Birdy Edwards is here. I am Birdy Edwards! - Arthur Conan Doyle

She entered with ungainly struggle like some huge awkward chicken, torn, squawking, out of its coop.

I'm not sure about whether I shall go. 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. ~ Sherlock Holmes

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 use 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.
