Currently, I am reading the Adventures of Sherlock Holmes by Arthur Conan Doyle which is of course part of the Sherlock Holmes series and is a collection if 13 short stories. When I was reading the first short story, The Adventure of a Scandal of Bohemia, I came across a quote that for me, pretty much summed up how Sherlock Holmes works.
"It is a capital mistake to theorise before one has data. Insensibly one begins to twist facts to suit theories, instead of theories to suit facts."
