makintosh picked When you've eliminated the impossible,whatever remains,however improbabl...:
This is my favorite: "When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth"
And then this one:"We balance probabilities and choose the most likely.It's the scientific use of the imagination"

"Elementary, my dear Watson" is first used in the plays and then Doyle adapted it in the next short stories.

I choose this but my all-time favorite will always be "My mind rebels at stagnation. I abhor the dull routine of existence. I crave mental exultation!"

To be true, he never actually said "Elementary, my dear Watson " in stories.
Lately my favourite quote is "Data! Data! Data! I can't make bricks without clay."
