Dr. Watson
“I am the trees and the flowers you step on. Iam the earth you walk on, the water you drink, the animals you kill. I am the mountains and the never-ending sea. I am here and everywhere else, now and forever. I am Everything.”
Dr. Watson, When the Spring Comes

Arthur Conan Doyle
“Avoid the moor in those hours of darkness when the powers of evil are exalted.”
Arthur Conan Doyle
