Quotes

Henry Gordon Jago: I had the thought of communicating directly with Scotland Yard where, as you know, he's held in the highest esteem.
Professor Litefoot: The Doctor is?
Henry Gordon Jago: Oh, yes, of course. It's my opinion he solves half their cases and then lets them take the credit for it. Don't you agree?
Professor Litefoot: I have no idea.
Henry Gordon Jago: No, why, it stands to reason. I mean, they're policemen. And we all know, ay, they're solid, sterling fellows, but their buttons are the brightest things about them. Don't you agree?
