The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes

The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes1984



Moriarty:
I am quite sure that a man of your intelligence will see that there can be but one outcome to this affair. It is necessary that you should withdraw. You have worked things in such a fashion that we have only one resource left. It has been an intellectual treat to me to see the way in which you have grappled with this matter, but I say, unaffectedly, that it would be a grief to me to be forced to take an extreme measure. [Holmes smiles slightly] Oh, you smile, sir, but it really would, I do assure you.

Sherlock Holmes:
Danger is part of my trade.

Moriarty:
This is not danger. It is inevitable destruction. You stand in the way not merely of an individual but of a mighty organization, the full extent of which, even you, with all your cleverness, have been unable to realize. You must stand clear, Mr. Holmes, or be trodden under foot.
