Agatha ChristieAt a small table, sitting very upright, was one of the ugliest old ladies he had ever seen. It was an ugliness of distinction- it fascinated rather than repelled. She sat very upright.

Agatha Christieلو سؤلت عن ميولي لأجبت بأنني أحب
كل طعام جيد وأكره الكحول وكل ما يدخل في صنعه الكحول . حاولت التدخين فوجدته بغيضا ولم أجد ما يغريني
