• Sherlock Holmes : My dear Mycroft, this is a surprise! Watson, some sherry... Is this a social call?

  Mycroft Holmes : Yes, yes, oh yes, purely social.

  Mycroft Holmes : How are you?

  Sherlock Holmes : Very well.

  [pause] 

  Sherlock Holmes : Well, now that the social call is over, hadn't we better get down to business?

• Mycroft Holmes : For Heaven's sake, stop sawing away on that infernal instrument! It was a sad day when Mother gave it to you, a sad day for her, a sad day for you, a sad day for us all... What I cannot understand is why, since you've had that violin with you so long, you never learned to play!
