More quotes by Agatha Christie
One of the saddest things in life, is the things one remembers.
Agatha Christie
I'm sure you have a theme: the theme of your life. You can embellish it or desecrate it, but it's your theme, and as long as you follow it, you will experience harmony and peace of mind.
Agatha Christie
If one sticks too rigidly to one's principles, one would hardly see anybody.
Agatha Christie
One doesn't recognize the really important moments in one's life until it's too late.
Agatha Christie
Don't think. That is the wrong way to bring anything back. Let it go. Sooner or later it will flash into your mind.
Agatha Christie
It's what's in *yourself* that makes you happy or unhappy.
Agatha Christie
More children suffer from interference than from non-interference.
Agatha Christie
I do not argue with obstinate men. I act in spite of them.
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
... 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
Bitterness leads nowhere. It turns back on itself. It is the eternal cul-de-sac.
Agatha Christie

Agatha Christie
With method and logic one can accomplish anything.
Agatha Christie
Be sure thy sin will find thee out.
Agatha Christie
Instinct is a marvelous thing. It can neither be explained nor ignored.
Agatha Christie
It's like all those quiet people, when they do lose their tempers they lose them with a vengeance.
Agatha Christie
Liking is more important than loving. It lasts. I want what is between us to last, Luke. I don't want us just to love each other and marry and get tired of each other and then want to marry some one else.
Agatha Christie
There is no detective in England equal to a spinster lady of uncertain age with plenty of time on her hands.
Agatha Christie
There is something about conscious tact that is very irritating.
Agatha Christie
The contemporary historian never writes such a true history as the historian of a later generation.
