More quotes by Agatha Christie
Everything has got its right size. When it is its right size and well run it's the tops.
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
A great many men are mad, and no one knows it. They do not know it themselves
Agatha Christie
It is my experience that no one, in the course of conversation, can fail to give themselves away sooner or later. Everyone has an irresistible urge to talk about themselves.
Agatha Christie
Three months seems to me quite a reasonable time to complete a book, if one can get right down to it.
Agatha Christie
Our weapon is our knowledge. But remember, it may be a knowledge we may not know that we possess.
Agatha Christie
Hasting - There are times when it is one's duty to assert oneself.
Agatha Christie
Everybody always knows something, said Adam, even if it's something they don't know they know.
Agatha Christie
God bless my soul, woman, the more personal you are the better! This is a story of human beings - not dummies! Be personal - be prejudiced - be catty - be anything you please! Write the thing your own way. We can always prune out the bits that are libellous afterwards!
Agatha Christie
There are questions that you don't ask because you're afraid of the answers to them.
Agatha Christie
Time does not dispose of a question - it only presents it anew in a different guise.
Agatha Christie
Real evidence is usually vague and unsatisfactory. It has to be examined---sifted. But here the whole thing is cut and dried. No, my friend, this evidence has been very cleverly manufactured---so cleverly that it has defeated its own ends.
Agatha Christie
For in the long run, either through a lie, or through truth, people were bound to give themselves away.
Agatha Christie
When you find that people are not telling you the truth---look out!
Agatha Christie
At the small table, sitting very upright, was one of the ugliest old ladies he had ever seen. It was an ugliness of distinction - it fascinated rather than repelled.
Agatha Christie
Everything must be taken into account. If the fact will not fit the theory---let the theory go.
Agatha Christie
The rottenness comes from within.
Agatha Christie
The simplest explanation is always the most likely.
Agatha Christie
When the sea goes down, there will come from the mainland boats and men. And they will find ten dead bodies and an unsolved problem on Indian Island.
Agatha Christie
Until one looks back on one's own past one fails to realise what an extraordinary view of the world a child has.
Agatha Christie
