“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, The Body in the Library

“A great many men are mad, and no one knows it. They do not know it themselves”
― Agatha Christie, The Secret Adversary

“At my time of life, one knows that the worst is usually true.”
― Agatha Christie, Murder at the Vicarage

“Crime is terribly revealing. Try and vary your methods as you will, your tastes, your habits, your attitude of mind, and your soul is revealed by your actions.”
― Agatha Christie, And Then There Were None
