Agatha Christie
One does see so much evil in a village,' murmured Miss Marple in an explanatory voice.
Agatha Christie
The happy people are failures because they are on such good terms with themselves they don't give a damn.
Agatha Christie
Bottled, was he? Said Colonel Bantry, with an Englishman's sympathy for alcoholic excess. Oh, well, can't judge a fellow by what he does when he's drunk? When I was at Cambridge, I remember I put a certain utensil - well - well, nevermind.
Agatha Christie

Agatha Christie
