Character: Hercule Poirot. Page 1

Do you know, Mrs. Poirot, what makes me mad the most?
- No, madam.
- Pity!

Today was wet weather, it was raining, the wind was blowing, then the fog came down. And now it's a calm evening, and the stars shine in the clear sky. Well, in life everything happens about the same.

I'm not crazy enough to argue with a person in love.

I know women well. They can make your life so difficult that it becomes unbearable, and the British - oh, they treat women like children.

- To acquire a husband and children is the common lot of all women, while only one woman out of a hundred, even out of a thousand, can achieve fame and achieve a high social status!

- More English than you think. Countryside, big old house, horses, dogs, walks in the rain, burning wood in the fireplace, garden apples, lack of money, cheap dresses, neglected garden ...

- I saw a ghost. That's what's wrong with me!
- Ghost?
- Yes!
- Which one? Who did you see?
- Myself.

- If you please. It always counts.

- In places like this, no dead bodies are found.
- Why? Why can't you find a dead body on Smugglers Island, according to you?
- I don't know. It seems to me that there are places more suitable for this kind of finds. In my opinion, here...
- I understand you, it's a lovely corner. Peaceful landscape, shining sun and blue sea. But you forget that under the sun there is evil everywhere...

We all have these little gray cells in our heads, but only a select few know how to use them ...

Mr. McQueen, after our last conversation, I have established the real name of your late host.
- What are you saying!
- Ratchett, as you yourself suspected, was his fictitious name. In fact, he was Cassetti, the gangster who oversaw the kidnapping and murder of little Daisy Armstrong. You didn't know that?
- No, sir. If I knew, I would have cut off my right hand so I couldn't print his lousy letters and killed him with my left hand!

- As the incomparable Greta Garbo said: "Sometimes you want to be alone with yourself."

Rumor is truly a nine-headed Lernaean hydra that cannot be destroyed. because as soon as one of her heads is cut off. two others grow in its place.

Jealousy, as unnatural and extravagant as it may seem, is almost always based on reality. They say the customer is always right? Well, the same is true of a jealous husband or wife. No matter how little concrete evidence is, in essence they are always right.
