are not yourself luminous, but you are a conductor of light. Some people without possessing genius have a remarkable power of stimulating it. (HOUN)
Если от вас самого не исходит яркое сияние, то вы, во всяком случае, являетесь проводником света. Мало ли таких людей, которые, не блистая талантом, все же обладают недюжинной способностью зажигать его в других!
Good old Watson! You are the one fixed point in a changing age. (LAST)
Эх, старина Уотсон! В этом переменчивом веке вы один не меняетесь.
Your morals don't improve, Watson. You have added fibbing to your other vices. (MAZA)
В моральном отношении вы нисколько не изменились к лучшему, Уотсон. Ко всем вашим старым порокам добавился еще один - вы научились лгать.
You are the stormy petrel of crime, Watson! (NAVA)
Вы буревестник преступлений, Уотсон.
With your natural advantages, Watson, every lady is your helper and accomplice. (RETI)
При вашем врожденном обаянии, Уотсон, каждая женщина вам сообщница и друг.
I am lost without my Boswell. (SCAN)
Что я стану делать без моего биографа?
I never get your limits, Watson. There are unexplored possibilities about you. (SUSS)
Никогда не знаешь, чего от вас ожидать, Уотсон. В вас залежи еще не исследованных возможностей.
I am getting into your involved habit, Watson, of telling a story backward. (THOR)
Я, кажется, перенял вашу привычку, Уотсон, рассказывать историю с конца.
You have a grand gift of silence, Watson. It makes you quite invaluable as a companion. (TWIS)
Вы наделены великим талантом молчания, Уотсон. Благодаря этой способности вы незаменимый товарищ.
Oh, a trusty comrade is always of use; and a chronicler still more so. (TWIS)
Верный товарищ всегда полезен, особенно если он записывает наши истории.
You are developing a certain unexpected vein of pawky humour, Watson, against which I must learn to guard myself. (VALL)
В вас, Уотсон, скрывается неожиданная жилка едкого юмора. Вас надо остерегаться!
There is an appalling directness about your questions, Watson. They come at me like bullets. (VALL)
Какие невероятно прямолинейные вопросы вы задаете, Уотсон. Они бьют навылет, как пули.
Mrs. Merrilow does not object to tobacco, Watson, if you wish to indulge your filthy habits. (VEIL)
Если и вы не в силах бороться со своими вредными привычками, Уотсон, можете курить, наша гостья не возражает.
I suppose, Watson, we must look upon you as a man of letters. (WIST)
Полагаю. Уотсон, вас теперь можно считать литератором.О себе, любимом:читать дальшеHow slow-witted I have been, and how nearly I have committed the blunder of my lifetime! (ABBE)
My name is Sherlock Holmes. It is my business to know what other people don't know. (BLUE)
The air of London is sweeter for my presence. (FINA)
That hurts my pride, Watson. It is a petty feeling, no doubt, but it hurts my pride. (FIVE)
I have been beaten four times - three times by men and once by a woman. (FIVE)
I take a short cut when I can get it. (GOLD)
What has become of any brains that God has given me? (LADY)
My well of English seems to be permanently defiled. (LAST)
I have taken to living by my wits. (MUSG)
I read nothing except the criminal news and the agony column. The latter is always instructive. (NOBL)
I am a poor man. (PRIO)
My life is spent in one long effort to escape from the commonplaces of existence. (REDH)
Don't be hurt, my dear fellow. You know that I am quite impersonal. (RETI)
I have a curious constitution. I never remember feeling tired by work, though idleness exhausts me completely. (SIGN)
My mind rebels at stagnation. Give me problems, give me work, give me the most abstruse cryptogram or the most intricate analysis, and I am in my own proper atmosphere. I can dispense then with artificial stimulants. But I abhor the dull routine of existence. I crave for mental exaltation. (SIGN)
I cannot live without brainwork. What else is there to live for? (SIGN)
Because I made a blunder, my dear Watson - which is, I am afraid, a more common occurrence than anyone would think who only knew me through your memoirs. (SILV)
I have a turn both for observation and for deduction. (STUD)
I am the most incurably lazy devil that ever stood in shoe leather - that is, when the fit is on me, for I can be spry enough at times. (STUD)
I get in the dumps at times, and don't open my mouth for days on end. You must not think I am sulky when I do that. Just let me alone, and I'll soon be right. (STUD)
I think, Watson, that you are now standing in the presence of one of the absolute fools in Europe. (TWIS)
I confess that I have been as blind as a mole, but it is better to learn wisdom late than never to learn it at all. (TWIS)
Would you be afraid to sleep in the same room with a lunatic, a man with softening of the brain, an idiot whose mind has lost its grip? (VALL)
ЕГО философия:читать дальшеWhy 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." (BOSC)
What object is served by this circle of misery and violence and fear? It must tend to some end, or else our universe is ruled by chance, which is unthinkable. But what end? There is the great standing perennial problem to which human reason is as far from an answer as ever. (CARD)
