The Count of Monte Cristo “Tell the angel who is going to watch over you, Morel, to pray for a man who, like Satan, believed for one moment he was the equal of God, but who now acknowledges in all Christian humility that God alone is supreme power and infinite wisdom.

I did not like to how Sir Arthur Conan Doyle wrote it and I especially did not like the main character Sherlock Holmes. I never knew a man who was concerned about he being right then the feelings of other people. Not to mention he was very arrogant.
