More quotes by Agatha Christie
You know, Emily was a selfish old woman in her way. She was very generous, but she always wanted a return. She never let people forget what she had done for them - and, that way she missed love.
Agatha Christie
It's not a man's working hours that are important--it's his leisure hours. That's the mistake we all make.
Agatha Christie
Is there ever any particular spot where one can put one's finger and say, It all began that day, at such a time and such a place, with such an incident?
Agatha Christie
What I feel is that if one has got to have a murder actually happening in one's house, one might as well enjoy it, if you know what I mean.
Agatha Christie
I'm not often bored,' I assured her. Life's not long enough for that.
Agatha Christie
I don't think necessity is the mother of invention. Invention, in my opinion, arises directly from idleness, possibly also from laziness - to save oneself trouble.
Agatha Christie
If only-if only, Hastings, you would part your hair in the middle instead of at the side! What a difference it would make to the symmetry of your appearance. And your moustache. If you must have a moustache, let it be a real moustache-a thing of beauty such as mine.
Agatha Christie
That is what I mean. A bath! The receptacle of porcelain, one turns the taps and fills it, one gets in, one gets out and ghoosh - ghoosh - ghoosh, the water goes down the waste pipe! M. Poirot are you quite mad? No, I am extremely sane.
Agatha Christie
Words are such uncertain things, they so often sound well but mean the opposite of what one thinks they do.
Agatha Christie
In my end is my beginning - that's what people are always saying. But what does it mean?
Agatha Christie
Very unfortunately, she had no husband. She had never had a husband, and therefore did not kill a husband.
Agatha Christie
Hasting - There are times when it is one's duty to assert oneself.
Agatha Christie
From an early age I knew very strongly the lust to kill.
Agatha Christie
Elephants can remember, but we are human beings and mercifully human beings can forget.
Agatha Christie
Until one looks back on one's own past one fails to realise what an extraordinary view of the world a child has.
Agatha Christie
I have always admired the Esquimaux (Eskimos). One fine day a delicious meal is cooked for dear old mother, and then she goes walking away over the ice, and doesn't come back.
Agatha Christie
What they need is a little immorality in their lives. Then they wouldn't be so busy looking for it in other people's.
Agatha Christie
Three months seems to me quite a reasonable time to complete a book, if one can get right down to it.
Agatha Christie
I've got an uncle myself. Nobody should be held responsible for their uncles. Nature's little throwbacks - that's how I look at it.
Agatha Christie
When you find that people are not telling you the truth---look out!
Agatha Christie