You look at these scattered houses, and you are impressed by their beauty. I look at them, and the only thought which comes to me is a feeling of their isolation and of the impunity with which crime may be committed there.. . . They always fill me with a certain horror. It is my belief, Watson, founded upon my experience, that the lowest and vilest alleys in London do not present a more dreadful record of sin than does the smiling and beautiful countryside. . . .The reason is obvious. The pressure of public opinion can do in the town what the law cannot accomplish. There is no lane so vile that the scream of a tortured child, or the thud of a drunkard's blow, does not beget sympathy and indignation among the neighbors, and then the whole machinery of justice is ever so close that a word of complaint can set it going, and there is but a step between the crime and the dock. But look at these lonely houses, each in its own fields, filled for the most part with poor ignorant folk who know little of the law. Think of the deeds of hellish cruelty, the hidden wickedness which may go on, year in, year out, in such places, and none the wiser. (COPP)
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. (CREE)
Consider, Watson, 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 become the survival of the least fit. What sort of cesspool may not our poor world become (CREE)
Work is the best antidote to sorrow. (EMPT)
There are some trees, Watson, which grow to a certain height and then suddenly develop some unsightly eccentricity. You will see it often in humans. I have a theory that the individual represents in his development the whole procession of his ancestors, and that such a sudden turn to good or evil stands for some strong influence which came into the line of his pedigree. The person becomes, as it were, the epitome of the history of his own family. (EMPT)
It is stupidity rather than courage to refuse to recognize danger when it is close upon you. (FINA)
Intense mental concentration has a curious way of blotting out what has passed. (HOUN)
Life is infinitely stranger than anything which the mind of man could invent. (IDEN)
There is as much sense in Hafiz as in Horace, and as much knowledge of the world. (IDEN)
You may have noticed how extremes call to each other, the spiritual to the animal, the cave-man to the angel. (ILLU)
Stand with me here upon the terrace, for it may be the last quiet talk that we shall ever have. (LAST)
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. (LAST)
There is nothing in which deduction is so necessary as in religion. It can be build 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 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. (NAVA)
It is a very cheering thing to come into London by any of these lines which run high and allow you to look down upon the houses like this. Look at those big, isolated clumps of buildings rising above the slates, like brick islands in a lead-colored sea. . . Lighthouses, my boy! Beacons of the future! Capsules, with hundreds of bright little seeds in each, out of which will spring the wiser, better England of the future. (NAVA)
It is always a joy to meet an American, Mr. Moulton, for I am one of those who believe that the folly of a monarch and the blundering of a minister in far-gone years will not prevent our children from being some day citizens of the same world-wide country under a flag which shall be a quartering of the Union Jack with the stars and stripes. (NOBL)
The work is its own reward. (NORW)
Is not all life pathetic and futile? Is not his story a microcosm of the whole? We reach. We grasp. And what is left in our hands at the end? A shadow. Or worse than a shadow - misery. (RETI)
There is nothing new under the sun. It has all been done before. (STUD)
What you do in this world is a matter of no consequence. The question is, what can you make people believe that you have done? (STUD)
Everything comes in circles ....... The old wheel turns, and the same spoke comes up. It's all been done before, and will be again. (VALL)
The ways of fate are indeed hard to understand. If there is not some compensation hereafter, then the world is a cruel jest. (VEIL)
Your life is not your own. Keep your hands off it. . . . The example of patient suffering is in itself the most precious of all lessons to an impatient world. (VEIL)
But there are always some lunatics about. It would be a dull world without them. (3GAB) Об образовании и знании:читать дальшеThe ideal reasoner would when he has once been shown a single fact in all its bearing, deduce from it not only all the chain of events which led up to it, but also all the results which would follow from it. (FIVE)
The observer who has thoroughly understood one link in a series of incidents, should be able accurately to state all the other ones, both before and after. (FIVE)
Problems may be solved in the study which have baffled all those who have sought a solution by the aid of their senses. To carry the art, however, to its highest pitch, it is necessary that the reasoner should be able to utilize all the facts which have come to his knowledge, and this in itself implies, as you will readily see, a possession of all knowledge, which, even in these days of free education and encyclopaedias, is a somewhat rare accomplishment. (FIVE)
