Hercule Poirot: I am an imbecile. I see only half of the picture. Miss Lemon: I don't even see that.
Agatha Christie
People who can be very good can be very bad too.
Agatha Christie
There's no agony like [getting started]. You sit in a room, biting pencils, looking at a typewriter, walking about, or casting yourself down on a sofa, feeling you want to cry your head off.

Agatha Christie

Agatha Christie

Agatha Christie
One is alone when the last one who remembers is gone.
Agatha Christie

Downstairs in the lounge, by the third pillar from the left, there sits an old lady with a sweet, placid, spinsterish face and a mind that has plumbed the depths of human iniquity and taken it all as in the day's work....where crime is concerned, she's the goods.
Agatha Christie

Agatha Christie
I don't know. I don't know at all. And that's what's frightening the life out of me. To have no idea.
Agatha Christie
That is why most great love stories are tragedies.
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
You should employ your little grey cells.
Agatha Christie
I'm going to marry him. And if he thinks he can get divorced and married every two or three years in the approved Hollywood fashion, well, he never made a bigger mistake in his life. He's going to marry and stick to me.
Agatha Christie
To keep something wild is far more difficult than to preserve it.
Agatha Christie
It is deplorable...to remove all the romance - all the mystery!
Agatha Christie
The impossible could not have happened, therefore the impossible must be possible in spite of appearances.
Agatha Christie
