The only reason to study

I have finally discovered the only reason to study and work hard in school. To be as much as possible like Sherlock Holmes. The only problem I have with my life is that I am not intelligent enough to talk down to the majority of people and I imagine it would be quite fun. Sherlock Holmes is the one person who can talk down too anyone. Therefore I am making my goal in life to be like Sherlock Holmes. To do this I must increase my information of everything. I am assuming that to do this I should start with working hard in school, and deducing as much as possible about everyone. Although, let's be honest, I am probably not going to work harder in school.