It is not so impossible, however, that a man should possess all knowledge which is likely to be useful to him in his work, and this, I have endeavoured in my case to do. (FIVE)
A man should keep his little brain attic stocked with all the furniture that he is likely to use, and the rest he can put away in the lumber-room of his library where he can get it if he wants it. (FIVE)
If the art of the detective began and ended in reasoning from an armchair, my brother would be the greatest criminal agent that ever lived. (GREE)
I am an omnivorous reader with a strangely retentive memory for trifles. (LION)
Education never ends, Watson. It is a series of lessons, with the greatest for the last. (REDC)
It is a hobby of mine to have an exact knowledge of London. (REDH)
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. A fool takes in all the lumber of every sort that he comes across, so that the knowledge which might be useful to him gets crowded out, or at best is jumbled up with a lot of other things, so that he has a difficulty in laying his hands upon it. Now the skilful workman is very careful indeed as to what he takes into his brain-attic. He will have nothing but the tools which may help him in doing his work, but of these he has a large assortment, and all in the most perfect order. It is a mistake to think that that little room has elastic walls and can distend to any extent. Depend upon it - there comes a time when for every addition of knowledge you forget something that you knew before. It is of the highest importance, therefore, not to have useless facts elbowing out the useful ones. (STUD)
From a drop of water a logician could infer the possibility of an Atlantic or a Niagra without having seen or heard of one or the other. So all life is a great chain, the nature of which is known whenever we are shown a link of it. (STUD)
Like all other arts, the science of deduction and analysis is one which can only be acquired by long and patient study, nor is life long enough to allow any mortal to attain the highest possible perfection in it. Before turning to those moral and mental aspects of the matter which present the greatest difficulties, let the inquirer begin by mastering more elementary problems. Let him, on meeting a fellow-mortal, learn at a glance to distinguish the history of man, and the trade or profession to which he belongs. Puerile as such an exercise may seem, it sharpens the faculties of observation, and teaches one where to look and what to look for. (STUD)
What the deuce is it (the solar system) to me? You say that we go round the sun. If we went round the moon it would not make a pennyworth of difference to me or my work. (STUD)
All knowledge comes useful to the detective. (VALL)
Breadth of view is one of the essentials of our profession. The interplay of ideas and the oblique uses of knowledge are often of extraordinary interest. (VALL)
In my profession all sorts of odd knowledge comes useful, and this room of yours is a storehouse of it. (3GAR) О своем, профессиональном:читать дальшеEliminate all other factors, and the one which remains must be the truth. (SIGN)
How often have I said to you that when you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth? (SIGN)
It is an old maxim of mine that when you have excluded the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth. (BERY)
When you have eliminated all which is impossible, then whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth. (BLAN)
We must fall back upon the old axiom that when all other contingencies fail, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth. (BRUC)
It is impossible as I state it, and therefore I must in some respect have stated it wrong. (PRIO)
Improbable as it is, all other explanations are more improbable still. (SILV)
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. (SCAN)
It is a capital mistake to theorize in advance of the facts. (SECO)
It is a capital mistake to theorize before you have all the evidence. It biases the judgment. (STUD)
You know my method. It is founded upon the observation of trifles. (BOSC)
I am an omnivorous reader with a strangely retentive memory for trifles. (LION)
I have no time for trifles. (STUD)
It is, of course, a trifle, but there is nothing so important as trifles. (TWIS)
At present I am, as you know, fairly busy, but I propose to devote my declining years to the composition of a textbook which shall focus the whole art of detection into one volume. (ABBE)
I have investigated many crimes, but I have never yet seen one which was committed by a flying creature. (BLAC)
I understand, however, from the inquest that there were some objects which you failed to overlook. (BLAC)
Have you tried to drive a harpoon through a body? No? Tut, tut, my dear sir, you must really pay attention to these details. (BLAC)
One should always look for a possible alternative and provide against it. It is the first rule of criminal investigation. (BLAC)
Here is my lens. You know my methods. (BLUE)
One the contrary, Watson, you can see everything. You fail, however, to reason from what you see. You are too timid in drawing your inferences. (BLUE)
