Who would survive longest on a desert island - Sherlock or Moriarty?
I think we know who will resort to cannibalism first
Moriarty cause Sherlock can't live/ survive without John 😂😂😂❤
Neither. They'll kill each other by the end of the day.😂
Probably Sherlock because Moriarty will get bored and kill himself.
Sherlock will survive if he has moriar-tea.
-I was a soldier, Sherlock. I killed people.
-You were a doctor!
-I had bad days!
BEST. LINE. EVER.
There's a meme that says that! With stills taken from that scene!
Indeed
definitly
My mom is an EMT and when I showed her the scene she shrugged saying 'yeah, sums it up.'
"Anderson don't talk out loud, you lower the IQ of the entire street" One of my faves! I can never help cracking up when I hear/read/say that 😂
Diana Cabral One of the best for sure, I completely lost it when I heard this for the first time😂
I also love “I dislike being outnumbered, it makes for too much stupid in the room”
Brilliant 🙏🏼😂
Whole street*
LMAO
"Anderson don't think it makes me aware of your existence" 😂
I said this to someone in my class except I switched the name and the place, and people kept saying that the person I hated got dissed. They didn't even know where I got this from
What about " Mrs. Hudson leave Baker Street ? England would fall "
That is a good one.
One of the best
Minh Quang Đoàn tbh it’s true bc she keeps Sherlock and John in line (and houses them), and they’ve saved London numerous times from terrorism n stuff😂
God bless Mrs. Hudson. She has to put up with a lot from Sherlock and John. You want Sherlock's wrath, then go for the heart and hurt Mrs. Hudson. He will go to Hell and back to get revenge.
One of my faves as well!
"Honey you should see me in a crown"- Moriarty ♔
Bianca Eisenhart oh yeah!!! Man, that should have been in top 3!
YES!
I have a t-shirt with that quote on it, I also really want to get one with "I don't understand" "I still don't understand"
Billie eyelash has entered the chat
Billie Eilish really liked this scene
My fav it's "I'm an army doctor...which means i could break every bone in your body while i naming them''
I'm a soldier, I killed people.
You're a doctor.
I HAD BAD DAYS!
You broke my arm!
It's a sprain. I'm a doctor. I know how to sprain people.
What about this?
"Brilliant Anderson!"
"Really?"
"Yes, a brilliant impression of an idiot."
Love that one😂
🙂
My fav ones:
"Sentiment is a chemical defect found in the losing side"
"I've always assumed love to be a great disadvantage, thank you for the final proof"
"All lives end, all hearts are broken, caring is not an advantage sherlock"
"Work is the best antidote to sorrow, Mrs Hudson"
"What's it like in your funny little brains, it must be so boring"
"Once you've eliminated the impossible, whatever remains however improbable must be the truth"
Mycroft said that 'caring is not an advantage'. Here's the loophole: He never said he doesn't care, just that he thinks it unwise. Why would he think it unwise? Maybe because he and a certain baby brother of his happen to have a misunderstanding about their relationship that poisons it.
That's sad, I know, and I'm sorry, but that's my headcanon.
yassss
The last one is my favourite
"Sorry about dinner" 😭 the real ice man huh
The last quote was actually used in Sir Conan Doyle's first story ("A Study In Pink")
EDITED 09/30/2020- It's supposed to be called "A Study In Scarlet"
Where is " I may be surrounded by angels but not for one second think that I'm one of them "
Yea I love that quote! Btw it's I may be on the side of the angels
That is one of my favorites!
yeah this one is pretty good
because it's neither smart, funny or like a emotionally deep
Freddy night guard
Well, it’s ‘Sherlock’ quotes, not Sherlock Holmes quotes. These are quotes from the television series
One of the best ones ever was when Lestrade asked, "And exactly how many times did he fall out the window?"
'I lost count'
Kristy K. James yeee
It's like he knew that it hadn't exactly been an accident...
Missed Quotes
Moriarty:
"Falling is just like flying except there's a more permanent destination."
