Description:... "Are they not fresh and beautiful?" Watson cried...Holmes shook his head gravely."... You look at these scattered houses, and you are impressed by their beauty. I look at them, and the only thought which comes to me is a feeling of their isolation and of the impunity with which crime may be committed here... They always filled me with a certain horror. It is my belief, Watson... that the lowest and vilest alleys in London do not present a more dreadful record of sin than does the smiling and beauty of the countryside... But the reason is obvious. The pressure of public opinion can do in the town what the law cannot accomplish."~ Arthur Conan Doyle, The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes
