More quotes by Agatha Christie
To keep something wild is far more difficult than to preserve it.
Agatha Christie
I, myself, was always recognized . . . as the “slow one” in the family. It was quite true, and I knew it and accepted it. Writing and spelling were always terribly difficult for me. My letters were without originality. I was . . . an extraordinarily bad speller and have remained so until this day.
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
The steamship whose machinery is broken may be brought into port and made fast to the dock. She is safe, but not sound. Repairs may last a long time. Christ designs to make us both safe and sound. Justification gives the first - safety sanctification gives us the second - soundness.
Agatha Christie

Agatha Christie
One is alone when the last one who remembers is gone.
Agatha Christie
Words are such uncertain things, they so often sound well but mean the opposite of what one thinks they do.
Agatha Christie
Authors were shy, unsociable creatures, atoning for their lack of social aptitude by inventing their own companions and conversations.
Agatha Christie
Love is not everything ... It is only when we are young that we think it is.
Agatha Christie
There is nothing more thrilling in this world, I think, than having a child that is yours, and yet is mysteriously a stranger.
Agatha Christie
No sign, so far, of anything sinister—but I live in hope.
Agatha Christie
It is completely unimportant. That is why it is so interesting.
Agatha Christie
Real evidence is usually vague and unsatisfactory. It has to be examined---sifted. But here the whole thing is cut and dried. No, my friend, this evidence has been very cleverly manufactured---so cleverly that it has defeated its own ends.