"People have died." "That's what people DO!!!"
"Every fairy tale needs a good old fashioned villain."
"Honey you should see me in a crown."
Sherlock:
"I may be on the side of the angels but don't think for one second that I am one of them."
"I don't have friends. I just have one."
"Not. Dead."
Watson:
"One more miracle, Sherlock, for me. Don't. Be. Dead."
Sorry, it's "I don't have friends. I've just got one."
And he wasn't dead
Yihong Chen
Yes totally yes
You should do a video...and show this guy...how it's done 😂..plus.. one of my fav is *disguise is merely a self portrait* Irene Adler
“I NEED A CASE!” “YOU’VE JUST SOLVED ONE!” - that’s it, that’s the show
"BY HARPOONING A DEAD PIG, APPEARANTLY"
Where is that genius quote...,"Sherlock is a girl's name"Lol
I WANTED HIM TO CONFESS HIS UNDYING LOVE 😂
xXQueen of MoriartyXx did you know his full name is: William Sherlock Scott Holmes 😂
Or Indy is the dog's name
that's sherlocks language it actually translates to "i'm madly in love with you" :)
@@billiejoness we all did, I started fanboying but then he said that
"If you want the rattle, don't throw the rattle"
*Gets hit by that very rattle, immediately after*
sksks the best
True so true love u
"You see, but you don't observe"
"As always, you see, but you do not observe" is definitely one of my all-time favourites.
I used this quote on my friends and family all the time but they still don’t get it. Same for “I’m a high functioning sociopath”
this is my favorite quotes
"if you want the rattle, don't throw the rattle"
Josimara Gomes DO NOT
GODDAMNIT ITS ALWAYS DO NOT!
These aren’t the most genius, they’re just the most quoted.
You’re missing fantastic ones like “Your life is not your own, keep your hands off it.” And “Intriguings are not to be ignored. They are processing of the mind too fast to comprehend.”
Those are genius.
I was about to say the same thing. The Lying Detective quote will stay with me for a long time. It is also the only quote that got me teared up
It's actually "intuition", not "intriguings"
I may be on the side of the angels but don't think do one second that I am one of them
ClueingForLooks Yup, you're spot on.
From the same episode:
"By saving my life, she (Mary) conferred a value on it. It is a currency I do not know how to spend."
My favorite quotes (don't know if it qualifies as "genius", but I really don't care) come from "The Lying Detective" (both said by Sherlock):
_Taking your own life. Interesting expression. Taking it from who? Once it's over, it's not you who'll miss it. Your own death is something that happens to everybody else. Your life is not your own. Keep your hands off it._
_In saving my life she [Mary] conferred a value on it. It is a currency I do not know how to spend._
The Lying Detective especially was absolutely brilliant in great thoughts/quotes, I love these two very much as well, so memorable...
I’m not sure if it counts as a quote but I especially like.
“There never was a dog” Just the sheer plot twist of it. The assumption that we have all held during the seasons. Just an amazing moment.
retnavybrat THOSE ARE GOOD ONES YES
That first quote is my number one. I love it.
Super
"Your mother has a lot to answer for."
"I know. I have a list. Mycroft has a file."
I newer understood how this was meant. What has the mother to explain and why does Mycroft has more to explain? Idk
@@ASMRJey Considering that Sherlock confines himself to London and Mycroft is the one who apparently runs all the Intelligence Services.... well....
THE NAME IS SHERLOCK HOLMES AND THE ADRESS IS 221B BAKER'S STREET--- where the hell was this?!?!
*ADDRESS
Tosiak I thought it was in the very first episode after Sherlock and John have met
First episode. I’m not actually a huge fan of the show in general, but the first episode was pure awesome!
Peter Knutsen yeah I agree but the first episode doesn’t make me excited like the others :)
+ lil gay wink
"In a world of locked rooms the man with the key is king, and honey you should seeee mee in a crown"
"I'm not your housekeeper"
*LMAO*
Love when she says that...repeatedly. 😁
AHAHAHAHAHHA
I love Mrs Hudson 🥰
"I was just playing the game..."
