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
Unless you are good at guessing, it is not much use being a detective.
Agatha Christie
In my experience, people who go about looking for trouble usually find it.
Agatha Christie
I never can stand seeing people pleased with themselves,” said Joanna. “It arouses all my worst instincts.
