More quotes by Agatha Christie
Oh, I'm not afraid of death! What have I got to live for after all? I suppose you believe it's very wrong to kill a person who has injured you-even if they've taken away everything you had in the world?
Agatha Christie
I married an archeologist because the older I grow, the more he appreciates me.
Agatha Christie
a lot of trouble has been caused by memoirs. Indiscreet revelations, that sort of thing. People who have been close as an oyster all their lives seem positively to relish causing trouble when they themselves shall be comfortably dead.
Agatha Christie
The out-of-date returns in due course as the picturesque.
Agatha Christie
Every man should have aunts. They illustrate the triumph of guess work over logic.
Agatha Christie
Books are a habit-forming drug.
Agatha Christie

Agatha Christie
I learned ... that one can never go back, that one should not ever try to go back - that the essence of life is going forward. Life is really a one way street, isn't it?
Agatha Christie
I live now on borrowed time, waiting in the anteroom for the summons that will inevitably come. And then - I go on to the next thing, whatever it is. One doesn't, luckily, have to bother about that.
Agatha Christie

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
Those who never think of money need a great deal of it.
Agatha Christie
Love is not everything ... It is only when we are young that we think it is.
Agatha Christie
Doctors can do almost anything nowadays, can't they, unless they kill you while they're trying to cure you.
Agatha Christie
The simplest explanation is always the most likely.
Agatha Christie
But no artist, I now realize, can be satisfied with art alone. There is a natural craving for recognition which cannot be gain-said.
Agatha Christie
Instinct is a marvelous thing. It can neither be explained nor ignored.
Agatha Christie
I often wonder why the whole world is so prone to generalise. Generalisations are seldom if ever true and are usually utterly inaccurate.
Agatha Christie