"I know... and this is just losing...."
Probably the best scene ever on television!
I miss this show! I miss Martin and Benedict.
me too. I keep waiting for the 4th season. Only to remember time and again that I already watched it. It was so far off I seem to refuse to acknowledge it exists....
Stepanie Klose Exactly! S4 does feel like it was written by completely different people.
There's always the MCU
Oh my god i feel like there is so much waiting now! For Avengers 4 , for Spiderman Far From Home or season 5 of Sherlock (if it’ll happen).. i don’t want to suffer through the waiting
I think you mean Benadryl Cucumberlash
I love Molly's line; " He's not gay. Why do you have to spoil...? He's not."
"You look sad when you think he can't see you."
"You see me," he answered. He's not denying it.
"I don't count."
------------
"I know what it means, looking sad when you think nobody can see you," she continued, "You're a bit like my dad; when he was dying he was always cheerful- he was lovely- except when he thought no one can see- I saw him once, he looked sad."
"Molly," his voice took a warning tone.
" *You* look sad."
He didn't reply.
------------
"... Molly, I think I'm going to die."
Some Greg Lestrade moments are also great! Like: “NOT REALLY” or “not our division’’
"Exactly how many times did he fall out the window?" Lestrade was a great straight man.
YES OMG😂😂
It’s all a bit of a big blur Detective Inspector: I lost count.
"I'm not just a doctor, I'm an army doctor, meaning I could break all bones in your body while naming them at the same time."
- Dr John Watson
I love sherlocks quotes. And i love using them even more. The other day my mom jokingly called me a psychopath. I told her high functioning sociopath. She said what?! I told her i'm not a psychopath i'm a high functioning sociopath. To which she replied "i'm impressed you know what the difference is"
Man, I was thinking quote but i put in insult. I hate it when i do that. XD
r/thathappened
That is an awesome retort
But what’s the difference??
@@Serven r/nothingeverhappens
"I'm not your housekeeper!"
-Mrs. Hudson
"One more miracle, Sherlock, for me. Don't. Be. Dead."
is probably the best one...
"Not. Dead.... are you really going to keep that?" (John's mustache)
"Miss Hudson had been attacked by an American. I'm restoring balance to the universe." I really thought you would feature this statement.
Yes! Also, the fact that Sherlock "Lost count", is even more hilarious, because he's Sherlock!
Lol
"Don't make people into heroes, John. Heroes don't exist and if they did i wouldn't be one of them." (Sherlock Holmes)
" You told me once that you weren't a hero. There were times when i didn't even think you were human, but let me tell you this. You were the best man, the most human human being that i ever know and no one will convince me that you told me a lie." (John Watson)
They should have put Moriarty's line "That's what people DO!!!" because it gives you the exact idea of how dangerous Moriarty is.
Andrew Scott did that the same way in the audition, one of the producers mentioned, and it got their attention....lucky for us.
"I'm dismissive of the virtuous, unaware of the beautiful and uncomprehending in the face of the happy!" One of the best.
I love Sherlock’s face when John calls him a drama queen
How about, "Beauty is a construct based entirely on childhood impressions, influences, and role-models."
Well, they were drunk at that time but I really liked this quote. Very true it is.
"I don't shave for Sherlock. "
"You should put that on a t-shirt."
What about
"I was in my mind palace"
"Hero's don't exist and if they did I wouldn't be one"
"You see, you just don't observe"
"My brain is like a hard drive"
"If you want the rattle, don't throw the rattle"
"He's a great man, and one day if we're very very lucky, he might even be a good one"
"It's not the fall that kills you, its the landing"
"I'm a high-functioning sociopath"
"Mrs.Hudson leave baker-street? England would fall."
