More quotes by Agatha Christie
a great man always knows better than to explain unless an explanation is demanded. To rush into explanations and excuses is always a sign of weakness.
Agatha Christie
The urge to write one's autobiography, so I have been told, overtakes everyone sooner or later.
Agatha Christie
As life goes on it becomes tiring to keep up the character you invented for yourself, and so you relapse into individuality and become more like yourself everyday.
Agatha Christie
Elephants can remember, but we are human beings and mercifully human beings can forget.
Agatha Christie
Mr. Jesmond made a peculiar noise rather like a hen who has decided to lay an egg and then thought better of it.
Agatha Christie
too much safety is abhorrent to the nature of a human being.
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
You regard it as impossible that a sinner should be struck down by the wrath of God! I do not!
Agatha Christie

Agatha Christie

Agatha Christie
The young people think the old people are fools -- but the old people know the young people are fools.
Agatha Christie
One of us in this very room is in fact the murderer.
Agatha Christie
You should employ your little grey cells.
Agatha Christie
If you love, you will suffer, and if you do not love, you do not know the meaning of a Christian life.
Agatha Christie
Love is not everything ... It is only when we are young that we think it is.
Agatha Christie
There hung about her the restrained energy of a whiplash.
Agatha Christie
The simplest explanation is always the most likely.
Agatha Christie
I live now on borrowed time, waiting in the anteroom for the summons that will inevitably come. And then - I go on to the next thing, whatever it is. One doesn't, luckily, have to bother about that.
Agatha Christie
Bitterness leads nowhere. It turns back on itself. It is the eternal cul-de-sac.
Agatha Christie
I suppose it is because nearly all children go to school nowadays and have things arranged for them that they seem so forlornly unable to produce their own ideas.
