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.

More quotes by Agatha Christie
To win a war is as disasterous as to lose one.
Agatha Christie
... it's always interesting when one doesn't see. If you don't see what a thing means, you must be looking at it wrong way round.
Agatha Christie
And so could you know it if you would only use the brains the good God has given you. Sometimes I really am tempted to believe that by inadvertence, He passed you by.
Agatha Christie
I didn't want to work. It was as simple as that. I distrusted work, disliked it. I thought it was a very bad thing that the human race had unfortunately invented for itself.
Agatha Christie
That is what I mean. A bath! The receptacle of porcelain, one turns the taps and fills it, one gets in, one gets out and ghoosh - ghoosh - ghoosh, the water goes down the waste pipe! M. Poirot are you quite mad? No, I am extremely sane.
Agatha Christie
Everyone likes talking about himself. - Hercule Poirot
Agatha Christie
I can't imagine why everybody is always so keen for authors to talk about writing. I should have thought it was an author's business to write, not talk.
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
Jealousy, you know, is usually not an affair of causes. It is much more-how shall I say?-fundamental than that. Based on the knowledge that one's love is not returned. And so one goes on waiting, watching, expecting...that the loved one will turn to someone else.
Agatha Christie
No, my friend, I am not drunk. I have just been to the dentist, and need not return for another six months! Is it not the most beautiful thought? --Poirot
Agatha Christie
I've got a stomach now as well as a behind. And I mean - well, you can't pull it in both ways, can you? ... I've made it a rule to pull in my stomach and let my behind look after itself.
Agatha Christie
The bereaved had never any doubt about their dear ones' wishes and those wishes usually squared with their own inclinations.
Agatha Christie
Never do anything yourself that others can do for you.
Agatha Christie
We owe most of our great inventions and most of the achievements of genius to idleness either enforced or voluntary.
Agatha Christie
I've always noticed that if you speak the truth in a rather silly way nobody believes you.
Agatha Christie
Any woman can fool a man if she wants to and if he's in love with her.
Agatha Christie
too much safety is abhorrent to the nature of a human being.
Agatha Christie
Money ... is always the great clue to what is happening in the world.
Agatha Christie
Crime is terribly revealing. Try and vary your methods as you will, your tastes, your habits, your attitude of mind, and your soul is revealed by your actions.
Agatha Christie
The things young women read nowadays and profess to enjoy positively frighten me.
