More quotes by Agatha Christie
The popular idea that a child forgets easily is not an accurate one. Many people go right through life in the grip of an idea which has been impressed on them in very tender years.
Agatha Christie
I just woke up feeling happy this morning. You know those days when everything in the world seems right.
Agatha Christie
The past is the father of the present.
Agatha Christie
Every murderer is probably somebody's old friend.
Agatha Christie
But surely for everything you love you have to pay some price.
Agatha Christie
Intuition is like reading a word without having to spell it out. A child can't do that because it has had so little experience. A grown-up person knows the word because they've seen it often before.
Agatha Christie
Doctors can do almost anything nowadays, can't they, unless they kill you while they're trying to cure you.
Agatha Christie
Words are such uncertain things, they so often sound well but mean the opposite of what one thinks they do.
Agatha Christie
Fear is incomplete knowledge.
Agatha Christie

Agatha Christie
For in the long run, either through a lie, or through truth, people were bound to give themselves away.
Agatha Christie

It is enough for me to sit back in my chair and think. It is this – ” he tapped his egg-shaped head – “this, that functions!
Agatha Christie
Who is there who has not felt a sudden startled pang at reliving an old experience or feeling an old emotion?
Agatha Christie
One of the saddest things in life, is the things one remembers.
Agatha Christie
I'm going to marry him. And if he thinks he can get divorced and married every two or three years in the approved Hollywood fashion, well, he never made a bigger mistake in his life. He's going to marry and stick to me.
Agatha Christie
Why shouldn't I hate her? She did the worst thing to me that anyone can do to anyone else. Let them believe that they're loved and wanted and then show them that it's all a sham.
Agatha Christie
Very unfortunately, she had no husband. She had never had a husband, and therefore did not kill a husband.
Agatha Christie
That is why most great love stories are tragedies.
Agatha Christie
Now I am old-fashioned. A woman, I consider, should be womanly. I have no patience with the modern neurotic girl who jazzes from morning to night, smokes like a chimney, and uses language which would make a billingsgate fishwoman blush!
Agatha Christie
Prisoners at the bar, have you anything to say in your defence?
