G.K. Chesterton Quote

Sunday is a fixed star, he said.You shall see him a falling star, said Syme, and put on his hat.The decision of his gesture drew the Professor vaguely to his feet.Have you any idea, he asked, with a sort of benevolent bewilderment, exactly where you are going?Yes, replied Syme shortly, I am going to prevent this bomb being thrown in Paris.Have you any conception how? inquired the other.No, said Syme with equal decision.
