The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time. chapters 59-71

"I don't like talking to strangers, but i will do it for detective work." (39)

I choose this as an important quote because it shows how dedicated he is to finding the killer of Wellington. One of his biggest fears is talking to strangers because he doesn’t understand them and likes following the rule "stranger danger". But when it comes to finding the killer of Wellington he is completely dedicated to it and goes knocking an all the stranger’s doors in his neighborhood. He thinks that it is very important to find the killer because he doesn’t understand why someone would do something like that. He is also a good friend with the owner of the dog. When he goes knocking on the doors he is scared and can't look any of the stranger's facees when he asks them questions. He also doesn’t find out much information by questioning these people. And discovers the prime suspest, Mr.Shears a different way.
