Assumptions Are Dangerous Things.

In Conversation, Points Arise! If A Human Being Converses Much, It Is Impossible For Him To Avoid The Truth! (hercule Poirot)

Then There Are Some Minor Points That Strike Me As Suggestive - For Instance, The Position Of Mrs. Hubbard's Sponge Bag, The Name Of Mrs. Armstrong's Mother, The Detective Methods Of Mr. Hardman, The Suggestion Of Mr. Macqueen That Ratchett Himself Destroyed The Charred Note We Found, Princess Dragomiroff's Christian Name, And A Grease Spot On A Hungarian Passport.

Evil Never Goes Unpunished, Monsieur. But The Punishment Is Sometimes Secret.

I've Always Noticed That If You Speak The Truth In A Rather Silly Way Nobody Believes You.

Beastly Things, Teeth. Give Us Trouble From The Cradle To The Grave.
