Said Nigel Quote by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

“Perchance you shall, fair sir," said Nigel, "for all that I have seen of you fills me with this desire to go further with you. It is in my mind that we might turn this thing to profit and to honour, for when Sir Robert has spoken to you, I am free to do with you as I will.” quote by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
