It's not a pleasant thought, John. I have this terrible feeling from time to time that we might all just be human.
Even you?
No. Even you.
Sherlock · Season 1
It's not a pleasant thought, John. I have this terrible feeling from time to time that we might all just be human.
Even you?
No. Even you.
I'm Sherlock Holmes. I wear the damn hat.
Who are you?
Isn't it obvious? Haven't you guessed? I'm Eurus.
Eurus?
Silly name, isn't it? Greek. Means the "East Wind." My parents loved silly names, like Eurus, or Mycroft, or Sherlock.
[John is shocked at the revelation]
Oh, look at him. Didn't it ever occur to you, not even once, that Sherlock's secret brother might just be Sherlock's secret sister? Huh? He's making a funny face. I think I'll put a hole in it. [pulls the trigger]
(after being subjected to a staged event intended to suggest that Eurus is attacking him) Doctor Watson, why would he do that to me? That was insane!
Er, yes, well, someone convinced him that you wouldn't tell the truth unless you were actually wetting yourself.
Someone?
Probably me.
So that's it, is it? You're just going?
Well don't worry. There's a place for people like you; the desperate, the terrified, the ones with nowhere else to run.
What place?
221B Baker Street. See you in the morning. If there's a queue, join it.
(to Watson) This is a private matter.
John stays.
This is family.
THAT'S. WHY. HE STAYS.
You look funny grown up.
What’s wrong?
Sorry. The memories are disturbing.
What do you mean? Examples?
They found her with a knife once. She seemed to be cutting herself. Mother and Father were terrified; they thought it was a suicide attempt. But when I asked Eurus what she was doing, she said-
I wanted to see how my muscles worked.
Jesus.
So, I asked her if she felt pain and she said-
Which one’s pain?
I wrote my own version of the Nativity when I was a child, "The Hungry Donkey". It was a bit gory, but if you're going to put a baby in a manger, you're asking for trouble.
Mary Watson (on pre-recorded DVD): PS. I know you two. And if I'm gone, I know what you could become, because I know who you really are; a junkie who solves crimes to get high, and the doctor who never came home from the war. Well, you listen to me. Who you really are, it doesn't matter; it's all about the legend. The stories, the adventures. There is a last refuge for the desperate, the unloved, the persecuted. There is a final court of appeal for everyone. When life gets too strange, too impossible, too frightening, there is always one last hope. When all else fails, there are two men sitting, arguing in a scruffy flat, like they've always been there and they always will. The best and wisest men I have ever known. My Baker Street Boys; Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson.

I'm Sherlock Holmes, the world's only consulting detective.
I'm not going to go into detail about how I do what I do because chances are you wouldn't understand. If you've got a problem that you want me to solve, then contact me. Interesting cases only please. This is what I do:
1. I observe everything.
2. From what I observe, I deduce everything.
3. When I've eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how mad it might seem, must be the truth.
