Agatha Christie Quotes

I have the little idea, my friend, that this is a crime very carefully planned and staged. It is a far-sighted, long-headed crime. It is not - how shall I express it? - a Latin crime. It is a crime that shows traces of a cool, resourceful, deliberate brain - I think an Anglo-Saxon brain.

In today's mass-merchandising world, that's largely gone; Amazon is trying to use computer technology to re-establish it.
