... nothing is so boring as devotion.

Agatha Christie 428 quotes

The point is that one's got an...

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 428 quotes

Hate doesn't last. Love does....

Hate doesn't last. Love does.

Agatha Christie 428 quotes

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!

... there are many to whom money has no personal appeal, but who can be tempted by the power it confers.

Agatha Christie 428 quotes

... the belief in a superstratum of human beings ... is the most evil of all beliefs. For when you say, 'I am not as other men' -- you have lost the two most valuable qualities we have ever tried to attain: -- humility and brotherhood.

Agatha Christie 428 quotes

... evil was, perhaps, necessa...

... evil was, perhaps, necessarily always more impressive than good.

Agatha Christie 428 quotes

In old days the public didn't ...

In old days the public didn't really mind much about accuracy, but nowadays readers take it upon themselves to write to authors on every possible occasion, pointing out flaws.

Agatha Christie 428 quotes

To put it quite crudely ... the poor don't really know how the rich live, and the rich don't know how the poor live, and to find out is really enchanting to both of them.

Writers are diffident creatures -- they need encouragement.

Agatha Christie 428 quotes

The first time you do a thing ...

The first time you do a thing is always exciting.

Agatha Christie 428 quotes

I think, myself, that one's me...

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.

... it's always interesting when one doesn't see. If you don't see what a thing means, you must be looking at it wrong way round.

Agatha Christie 428 quotes

A mother's love for her child is like nothing else in the world.

If you place your head in a lion's mouth, then you cannot complain one day if he happens to bite it off.

You agree - I'm sure you agree that beauty is the only thing worth living for.

To every problem, there is a most simple solution.

Agatha Christie 428 quotes

Words are such uncertain thing...

Words are such uncertain things, they so often sound well but mean the opposite of what one thinks they do.

Agatha Christie 428 quotes

No, my friend, I am not drunk....

No, my friend, I am not drunk. I have just been to the dentist, and need not return for another six months! Is it not the most beautiful thought? --Poirot
