More quotes by 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
Achievement brings with it its own anticlimax.
Agatha Christie
The out-of-date returns in due course as the picturesque.
Agatha Christie

Agatha Christie
There's no agony like [getting started]. You sit in a room, biting pencils, looking at a typewriter, walking about, or casting yourself down on a sofa, feeling you want to cry your head off.
Agatha Christie
Real evidence is usually vague and unsatisfactory. It has to be examined---sifted. But here the whole thing is cut and dried. No, my friend, this evidence has been very cleverly manufactured---so cleverly that it has defeated its own ends.
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

Agatha Christie

Agatha Christie
marriage is an extraordinary thing - and I doubt if any outsider - even a child of the marriage - has the right to judge.
Agatha Christie
We owe most of our great inventions and most of the achievements of genius to idleness either enforced or voluntary.
Agatha Christie
Does the real thing ever have the perfection of a stage performance?
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
There are more important things than finding the murderer. And justice is a fine word, but it is sometimes difficult to say exactly what one means by it. In my opinion, the important thing is to clear the innocent. - Hercule Poirot
Agatha Christie
There is no question of defence. I have always acted in accordance with the dictates of my conscience. I have nothing with which to reproach myself.