Those are some of my favorite quotes from the show :)
Best part is Lestrade finishing that last episode with answering to the police officer, who said that Sherlock is a great man, with something along the lines of "Yeah, and more than that, I think he is a good one"
@@evinbuffett5899
Sherlock : "Mrs. Hudson has been attacked by an American. I am restoring the balance to the universe."
Sherlock : *drops said person down the window, dragging him up again, then dropping him down over and over again until he gets 'a few broken ribs, fractured skull, suspected punctured lung' *
Sherlock : that's the balance restored.
Lestrade : "And how many times exactly did he fall out of the window?"
Sherlock : "It was a bit of a blur, detective inspector; I lost count." (read : I dropped him so many times I lost count)
Moral of the story : do whatever you want but do not, and I repeat *DO NOT* give Mrs. Hudson (or John, for that matter) a single scratch in the presence of Sherlock Holmes (and if you do give them one while he's not there, make sure he can't track you down).
My personal favourites
- "Taking your own life.. Interesting expression taking it from who? Once it's over it's not you who will miss it. Your own death is something that happens to everyone else. Your life is not your own, keep your hands off it."
- "You're not a puzzle solver, you never have been. You're a drama queen now theres a man in there who's about to die- *the game is on* solve it!"
- "As ever Watson you see but do not observe. To you the world remains an impenetrable mystery whereas to me it is an open book, hard logic versus romantic whimsy, that is your choice. You fail to connect actions to their consequences. Now, for the last time, if you want to keep the rattle.. do not throw the rattle, hm?"
- And then the mirrored quotes from the begging and end of the show which is amazing because it really shows how Sherlock's character has developed:
"Sherlock Holmes is a great man. And I think one day, if we're very, very lucky, he might even be a good one."
to
"Well.. he's a great man sir." "No, he's better than that.. He's a good one."
- "I'm Sherlock Holmes I wear the damn hat..
Isn't that right Mary?"
BORED!!! -Sherlock Holmes
Nicholas Johnson OMG I'm obsessed with this
YESSSS
that's it, that's half of the show
🙂🔫
Lol can’t help laughing when I read this
1)Love is a dangerous disadvantage, thank you for the final proof.
2)Sentiment is a chemical defect found on the loosing side.
3)Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth.
4)Your death happens to other people.
5) The truth is rarely pure and never simple.
Bonus: This is what it is.
what about "shut up" "i didn't say anything" "you're thinking, it's annoying"
best quote in the show
That line is hilarious 😂
The offended/outraged face Sherlock does when John calls him a drama queen gets me every time. It’s hilarious. 😂
The BBC version of Sherlock blows the US version called "elementary" out of the water in my opinion. Benedict did an absolutely fantastic job of portraying the person of what we think as Sherlock Holmes.
New World they are very different. I do agree BBC version is better but the other one is good. I like that Watson is very smart also and Lucy Liu and Jonny Lee Miller have a lot of chemistry. I like Jonny he does a quirky Sherlock.
@@tatikto No don't get me wrong both versions are very good. Just the BBC version is alot more Sherlock and alot more on your toes. You feel like you're there constantly getting surprised as the story advances. Watching elementary, there's been many a time I know who the killer is before any indication.
Both are still good though.
The BBC version is more fantasy-awesome Sherlock, while "Elementary" is more "real-world" Sherlock. It tends to be more realistic in my opinion of what he would be in real-life.
I love both.
@@eggsnspam But Sherlock books are fantasy. Elementary kind of takes away from the Sherlock we know and expect.
'Sherlock' is the hoity-toity side of the Holmes family that decripts spy code and investigates corporate espionage, 'Elementary' is that branch of the family that sits around in their Y-fronts at their council flat, deducing the neighbors' infidelities and noting who's running numbers.
They don't talk much.
When John says that Sherlock is a drama queen, he looks so offended 😂
"because I took your pulse." Breaks down his opponent just by taking her pulse. If that's not a stone cold genius I don't know what is.
AND IT WAS BLOODY IMPROVISED!!!
@@MxCAT7 the line?
