‘You see but you do not observe, Lestrade.’
‘Come now, Mr Holmes! Your friend is an admirable chap but his better days are clearly behind him.’
‘Your prejudices deceive you. Dr Watson has great inner strength. If this were not so, he never would have survived Maiwand.’
‘Survived, yes, but not whole. I’ve seen it in other veterans: war takes good men and leaves them diminished.’
‘If you think that applies to the good doctor, then your outlook is superficial. The next time there is a case involving a helpless victim, observe him. He has the heart of a lion.’