Singularity is almost invariably a clue. The more and featureless and commonplace a crime is, the more difficult it is to bring it home. (BOSC)
Circumstantial evidence is a very tricky thing. It may seem to point very straight to one thing, but if you shift your own point of view a little, you may find it pointing in an equally uncompromising manner to something entirely different. (BOSC)
There is nothing more deceptive than an obvious fact. (BOSC)
I should prefer that you do not mention my name at all in connection with the case, as I choose to be only associated with those crimes which present some difficulty in their solution. (CARD)
We approached the case, you remember, with an absolutely blank mind, which is always an advantage. We had formed no theories. We were simply there to observe and to draw inferences from our observations. (CARD)
There is no part of the body which varies so much as the human ear. (CARD)
There is nothing so unnatural as the commonplace. (IDEN)
It has long been an axiom of mine that the little things are infinitely the most important. (IDEN)
Never trust to general impressions, my boy, but concentrate yourself upon details. My first glance is always at a woman's sleeve. In a man, it is perhaps better to take the knee of the trouser. (IDEN)
Crime is common. Logic is rare. Therefore it is upon the logic rather than upon the crime that you should dwell. (COPP)
What do the public, the great unobservant public, who could hardly tell a weaver by his tooth or a compositor by his left thumb, care about the finer shades of analysis and deduction! (COPP)
Always look at the hands first, Watson. Then cuffs, trouser-knees, and boots. (CREE)
There I was stretched, when you, my dear Watson, and all your following were investigating in the most sympathetic and inefficient manner the circumstances of my death. At last, when you had formed your inevitable and totally eroneous conclusions, you departed for the hotel, and I was left alone.(EMPT)
It would be difficult to name any articles which afford a finer field for inference than a pair of glasses, especially so remarkable a pair as these. (GOLD)
There is nothing more stimulating than a case where everything goes against you. (HOUN)
The world is full of obvious things which nobody by any chance ever observes. (HOUN)
We balance probabilities and choose the most likely. It is the scientific use of the imagination. (HOUN)
The most difficult crime to track is the one which is purposeless. (NAVA)
Circumstantial evidence is occassionally very convincing, as when you find a trout in the milk, to quote Thoreau's example. (NOBL)
The more bizarre a thing is the less mysterious it proves to be. It is your commonplace, featureless crimes which are really puzzling, just as a commplace face is the most difficult to identify. (REDH)
It is of the highest importance in the art of detection to be able to recognize out of a number of facts which are incidental and which vital. Otherwise your energy and attention must be dissipated instead of being concentrated. (REIG)
You may not be aware that the deduction of a man's age from his writing is one which has been brought to considerable accuracy by experts. In normal cases one can place a man in his true decade with tolerable confidence. (REIG)
It is true that though in your mission you have missed everything of importance, yet even those things which have obtruded themselves upon your notice give rise to serious thought. (RETI)
You see, but you do not observe. (SCAN)
Detection is, or ought to be, an exact science and should be treated in the same cold and unemotional manner. (SIGN)
I never make exceptions. An exception disproves the rule. (SIGN)
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. (SIGN)
I never guess. It is a shocking habit -- destructive to the logical faculty. (SIGN)
Inspector Gregory, to whom the case has been committed, is an extremely competent officer. Were he but gifted with imagination he might rise to great heights in his profession. (SILV)
One true inference invariably suggests others. (SILV)
By a man's finger-nails, by his coat-sleeve, by his boots, by his trouser-knees, by the callosities of his forefinger and thumb, by his exprеssion, by his shirt-cuff - By each of these things a man's calling is plainly revealed. That all united should fail to enlighten the competent inquirer in any case is almost inconceivable. (STUD)
There is a strong family resemblance about misdeeds, and if you have all the details of a thousand at your finger ends, it is odd if you can't unravel the thousand and first. (STUD)
Now, in my opinion, Dupin was a very inferior fellow. That trick of his of breaking in on his friends' thoughts with an apropos remark after a quarter of an hour's silence is really very showy and superficial. He had some analytical genius, no doubt; but he was by no means such a phenomenon as Poe appeared to imagine.(STUD)
It is a mistake to confound strangeness with mystery. The most commonplace crime is often the most mysterious, because it presents no new or special features from which deductions may be drawn. (STUD)
