More quotes by Agatha Christie
Fey...a Scotch word...It means the kind of exalted happiness that comes before disaster. You know--it's too good to be true.
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
Of course I despise money when I haven't got any. It's the only dignified thing to do.
Agatha Christie
Women observe subconsciously a thousand little details, without knowing they are doing so. Their subconscious mind adds these little things together - and they call the result intuition.
Agatha Christie
Bad temper is its own safety valve. He who can bark does not bite.
Agatha Christie
Assumptions are dangerous things.
Agatha Christie
Juliet singles out Romeo. Desdemona claims Othello. They have no doubts, the young, no fear, no pride.
Agatha Christie
The heart of a woman who loves will forgive many blows.
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
When a man is really in love he can't help looking like a sheep.
Agatha Christie
if you ask me, nobody really likes people who are always doing their duty.
Agatha Christie
In the midst of life, we are in death.
Agatha Christie
I always take abroad with me one really good soft pillow--to me it makes all the difference between comfort and misery.
Agatha Christie
I was thinking, that when my time comes, I should be sorry if the only plea I had to offer was that of justice. Because it might mean that only justice would be meted out to me.
Agatha Christie
Nothing, I believe, is so full of life under the microscope as a drop of water from a stagnant pool.
Agatha Christie
Prisoners at the bar, have you anything to say in your defence?
Agatha Christie
The point is that one's got an instinct to live. One doesn't live because one's reason assents to living. People who, as we say, 'would be better dead' don't want to die! People who apparently have everything to live for just let themselves fade out of life because they haven't got the energy to fight.
Agatha Christie
Truth, however bitter, can be accepted, and woven into a design for living.
Agatha Christie
The impossible could not have happened, therefore the impossible must be possible in spite of appearances.
Agatha Christie
Those who never think of money need a great deal of it.
