Agatha Christie
Evil never goes unpunished, Monsieur. But the punishment is sometimes secret.
Agatha Christie
A man when he is making up to anybody can be cordial and gallant and full of little attentions and altogether charming. But when a man is really in love he can't help looking like a sheep.

Agatha Christie

Agatha Christie
Surfing is like that. You are either vigorously cursing or else you are idiotically pleased with yourself.
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
In old days the public didn't really mind much about accuracy, but nowadays readers take it upon themselves to write to authors on every possible occasion, pointing out flaws.
Agatha Christie
Never do anything yourself that others can do for you.
Agatha Christie
Never worry about what you say to a man. They're so conceited that they never believe you mean it if it's unflattering.