When a fact appears to be opposed to a long train of deductions, it invariably proves to be capable of bearing some other interpretation. (STUD)
Lecoq was a miserable bungler. He had only one thing to recommend him, and that was his energy. That book made me positively ill. The question was how to identify and unknown prisoner. I could have done it in twenty-four hours. Lecoq took six months or so. It might be made a textbook for detectives to teach them what to avoid.(STUD)
If a herd of buffaloes had passed along, there could not be a greater mess.(STUD)
With two such men as yourself and Lestrade upon the ground, there will not be much for a third party to find out. (STUD)
There is nothing like first-hand evidence. (STUD)
In solving a problem of this sort, the grand thing is to be able to reason backwards. That is a very useful accomplishment, and a very easy one, but people do not practise it much. In the everyday affairs of life it is more useful to reason forward, and so the other comes to be neglected. There are fifty who can reason synthetically for one who can reason analytically. (STUD)
There is no branch of detective science which is so important and so much neglected as the art of tracing footsteps.(STUD)
We must look for consistency. Where there is want of it we must suspect deception. (THOR)
The faculty of deduction is certainly contagious. (THOR)
Where a crime is coolly premeditated, then the means of coverting it are coolly premeditated also. (THOR)
There are many ciphers which I would read as easily as I do the apocrypha of the agony column; such crude devices amuse the intelligence without fatiguing it. (VALL)
There are no better instruments than discharged servants with a grievance, and I was lucky enough to find one (WIST)
Any truth is better than indefinite doubt. (YELL) О природе и животных:читать дальшеA dog reflects the family life. Whoever saw a frisky dog in a gloomy family, or a sad dog in a happy one? Snarling people have snarling dogs, dangerous people have dangerous ones. (CREE)
Of late I have been tempted to look into the problems furnished by nature rather than those more superficial ones for which our artificial state of society is responsible. (FINA)
That the dog should die was after the beautiful, faithful nature of dogs. (LION)
A draghound will follow aniseed from here to John O'Groat's, and our friend, Armstrong, would have to drive through the Cam before he would shake Pompey off his trail. (MISS)
There is a wonderful sympathy and freemasonry among horsey men. Be one of them and you will know all that there is to know. (SCAN)
Dogs don't make mistakes. (SHOS)
The horse is a very gregarious creature. (SILV)
One's ideas must be as broad as Nature if they are to interpret Nature. (STUD)
With a spud, a tin box, and an elementary book on botany, there are instructive days to be spent. (WIST) Всякое разное:читать дальшеCome, Watson, come! The game is afoot. Not a word! Into your clothes and come! (ABBE)
Hopkins has called me in seven times, and on each occasion his summons has been entirely justified. (ABBE)
Perhaps when a man has special knowledge and special powers like my own, it rather encourages him to seek a complex explanation when a simpler one is at hand. (ABBE)
What I know is unofficial; What he knows is official. I have the right to private judgment, but he has none. He must disclose all, or he is a traitor to his service. (ABBE)
Vox populei, vox Dei. (ABBE)
You owe a very humble apology to that noble lad, your son, who has carried himself in this matter as I should be proud to see my own son do, should I ever chance to have one. (BERY)
There, Watson, this infernal case had haunted me for ten days. I hereby banish it completely from my presence. (BLAC)
There can be no question, my dear Watson, of the value of exercise before breakfast. (BLAC)
It is a question of cubic capacity. A man with so large a brain must have something in it. (BLUE)
When you see a man with whiskers of that cut and the Pink Un protruding out of his pocket, you can always draw him by a bet. (BLUE)
It is always awkward doing business with an alias. (BLUE)
Chance has put in our way a most singular and whimsical problem, and its solution is its own reward. (BLUE)
Local aid is always either worthless or else biased. (BOSC)
According to my experience it is not possible to reach the platform of a Metropolitan train without exhibiting one's ticket. (BRUC)
I play the game for the game's own sake. (BRUC)
Although he [Lestrade] is absolutely devoid of reason, he is as tenacious as a bulldog when he once understands what he has to do. (CARD)
I've had to do with fifty murderers in my career, but the worst of them never gave me the repulsion which I have for this fellow. (CHAS)
To the man who loves art for its own sake, it is frequently in its least important and lowliest manifestations that the keenest pleasure is to be derived. (COPP)
I confess that it is not the situation which I should like to see a sister of mine apply for. (COPP)
I can't make bricks without clay. (COPP)
I am glad of all details, whether they seem to you to be relevant or not. (COPP)
