Enola Holmes – Movie Quotes

You're being emotional. It's understandable, but unnecessary.

I've come here because I've grown to like you more in your absence.

— Who are you?
— What are you?
— I'm Viscount Tewkesbury, the Marquess of Basilwether.
— You're a nincompoop.

My mother only corresponded with one address with regularity. It was wrong of me to look where it was addressed to, and entirely wrong of me to have memorized it. But when growing up in the countryside, there is little excitement, so one clings to whatever narratives one can get.

— I was forced into calligraphy as a child. Hated it, but there's rarely a case where someone's handwriting doesn't tell me something I need to know.

It is good to care for the vulnerable, but not if it means risking your life. Sometimes you have to let nature... take its course.

The truth is, I did not ask for Viscount Tewkesbury, Marquess of Basilwether in my life. I did not want the Viscount Tewkesbury, Marquess of Basilwether in my life. So why do I feel responsibility for the Viscount Tewkesbury, Marquess of Basilwether?

— Why, if you're passionate about flowers, would you come to London?
— Because I can be lost here.
— And yet I found you.

— What's made you like me more?
— Really? That is your question? Not "Who is trying to kill me?"
