More quotes by Agatha Christie
Books are a habit-forming drug.
Agatha Christie
Doctors can do almost anything nowadays, can't they, unless they kill you while they're trying to cure you.
Agatha Christie
Words, mademoiselle, are only the outer clothing of ideas.
Agatha Christie
You'll be glad too, when the end comes.
Agatha Christie
Everybody said, Follow your heart. I did, it got broken
Agatha Christie
Hate doesn't last. Love does.
Agatha Christie
I think, myself, that one's memories represent those moments which, insignificant as they may seem, nevertheless represent the inner self and oneself as most really oneself.
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
The point is that one's got an instinct to live. One doesn't live because one's reason assents to living. People who, as we say, 'would be better dead' don't want to die! People who apparently have everything to live for just let themselves fade out of life because they haven't got the energy to fight.
Agatha Christie
Bad temper is its own safety valve. He who can bark does not bite.
Agatha Christie
It is a curious thought, but it is only when you see people looking ridiculous that you realize just how much you love them.
Agatha Christie
I suppose it is because nearly all children go to school nowadays and have things arranged for them that they seem so forlornly unable to produce their own ideas.
Agatha Christie
And, of course, afterwards -- one always hears these things afterwards, so much better if one heard them before -- we found out that dozens of empty brandy bottles were taken out of the house every week!
Agatha Christie
... nothing is so boring as devotion.
Agatha Christie
One does see so much evil in a village,' murmured Miss Marple in an explanatory voice.
Agatha Christie
Instinct is a marvelous thing. It can neither be explained nor ignored.
Agatha Christie
There's too much tendency to attribute to God the evils that man does of his own free will.
Agatha Christie
And yet, said Poirot, suppose an accident- Ah, no, my friend- From your point of view it would be regrettable, I agree. But nevertheless let us just for one moment suppose it. Then, perhaps, all these here are linked together - by death.
Agatha Christie
lawyers never go to law, do they? They know better.
Agatha Christie
One of the luckiest things that can happen to you in life is, I think, to have a happy childhood.
Agatha Christie
