- A Study In Pink - Sherlock
You know why he's here? He's not paid or anything. He likes it. He gets off on it. The weirder the crime, the more he gets off. And you know what? One day just showing up won't be enough. One day we'll be standing around a body, and Sherlock Holmes will be the one who put it there.

- A Study in Scarlet - Sherlock
I know you're an Army doctor, and you've been invalided home from Afghanistan. I know you've got a brother who's worried about you, but you won't go to him for help because you don't approve of him, possibly because he's an alcoholic, more likely because he recently walked out on his wife. I know your therapist thinks your limp is psychosomatic, quite correctly I'm afraid. That's enough to be going on with, don't you think?

- The Sign of Three
When I say you deserve this man, it is the highest compliment of which I am capable. John, you have endured war and injury and tragic loss. So sorry again about that last one. So know this, today you sit between the woman you have made your wife and the man you have saved. In short, the two people who love you most in all this world. And I know I speak for Mary as well when I say we will never let you down and we have a lifetime ahead to prove that.

The bullet they just dug out of the wall is from a handgun. A kill shot over that distance, that kind of weapon. But not just a marksman, a fighter. His hands couldn't have shaken at all so clearly he's acclimatized to violence. He didn't fire till I was in immediate danger though, so strong moral principle. You're looking for a man probably with a history of military service with nerves of steel...
