"I'm already intimately familiar with the first two stories, Dorothy L. Sayers' "The Vindictive Story of the Footsteps That Ran", set in 1922 and published 1928, and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes story "The Adventure of the Bruce-Partington Plans", set 1895, and published in 1908, the year my elder grandad was born. So I re-read the first, & skipped the second. (It isn't the best Holmes tale.) On to Orczy." — Dec 27, 2025 02:20AM

“Anyone whose goal is 'something higher' must expect someday to suffer vertigo. What is vertigo? Fear of falling? No, Vertigo is something other than fear of falling. It is the voice of the emptiness below us which tempts and lures us, it is the desire to fall, against which, terrified, we defend ourselves.”

“Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like books that are now written in a very foreign tongue. Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps you will then gradually, without noticing it, live along some distant day into the answer.”
