More quotes by Agatha Christie
... evil was, perhaps, necessarily always more impressive than good.
Agatha Christie
you cannot give to people what they are incapable of receiving.
Agatha Christie
The impossible could not have happened, therefore the impossible must be possible in spite of appearances.
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
To count - really and truly to count - a woman must have goodness or brains.
Agatha Christie
Every murderer is probably somebody's old friend.
Agatha Christie
The lure of the past came up to grab me. To see a dagger slowly appearing, with its gold glint, through the sand was romantic. The carefulness of lifting pots and objects from the soil filled me with a longing to be an archaeologist myself.
Agatha Christie
I can think of nothing more soul destroying in life than to persist in trying to do a thing you want desperately to do well, and to know that you are at the best second rate.
Agatha Christie
Crime is terribly revealing. Try and vary your methods as you will, your tastes, your habits, your attitude of mind, and your soul is revealed by your actions.
Agatha Christie
To feel admiration for a man all through one's married life would, I think, be excessively tedious.
Agatha Christie
I just woke up feeling happy this morning. You know those days when everything in the world seems right.
Agatha Christie
I suppose without curiosity a man would be a tortoise. Very comfortable life, a tortoise has.
Agatha Christie
An archaeologist is the best husband a woman can have. The older she gets the more interested he is in her.
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.
Agatha Christie
Ideas are like everything else. They've got to be marketed.
Agatha Christie
If you place your head in a lion's mouth, then you cannot complain one day if he happens to bite it off.
Agatha Christie
You gave too much rein to your imagination. Imagination is a good servant, and a bad master. The simplest explanation is always the most likely.
Agatha Christie
One is alone when the last one who remembers is gone.
Agatha Christie
Nothing, I believe, is so full of life under the microscope as a drop of water from a stagnant pool.
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.