My dear Watson, you as a medical man are continually gaining light as to the tendencies of a child by the study of the parents. Don't you see that the converse is equally valid. I have frequently gained my first real insight into the character of parents by studying their children. (COPP)
We can but try. (CREE)
Come at once if convenient - if inconvenient come all the same. (CREE)
Sorry to see that you've had the British workman in the house. He's a token of evil. (CROO)
It is one of those instances where the reasoner can produce an effect which seems remarkable to his neighbor, because the latter has missed the one little point which is the basis of the deduction. (CROO)
I have no desire to make mysteries, but it is impossible at the moment of action to enter into long and complex explanations. (DANC)
What one man can invent, another can discover. (DANC)
The Cornish horror - strangest case I have handled. (DEVI)
To let the brain work without sufficient material is like racing an engine. It racks itself to pieces. (DEVI)
Well, Watson, we seem to have fallen upon evil days. (DYIN)
If you approach me, Watson, I shall order you out of the house. (DYIN)
Because it is my desire. Is that not enough? (DYIN)
I wonder how a battery feels when it pours electricity into a non-conductor. (DYIN)
Indeed, I cannot think why the whole bed of the ocean is not one solid mass of oysters, so prolific the creatures seem. (DYIN)
Malingering is a subject upon which I have sometimes thought of writing a monograph. (DYIN)
My correspondence is a varied one and I am somewhat upon my guard against any packages which reach me. (DYIN)
When we have finished at the police-station I think that something nutritious at Simpson's would not be out of place. (DYIN)
It is no joke when a tall man has to take a foot off his stature for several hours on end. (EMPT)
Well then, about that chasm. I had no serious difficulty in getting out of it, for the very simple reason that I never was in it. (EMPT)
I trust that age doth not wither nor custom stale my infinite variety. (EMPT)
Journeys end in lovers' meetings. (EMPT), (REDC)
My collection of M's is a fine one. (EMPT)
My dear Watson, there we come into those realms of conjecture where the most logical mind may be at fault. (EMPT)
In the morning you will send for a hansom, desiring your man to take neither the first nor the second which may present itself. (FINA)
I am pleased to think that I shall be able to free society from any further effects of his presence, though I fear that it is at a cost which will give pain to my friends, and especially, my dear Watson to you. (FINA)
And that recommendation, with the exaggerated estimate of my ability with which he prefaced it, was, if you will believe me, Watson, the very first thing which ever made me feel that a profession might be made out of what had up to that time been the merest hobby. (GLOR)
Run down, my dear fellow, and open the door, for all virtuous folk have been long in bed. (GOLD)
Art in the blood is liable to take the strangest forms. (GREE)
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. (GREE)
Some of my most interesting cases have come to me in this way through Mycroft. (GREE)
I think of writing another little monograph some of these days on the typewriter and its relation to crime. It is a subject to which I have devoted some little attention. (IDEN)
I thought of her for the moment as I would have thought of a daughter of my own. (ILLU)
The wages of sin, Watson - the wages of sin! (ILLU)
Thrice is he armed who hath his quarrel just. (LADY)
Might I trouble you to open the window, for chloroform vapour does not help the palate. (LAST)
It would brighten my declining years to see a German cruiser navigating the Solent according to the minefield plans which I have furnished. (LAST)
Here is the fruit of my leisured ease, the magnum opus of my latter years! (LAST)
Though unmusical, German is the most expressive of all languages. (LAST)
The Englishman is a patient creature, but at present his temper is a little inflamed and it would be as well not to try him too far. (LAST)
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. (LAST)
The faculties become refined when you starve them. Why, surely, as a doctor, my dear Watson, you must admit that what your digestion gains in the way of blood supply is so much lost to the brain. I am a brain, Watson. The rest of me is a mere appendix. Therefore, it is the brain I must consider. (MAZA)
We can make the world a better place by laying them by the heels. (MAZA)
But that is not what I am out for. It's the stone I want. (MAZA)
You live in a different world to me, Mr. Overton - a sweeter and healthier one. My ramifications stretch out into many sections of society, but never, I am happy to say, into amateur sport, which is the best and soundest thing in England. (MISS)
There is so much red tape in these matters. (MISS)
They have the crown down at Hurlstone - though they had some legal bother and a considerable sum to pay before they were allowed to retain it. I am sure that if you mentioned my name they would be happy to show it to you. (MUSG)
Out of my last fifty-three cases, my name has only appeared in four, and the police have had all the credit in forty-nine. (NAVA)
