Agatha Christie
Image
There are some people who don't conform to the signals. An ordinary well-regulated locomotive slows down or pulls up when it sees the red light hoisted against it. Perhaps I was born color blind. When I see the red signal -- I can't help forging ahead. And in the end, you know, that spells disaster.
Agatha Christie
Image
It is the quietest and meekest people who are often capable of the most sudden and unexpected violences for the reason that when their control does snap, it goes entirely. (Hercule Poirot)
Agatha Christie
Image
I just woke up feeling happy this morning. You know those days when everything in the world seems right.
Agatha Christie
Image
One doesn't recognize the really important moments in one's life until it's too late.
