Happy Birthday, Doyle


“My mind," he said, "rebels at stagnation. Give me problems, give me work, give me the most abstruse cryptogram or the most intricate analysis, and I am in my own proper atmosphere. I abhor the dull routine of existence. I crave mental exaltation."

Arthur Conan Doyle, from The Sign of Four
