"Holmes, appelai-je. J'étais en train, ce matin-là, de regarder par notre fenêtre dans Baker Street. Holmes, répétai-je. Un fou en liberté se promène. Triste spectacle ! On ne devrait pas lui permettre de sortir seul ! Paresseusement mon ami émergea de son fauteuil."

"Quand le commissionnaire nous eut quitté, Holmes prit la pierre et l'éleva à la lumière. Quelle jolie chose ! dit-il. Voyez comme elle brille, comme une étincelle ! Évidemment elle est le noyau, le foyer d'un crime : comme toutes les belles pierres ! Les belles pierres sont les appâts favoris du diable. Dans les joyaux plus gros et plus anciens, chaque facette pourrait figurer un crime. Cette pierre-ci n'a pas plus de vingt ans.

"Vous feriez mieux de ne pas parler de ce qui vous est arrivé : ce serait infliger à vos nerfs une nouvelle épreuve... Oh ! non. Maintenant çà va. D'ailleurs, je vais être obligé de raconter mon aventure à la police. Mais entre nous, si je n'apportais pas la preuve convaincante de ma blessure, ils ne me croiraient pas. C'est une affaire extraordinaire, et je n'ai pas grand chose de positif pour en étayer la vraisemblance."

"Alors soudain, un autre bruit se fit entendre : un son très léger, très doux, quelque chose comme un petit jet de vapeur qui s'échappe d'une bouilloire. Au moment où nous l'entendîmes, Holmes sauta du lit, gratta une allumette et frappa de son jonc avec fureur le cordon de sonnette. Vous le voyez, Watson ? hurla-t-il."

"Un matin, nous étions assis , ma femme et moi, devant notre petit déjeuner quand la bonne apporta un télégramme. Il était signé de Sherlock Holmes, et il était rédigé comme suit : 'Avez-vous deux jours à perdre ? viens de recevoir une dépêche de l'ouest de l'Angleterre en rapport avec la tragédie de du Val de Boscombe. Serais heureux de vous emmener. Air et décor excellents. Quitterai Paddington par train 11 h 15.'"

"Pour Sherlock Holmes, elle est toujours la femme. Il la juge tellement supérieure à tout son sexe, qu'il ne l'appelle presque jamais par son nom ; elle est et elle restera la femme. Aurait-il donc éprouvé à l'égard d'Irène Adler un sentiment voisin de l'amour ? Absolument pas ! Son esprit lucide, froid, admirablement équilibré répugnait à toute émotion en général et à celle de l'amour en particulier. Je tiens Sherlock Holmes pour la machine à observer et à raisonner la plus parfaite qui ait existé sur la planète ; amoureux, il n'aurait plus été le même."
