Ilse von Hoffmanstal, aka Gabrielle Valladon Quotes in The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes (1970)

Send

Holmes: [talking about women] Take my fiancÃ©e, for instance.
Ilse von Hoffmanstal, aka Gabrielle Valladon: Your... fiancÃ©e?
Holmes: Mmmm, she was the daughter of my violin teacher. We were engaged to be married, the invitations were out, I was being fitted for a tailcoat, and 24 hours before the wedding, she died of influenza. It just proves my contention that women are unreliable and not to be trusted.