He's a fine fellow. But he has a struggle to keep up his position. He is far from rich, and has many calls. You noticed, of course, that his boots had been re-soled. (NAVA)
Mrs. Hudson has risen to the occasion. Her cuisine is a little limited, but she has as good an idea of breakfast as a Scotchwoman. (NAVA)
Watson here will tell you that I never can resist a touch of the dramatic. (NAVA)
I have a peculiar taste in these matters. (NAVA)
This looks like one of those unwelcome social summonses which call upon a man either to be bored or to lie. (NOBL)
My correspondence has certainly the charm of variety, and the humbler are usually the more interesting. (NOBL)
I assure you, Watson, without affectation, that the status of my client is a matter of less moment to me than the interest of his case. (NOBL)
Do not dream of going, Watson, for I very much prefer having a witness, if only as a check to my own memory. (NOBL)
American slang is very expressive sometimes. (NOBL)
Have a cigarette, Mr. McFarlane. Beyond obvious facts that you are an asthmatic, I know nothing whatever about you. (NORW)
There is no prospect of danger, or I should not dream of stirring out without you. (NORW)
All my instincts are one way, and all the facts are the other, and I much fear that British juries have not yet attained that pitch of intelligience when they will give the preference to my theories over Lestrade's facts. (NORW)
I am familiar with forty-two different impressions left by tires. (PRIO)
This case deserves to be a classic. (PRIO)
It is the second most interesting object that I have seen in the North. (PRIO)
Dear me! What a chorus of groans, cries and bleatings! What a rag-bag of singular happenings! . . . Bleat, Watson, unmitigated bleat! (REDC)
It is art for art's sake (REDC), (RETI)
I observe that there is a good deal of German music on the program, which is rather more to my taste than Italian or French. It is introspective and I want to introspect. (REDH)
He is in my judgment, the fourth smartest man in London, and for daring I am not sure that he has not a claim to be third. (REDH)
We are spies in an enemy's country. (REDH)
I hardly looked at his face. His knees were what I wished to see. (REDH)
My life is spent in one long effort to escape from the commonplace of existence. (REDH)
I am afraid that my explanation may disillusion you, but it has always been my habit to hide none of my methods, either from my friend Watson of from anyone who might take an intelligent interest in them. (REIG)
The fates are against you, Watson. (REIG)
Watson, I think our quiet rest in the country has been a distinct success and I shall certainly return, much invigorated, to Baker Street to-morrow. (REIG)
These are much deeper waters than I had thought. (REIG)
The features are given to man as the means by which he shall express his emotions, and yours are faithful servants. (RESI)
Cut out the poetry, Watson. (RETI)
Things must be done decently and in order. (RETI)
Ambereley excelled at chess - one mark, Watson, of a scheming mind. (RETI)
He felt so clever and so sure of himself that he imagined no one could touch him. He could say to any suspicious neighbor, "Look at the steps I have taken. I have consulted not only the police, but even Sherlock Holmes." (RETI)
There's money in this case, Watson, if there is nothing else. (SCAN)
You are two of the most busy men in the country and in my own small way I have also a good many calls upon me. I regret exceedingly that I cannot help you in this matter, and any continuation of this interview would be a waste of time. (SECO)
If it's on the market I'll buy it - If it means another penny on the income-tax. (SECO)
Only one important thing has happened in the last three days, and that is that nothing has happened. (SECO)
Come, friend Watson, the curtain rings up for the last act. (SECO)
We also have our diplomatic secrets. (SECO)
You do occasionally find a carrion crow among the eagles. (SHOS)
Nothing clears up a case so much as stating it to another person. (SILV)
See the value of imagination. It is the one quality which Gregory lacks. (SILV)
The Press, Watson, is a most valuable institution, if you know how to use it. (SIXN)
It was a straight left against a slogging ruffian. I emerged as you see me. Mr. Woodley went home in a cart. (SOLI)
Mrs. Hudson has been knocked up. (SPEC)
As to reward, my profession is its reward; but you are at liberty to defray whatever expenses I may be put to, at the time which suits you best. (SPEC)
These are very deep waters. (SPEC)
An Eley's No. 2 is an excellent argument with gentlemen who can twist steel pokers into knots. (SPEC)
It's a wicked world, and when a clever man turns his brain to crime it is the worst of all. (SPEC)
In this way I am no doubt responsible indirectly for Dr. Grimesby Roylott's death, and I cannot say that it is likely to weigh very heavily upon my conscience. (SPEC)
Results without causes are much more impressive. (SPEC)
I've found it. I've found it. I have found a re-agent which is precipitated by hemoglobin, and by nothing else. (STUD)
How are you? You have been in Afghanistan, I perceive. (STUD)
I have to be careful, for I dabble with poisons a good deal.