Watson had some great lines, too. A few that stand out in my mind:
Upon first meeting Mycroft in a warehouse after a Byzantine abduction (A Study in Pink):
JW: "Who are you?"
MH: "He (Sherlock) would probably call me his archenemy. He does love to be dramatic."
JW: "Well, thank God you're above all that.
Or in "A Scandal in Belgravia", when Sherlock wants to fake a mugging in order to get access to Irene Adler:
SH: "Punch me in the face."
JW: "Punch you?"
SH: "Yes, punch me. In the face. Didn't you hear me?"
JW: "I always hear 'Punch me in the face' when you're speaking, but it's usually subtext."
Or in "The Sign of Three", as Holmes rambles on during the wedding speech while stalling for time:
JW: "Sherlock - any chance for an end date to this speech?"
"Today, you sit between the woman you have made your wife and the man you have saved. In short, the two people who love you most in all this world. And I know I speak for Mary as well when I say we will never let you down, and we have a lifetime ahead to prove that. Now, on to some funny stories about John..."
"What happened? Why are you all doing that? John? Did I do it wrong?" Too cute
Actually, what I really liked (LOVED!!) was the sentence before that. (Had to ggl & copy it, I just wasn’t giving it the flavor it deserved): “I'm afraid John, I can't congratulate you. All emotions and, in particular, love, stand opposed to the pure cold reason I hold above all things. A wedding is, in my considered opinion, nothing short of a celebration of all that is false and specious and irrational and sentimental in this ailing and morally compromised world. Today we honor the death watch people, that is the doom of our society and, in time one feels certain, our entire species.”
The looks on everyone’s faces. I must have watched that speech (that episode) more times than any other (except for the very first). But it quickly became a fav that (surprisingly) did not contain Moriarty. Those are few and far between.
Fave episode
"What happened? Why are you all doing that? John???"
Every Fairytale Needs a Good Old Fashion Villain
Space Race
You Should See Me In A Crown
My all time favorite Sherlock's quote
Actually in my own opinion every fairytale needs a good old fashioned hero/Detective too
*They come as a pair*
lmao today I told this dude in class to shut up or else he'll lower the IQ of the whole classroom and honestly it was the most powerful I've felt in years,,
Damn I wish I had your guts
"This is your heart, and you should never let it rule your head." The episode with Irene Adler is literal art, especially the end with Mycroft!
I'm a high functioning sociopath do your research lol classic
I really liked “I owe you” by moriarty, it was so iconic. Also “ms hudson, leave baker street? England would fall” as it is one of the first times he acknowledges and appreciates her help
"Heroes don’t exist John. And if they did i wouldn’t be one of them"
this is one of my most favourite one
Alone is all I have , alone protects me!
Sentiment is a chemical defect found on the losing side!
What about one of my favourite: "It's not the fall that kills you Sherlock. Of all people you should know that. It's not the fall, it's never the fall. It's the landing!
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 have 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.
-Mary Watson
"In a world with locked rooms the man with the key is king and honey you should see me in a crown"
Sassiest line ever delievered in the sassiest and sexiest way ever
Your life is not your own - keep your hands off it.
no "i hear slap me whenever you speak"
stan namjoon that’s a quote from Watson
@@kimberleymorris8052 They has a quote from moriarty though?
I always hear punch me in the face when you speak, but it's usually subtext.
@@elizabethtrudgill9900 yh ik i just forgot the real quote because its heen ages since i watched the series..
...but it's usually subtext
where's "Come immediately if convenient
If inconvenient,come all the same"
“Punch me in the face didn’t your hear me?” -Sherlock
“I hear punch me in the face every time you speak but it’s usually subtext” -John
One of my favourites: When John asks Mycroft wether or not he trusts his own Secret Service and Mycroft answers: "Of course not. They all spy on people for money."
My favorite line is still John's: "She taught me to be the man she already thought I was. Get yourself a piece of that."
