More quotes by Agatha Christie
Poirot said placidly, “One does not, you know, employ merely the muscles. I do not need to bend and measure the footprints and pick up the cigarette ends and examine the bent blades of grass. It is enough for me to sit back in my chair and think. It is this – ” he tapped his egg-shaped head – “this, that functions!
Agatha Christie
Of course I despise money when I haven't got any. It's the only dignified thing to do.
Agatha Christie
With thought, all problems can be resolved.
Agatha Christie
One knows so little. When one knows more it is too late.
Agatha Christie
Dogs are wise. They crawl away into a quiet corner and lick their wounds and do not rejoin the world until they are whole once more.
Agatha Christie
He laughs best who laughs at the end.
Agatha Christie
There's nothing so dangerous for anyone who has something to hide as conversation.
Agatha Christie
There's too much tendency to attribute to God the evils that man does of his own free will.
Agatha Christie
I'm sure you have a theme: the theme of your life. You can embellish it or desecrate it, but it's your theme, and as long as you follow it, you will experience harmony and peace of mind.
Agatha Christie
I married an archeologist because the older I grow, the more he appreciates me.
Agatha Christie
Now I am old-fashioned. A woman, I consider, should be womanly. I have no patience with the modern neurotic girl who jazzes from morning to night, smokes like a chimney, and uses language which would make a billingsgate fishwoman blush!
Agatha Christie
These little grey cells. It is up to them.
Agatha Christie
One of the saddest things in life, is the things one remembers.
Agatha Christie
Never tell all you know—not even to the person you know best.
Agatha Christie
I don't know. I don't know at all. And that's what's frightening the life out of me. To have no idea.
Agatha Christie
Self-preservation's a man's first duty. And natives don't mind dying, you know. They don't feel about it as Europeans do.
Agatha Christie
It's like all those quiet people, when they do lose their tempers they lose them with a vengeance.
Agatha Christie
The saddest thing in life and the hardest to live through, is the knowledge that there is someone you love very much whom you cannot save from suffering.
Agatha Christie
Elephants can remember, but we are human beings and mercifully human beings can forget.
Agatha Christie
The point is that one's got an instinct to live. One doesn't live because one's reason assents to living. People who, as we say, 'would be better dead' don't want to die! People who apparently have everything to live for just let themselves fade out of life because they haven't got the energy to fight.
