More quotes by Agatha Christie
She was a lucky woman who had established a happy knack of writing what quite a lot of people wanted to read.
Agatha Christie
Exactly! It is absurd - improbable - it cannot be. So I myself have said. And yet, my friend, there it is! One cannot escape from the facts.
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.
Agatha Christie
It is completely unimportant. That is why it is so interesting.
Agatha Christie
Things never come when they are expected.

Agatha Christie

Agatha Christie

Agatha Christie
You cannot mix up sentiment and reason.
Agatha Christie
I think, myself, that one's memories represent those moments which, insignificant as they may seem, nevertheless represent the inner self and oneself as most really oneself.
Agatha Christie
Beastly things, teeth. Give us trouble from the cradle to the grave.
Agatha Christie
All I needed was a steady table and a typewriter...a marble-topped bedroom washstand table made a good place the dining-room table between meals was also suitable.
Agatha Christie
Words, mademoiselle, are only the outer clothing of ideas.
Agatha Christie
Writing is a great comfort to people like me, who are unsure of themselves and have trouble expressing themselves properly.
Agatha Christie
The young people think the old people are fools -- but the old people know the young people are fools.
Agatha Christie
Talk and tea is his specialty, said Giles. He has about five cups of tea a day. But he works splendidly when we are looking.