I have my eye on a suite in Baker Street. (STUD)
The theories which I have expressed, and which appear to you to be so chimerical, are really extremely practical - so practical that I depend upon them for my bread and cheese. (STUD)
I suppose I am the only one in the world. I'm a consulting detective, if you can understand what that is. (STUD)
I listen to their story, they listen to my comments, and then I pocket my fee.(STUD)
It was easier to know it than to explain why I know it. If you were asked to prove that two and two made four, you might find some difficulty, and yet you are quite sure of the fact.(STUD)
Gregson is the smartest of the Scotland Yarders. He and Lestrade are the pick of a bad lot.(STUD)
Supposing I unravel the whole matter, you may be sure that Gregson, Lestrade and Co. will pocket all the credit. That comes of being an unofficial personage. (STUD)
They say that genius is an infinite capacity for taking pains. It's a very bad definition, but it does apply to detective work. (STUD)
You know that a conjurer gets no credit when once he has explained his trick; and if I show you too much of my method of working, you will come to the conclusion that I am a very ordinary individual after all. (STUD)
There's the scarlet thread of murder running through the colorless skein of e life, and our duty is to unravel it, and isolate it, and expose every inch of it. (STUD)
What's that little thing of Chopin's she plays so magnificently? Tra-la-la-lira-lira-lay. (STUD)
The mere sight of an official-looking person seals men's lips. These youngsters however, go everywhere and hear everything. They are as sharp as needles too; all they want is organization. (STUD)
This Agency stands flat-footed upon the ground, and there it must remain. (SUSS)
We must not let him think that this agency is a home for the weak-minded. (SUSS)
It's a wicked thing to tell fibs. (3GAB)
You can't play with edged tools forever without cutting those dainty hands. (3GAB)
Possess our souls in patience and make as little noise as possible (VALL)
Well, we can only possess our souls in patience until this excellent inspector comes back for us. (WIST)
All my instincts tell me that she is in London, but as we have no possible means of telling where, we can only take the obvious steps, eat our dinner, and possess our souls in patience. (LADY)
Well, Watson, we can but possess our souls in patience and see what the hour may bring. (3GAR)
If you had killed Watson, you would not have got out of this room alive. (3GAR)
My professional charges are upon a fixed scale. I do not vary them, save when I remit them altogether. (THOR)
I do not think that I am in need of booming. (THOR)
It may surprise you to know that I prefer to work anonymously, and that it is the problem itself which attracts me. (THOR)
Some of you rich men have to be taught that all the world cannot be bribed into condoning your offences. (THOR)
When once your point of view is changed, the very thing which was so damning becomes a clue to the truth. (THOR)
All the cards are at present against us. (THOR)
One drawback of an active mind is that one can always conceive alternate explanations which would make our scent a false one. (THOR)
Let us hear the suspicions. I will look after the proofs. (3STU)
It is nearly nine, and the landlady babbled of green peas at seven-thirty. (3STU)
It is human to err, and at least no one can accuse you of being a callous criminal. (3STU)
For once you have fallen low. Let us see in the future how high you can rise.(3STU)
I supppose, Watson, that you imagine that I have added opium-smoking to cocaine injections, and all the other little weaknesses on which you have favored me with your medical views. (TWIS)
I reached this one by sitting upon five pillows and consuming an ounce of shag. (TWIS)
Everything comes in circles - even Professor Moriarty. . . It's all been done before, and will be again. (VALL)
Mediocrity know nothing higher than itself; but talent instantly recognizes genius. (VALL)
Watson insists that I am the dramatist in real life. Some touch of the artist wells up within me, and calls insistently for a well staged performance. Surely our profession would be a drab and sordid one if we did not sometimes set the scene so as to glorify our results. (VALL)
When water is near and a weight is missing it is not a very far-fetched supposition that something has been sunk in the water. (VALL)
My mind is like a racing engine, tearing itself to pieces because it is not connected up with the work for which it was built. (WIST)
Life is commonplace; the papers are sterile; audacity and romance seem to have passed forever from the criminal world. (WIST)
There is but one step from the grotesque to the horrible. (WIST)
Pipes are occasionally of extraordinary interest. Nothing has more individuality save, perhaps, watches and bootlaces. (YELL)
I can see that you have not slept for a night or two. That tries a man's nerves more than work, and more even than pleasure. (YELL)
If you wish to preserves your incognito, I suggest that you cease to write your name upon the lining of your hat, or else that you turn the crown towards the person whom you are addressing. (YELL)
There's blackmail in it, or I am much mistaken. (YELL)
There is something very attractive about that livid face at the window. (YELL)
Watson, if it should ever strike you that I am getting a little over-confident in my powers, or giving less pains to a case than it deserves, kindly whisper "Norbury" in my ear, and I shall be infinitely obliged to you.

09.03.2014 в 22:53Да, очень ценная подборка, спасибо!
ну вот все же редко он раскрывается
Да, раскрывается редко. Тем и ярче, когда всё-таки раскрывается.)
И потому удивляет даже, что столько столько выражений набирается о разном.))
