Agatha Christie
Ah, but life is like that! It does not permit you to arrange and order it as you will. It will not permit you to escape emotion, to live by the intellect and by reason! You cannot say, 'I will feel so much and no more.' Life, Mr. Welman, whatever else it is, is not reasonable. [Hercule Poirot]
Agatha Christie

Agatha Christie
A mother's love for her child is like nothing else in the world. It knows no law, no pity, it dares all things and crushes down remorselessly all that stands in its path.
Agatha Christie
The happy people are failures because they are on such good terms with themselves they don't give a damn.
Agatha Christie
Poirot, I said. I have been thinking. An admirable exercise my friend. Continue it.
Agatha Christie
One place is very like another.
Agatha Christie
Things never come when they are expected.
Agatha Christie
As you yourself have said, what other explanation can there be?' Poirot stared straight ahead of him. 'That is what I ask myself,' he said. 'That is what I never cease to ask myself.
Agatha Christie