Where’s :” don’t be smart Sherlock I’m the smart one”?
The empty hearse.
This one stuck with me the most: "Your own death is something that happens to everyone else."
This series made me love and appreciate Benedict and Martin so much more
"I don't understand"
-"U should put that on a tshirt"
.
.
.
.
.
"I still don't understand"
-"and there is the back of the tshirt"😂😂
What about "I am sherlocked"??
not a quote, just a password
This Top Ten did not do the show justice AT ALL!!!
You need a top 100 or smthn
"I'm not a psychopath, I'm a high-functioning sociopath"
Story of my life let's be honest
I miss this show so much
I see butternut crinklefry, I hit like!!!
ayushi you spelled it wrong, I believe it’s spelled beaniebag cucumberpatch
Ellie Russo you both actually spelled it wrong, it's benedaddy cumberstraw
nope! it's benadryl cubbyhole
Y’ALL I CANT BREATHE
“I’m not a psychopath, Anderson. I’m a high-functioning sociopath. Do your research.”- Sherlock Holmes. I LOVE this quote!!!!
Yes we missed you! Thank you for sharing and as always enjoy Sherlock Quotes!
The joke is he is NOT a sociopath, high functioning or otherwise, and he knows better-that line was his camouflage and everybody except Lestrade fell for it.
Yes, because Steven Moffat stated this in an interview too.
"He is not a sociopath. He would like to be one, but he isn't. Noone can define himself."
Doesn't John refer to him as having Asberger's at one stage? I can't remember exactly where, but I remember thinking that John nailed it.
Baskerville episode
Vatican Cameos should be on this list. IT'S.I.CO.NIC.
Yes
It
Is
There's also one of my favorite line : "it is what it is"
This scene is so moving...❤️
I miss this show so much, hoping there’s a season 5!
SH- "Is that why you're calling yourself Greg?!"
JW- "That's his name."
SH- "Really?"
GL- "Yes."
"YOU'RE A DOCTOR" "I HAVE BAD DAYS"
I miss this show so much ugh
“Oh please do your research I’m not a hero I’m a high functioning sociopath.. MERRY CHRISTMAS !”
Honourable mention: Everything Moriarty says.
Well those were good but I guess you should put the hole series in the video, 4 seasons, every episode, every second in Sherlock Holmes is a iconic quote.
Where's "your life is not your own,get your hands off it!"
That was the one quote that has been with me every single day sincw I watched the episode "the lying detective". Being a suicidal,that really gets into me
I have 3 more
"I'm your landlady dear, not your housekeeper"
"I may be on the side of the angels but don't think for one second that I am one of them"
"It is what it is"
"In a room of locked doors the man with the key is king. And honey you should see me in a crown" ~ Moriarty
my dudes, this entire show is one genius quote.
“as usual! you see, but you do not observe”
my fave has always been "sentiment is a chemical defect found in the losing side" - always gets me :,)
Almost every sentence is iconic
4:26 Dr. Watson tried his best to hold his laugh.
Oh God I love this show.
Mycroft : It's a family matter
Sherlock :That's Why he stays
*John smiling silently*
"are we here to see the queen?" "apparently yes"
"He's the crack in the lens, the fly in the ointment, the virus in the data."
“If making making people feel small was a *national* sport, Sherlock would be the *world* champion.”
What?
it's the joke, if there was a competition nationally he would win it world-wide.
We are living in a world where benedict is asked to play doctor strange rather than the Sherlock.
That's sad!
What do you mean?
What are you talking about? He plays both
*where
I agree. Sherlock is a much better role for him and I wasn't that impressed with Dr Strange. The biggest appeal for me was Benedict himself . Definitely not worth walking away from Sherlock.
“In saving my life she conferred a value on it. It is a currency I do not know how to spend.”
3:11 pffff... "friendship"
"Friendship"? More like "Bromance".
Is that a JOHNLOCK shipper I see
@@siyakaul3621 yes hi i'm here
What about ''I'm not gay''!
