" This is what I do ":

1. I observe everything.
2. From what I observe, I deduce everything.
3. When I've eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how mad it might seem, must be the truth. "

here is some of Sherlock Holmes's quote:

'I never make exceptions. An exception disproves the rule.'

“There is nothing more deceptive than an obvious fact.”

“Excellent!" I cried. "Elementary," said he.”

“Mediocrity knows nothing higher than itself; but talent instantly recognizes genius.”

“My name is Sherlock Holmes. It is my business to know what other people do not know.”

“Education never ends, Watson. It is a series of lessons, with the greatest for the last.”

“I am a brain, Watson. The rest of me is a mere appendix.”

“To a great mind, nothing is little,' remarked Holmes, sententiously.”

“Crime is common. Logic is rare. Therefore it is upon the logic rather than upon the crime that you should dwell.”

“I'm not a psychopath, I'm a fully functioning sociopath. Do your research.”

“I wanted to end the world but,I'll settle for ending yours.”

“I am the most incurably lazy devil that ever stood in shoe leather.”

“Holmes and Watson are on a camping trip. In the middle of the night Holmes wakes up and gives Dr. Watson a nudge. "Watson" he says, "look up in the sky and tell me what you see."

"I see millions of stars, Holmes," says Watson.

"And what do you conclude from that, Watson?"

Watson thinks for a moment. "Well," he says, "astronomically, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets. Astrologically, I observe that Saturn is in Leo. Horologically, I deduce that the time is approximately a quarter past three. Meterologically, I suspect that we will have a beautiful day tomorrow. Theologically, I see that God is all-powerful, and we are small and insignficant. Uh, what does it tell you, Holmes?"

"Watson, you idiot! Someone has stolen our tent!”

“You know my method. It is founded upon the observation of trifles.”

“My business is that of every other good citizen - to uphold the law.”

“Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth.”

“No man burdens his mind with small matters unless he has some very good reason for doing so.”

“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?”

“No ghosts need apply.

“To begin at the beginning.”
