Famous quotes containing the words bet and/or point:

    “Christina Bailey: I was just thinking how much you can tell about a person from such simple things. Your car, for instance.
    Mike Hammer: Now what kind of message does it send you?
    Christina: You have only one real, lasting love.
    Mike: Now who could that be?
    Christina: You. You’re one of those self-indulgent males who thinks about nothing but his clothes, his car, himself. I’ll bet you do push-ups every morning just to keep your belly hard.”
    —A.I. (Albert Isaac)

    ““Circumstantial evidence is a very tricky thing,” answered Holmes thoughtfully. “It may seem to point very straight to one thing, but if you shift your own point of view a little, you may find it pointing in an equally uncompromising manner to something entirely different.””
    —Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930)
