Sherlock Holmes mansplains Attic Theory

Sherlock Holmes mansplains Attic Theory | MY SURPRISE REACHED A CLIMAX, HOWEVER, WHEN I FOUND INCIDENTALLY THAT HE WAS IGNORANT OF THE COPERNICAN THEORY AND OF THE COMPOSITION OF THE SOLAR SYSTEM. THAT ANY CIVILIZED HUMAN BEING IN THIS NINETEENTH CENTURY SHOULD NOT BE AWARE THAT THE EARTH TRAVELLED ROUND THE SUN APPEARED TO ME TO BE SUCH AN EXTRAORDINARY FACT THAT I COULD HARDLY REALIZE IT. “YOU APPEAR TO BE ASTONISHED,” HE SAID, SMILING AT MY EXPRESSION OF SURPRISE. “NOW THAT I DO KNOW IT I SHALL DO MY BEST TO FORGET IT.” “TO FORGET IT!” “YOU SEE,” HE EXPLAINED, “I CONSIDER THAT A MAN’S BRAIN ORIGINALLY IS LIKE A LITTLE EMPTY ATTIC, AND YOU HAVE TO STOCK IT WITH SUCH FURNITURE AS YOU CHOOSE. A FOOL TAKES IN ALL THE LUMBER OF EVERY SORT THAT HE COMES ACROSS, SO THAT THE KNOWLEDGE WHICH MIGHT BE USEFUL TO HIM GETS CROWDED OUT, OR AT BEST IS JUMBLED UP WITH A LOT OF OTHER THINGS, SO THAT HE HAS A DIFFICULTY IN LAYING HIS HANDS UPON IT." | image tagged in sherlock holmes and john watson,attic theory,forget,ignorance,focus,relevance | made w/ Imgflip meme maker
