I have enjoyed greatly the second blooming that comes when you finish the life of the emotions and of personal relations and suddenly find - at the age of fifty, say - that a whole new life has opened before you, filled with things you can think about, study, or read about...It is as if a fresh sap of ideas and thoughts was rising in you.

Agatha Christie
Image

Agatha Christie

With method and logic one can accomplish anything.
Agatha Christie
Image
Oh, no, I'm not brave. When a thing is certain, there's nothing to be brave about. All you can do is to find your consolation.
Agatha Christie

I always think loyalty's such a tiresome virtue.
Agatha Christie

I suppose without curiosity a man would be a tortoise. Very comfortable life, a tortoise has.

To every problem, there is a most simple solution.
Agatha Christie
Image
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
Image
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
Image
That is why most great love stories are tragedies.
Agatha Christie
Image
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.

Three months seems to me quite a reasonable time to complete a book, if one can get right down to it.
