More quotes by Agatha Christie
To count - really and truly to count - a woman must have goodness or brains.
Agatha Christie
Exactly! It is absurd - improbable - it cannot be. So I myself have said. And yet, my friend, there it is! One cannot escape from the facts.
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
For in the long run, either through a lie, or through truth, people were bound to give themselves away.
Agatha Christie
... nothing is so boring as devotion.
Agatha Christie
Nobody believes in magicians any more, nobody believes that anyone can come along and wave a wand and turn you into a frog. But if you read in the paper that by injecting certain glands scientists can alter your vital tissues and you'll develop froglike characteristics, well, everybody would believe that.
Agatha Christie
In the midst of life, we are in death.
Agatha Christie
... there are many to whom money has no personal appeal, but who can be tempted by the power it confers.
Agatha Christie
One never quite allows for the moron in our midst.
Agatha Christie
Never tell all you know—not even to the person you know best.
Agatha Christie
If only-if only, Hastings, you would part your hair in the middle instead of at the side! What a difference it would make to the symmetry of your appearance. And your moustache. If you must have a moustache, let it be a real moustache-a thing of beauty such as mine.
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
And if you cast down an idol, there's nothing left.
Agatha Christie
It is really a hard life. Men will not be nice to you if you are not good-looking, and women will not be nice to you if you are.
Agatha Christie
I like to inquire into everything. Hercule Poirot is a good dog. The good dog follows the scent, and if, regrettably, there is no scent to follow, he noses around - seeking always something that is not very nice.
Agatha Christie
Every murderer is probably somebody's old friend.
Agatha Christie
Men don't understand how their mannerisms can get on women's nerves so that you feel you just have to snap.
Agatha Christie
the science of tomorrow is the supernatural of today.
Agatha Christie
You know, Emily was a selfish old woman in her way. She was very generous, but she always wanted a return. She never let people forget what she had done for them - and, that way she missed love.
Agatha Christie
Very unfortunately, she had no husband. She had never had a husband, and therefore did not kill a husband.
Agatha Christie
