Agatha Christie: An Autobiography Quotes

“Always when I woke up, I had the feeling which I am sure must be natural to all of us, a joy in being alive. I don't say you feel it consciously--you don't -- but there you are, you are alive, and you open your eyes, and here is another day, another step, as it were, on your journey to an unknown place. That very exciting journey which is your life. Not that it is necessarily going to be exciting *as* a life, but will be exciting to you because it is *your* life. That is one of the great secrets of existence, enjoying the gift of life that has been given to you.”

“I like living. I have sometimes been wildly, despairingly, acutely miserable, racked with sorrow, but through it all I still know quite certainly that just to be alive is a grand thing.”
