More quotes by Agatha Christie
To win a war is as disasterous as to lose one.
Agatha Christie
There is too much tendency to attribute to God the evils that man does of his own free will. I must concede you the Devil. God doesn't really need to punish us, Miss Barton. We're so busy punishing ourselves.
Agatha Christie
If you've had a happy childhood, nobody can take that away from you.
Agatha Christie
Time does not dispose of a question - it only presents it anew in a different guise.
Agatha Christie
I don't think necessity is the mother of invention. Invention, in my opinion, arises directly from idleness, possibly also from laziness - to save oneself trouble.
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
Nothing, I believe, is so full of life under the microscope as a drop of water from a stagnant pool.
Agatha Christie
You gave too much rein to your imagination. Imagination is a good servant, and a bad master. The simplest explanation is always the most likely.
Agatha Christie
Everybody always knows something, said Adam, even if it's something they don't know they know.
Agatha Christie
I've got an uncle myself. Nobody should be held responsible for their uncles. Nature's little throwbacks - that's how I look at it.
Agatha Christie
Everyone is a potential murderer-in everyone there arises from time to time thewish to kill-though not the will to kill.
Agatha Christie
Evil is not any superhuman, but it is HUMAN.
Agatha Christie
You're shocked, Mr. Burton, at hearing what our gossiping little town thinks. I can tell you this - they always think the worst!
Agatha Christie
There was a moment when I changed from an amateur to a professional. I assumed the burden of a profession, which is to write even when you don't want to, don't much like what you're writing, and aren't writing particularly well
Agatha Christie
You'll be glad too, when the end comes.
Agatha Christie
But I know human nature, my friend, and I tell you that, suddenly confronted with the possibility of being tried for murder, the most innocent person will lose his head and do the most absurd things.
Agatha Christie
A mother's love for her child is like nothing else in the world. It knows no law, no pity, it dares all things and crushes down remorselessly all that stands in its path.
Agatha Christie
Coffee in England always tastes like a chemistry experiment.
Agatha Christie
There are questions that you don't ask because you're afraid of the answers to them.
Agatha Christie
It had come about exactly in the way things happened in books.
