    Agatha Christie
    “As a matter of fact it wouldn’t be safe to tell any man the truth about his wife! Funnily enough, I’d trust most women with the truth about their husbands. Women can accept the fact that a man is a rotter, a swindler, a drug taker, a confirmed liar, and a general swine, without batting an eyelash, and without its impairing their affection for the brute in the least. Women are wonderful realists.”

    “Friends.
    They aren’t any such thing as good friend or bad friend.
    Maybe there are just friend.
    People who stand by you when you're hurt and who helped you feel not so lonely.
    Maybe there are worth being scared for and hoping for and living for.
    Maybe worth dying for too.
    If that what has to be.
    No bad friends.
    Only people you want.
    Need to be with.
    People who build their houses in your heart.”
