Quotes 

  • Marie Van Schuyler : You accuse me now of murder?

    Bouc : Oh, no, he accuses everyone of murder.

    Hercule Poirot : It is a problem, I admit.

  • Hercule Poirot : How many great stories are tragedies?

  • Hercule Poirot : The romance of the desert has the power to seduce. I ask you: have you ever loved so much, been so possessed by jealousy, that you might kill?

  • Hercule Poirot : The crime is murder. The murderer is one of you. I have investigated many crimes, but this has altered the shape of my soul. I am detective Hercule Poirot, and I will deliver your killer.

  • Hercule Poirot : [Delivering the results of his investigation of Salome Otterbourne]  She drinks to excess twice a week or more, she smokes cigarettes of various compositions, and I believe that at least 2 of her marriages were not, I think, strictly legally ended. But she is a magnificent personality.

  • Hercule Poirot : [from the trailer]  The murderer is here... and will stay here.

  • Hercule Poirot : [observing a couple]  Ah, love. It is not safe.

  • Hercule Poirot : Flirtation, however delightful, will have no effect.

  • Hercule Poirot : Do you have a husband, madame?

    Salome Otterbourne : I've had a handful of husbands. Each one, a handful.

  • Hercule Poirot : There was one final question. It is a curiosity of mine. Your hat. In the turban style. As many times as I have seen you, you have always worn one like it, but it is out of the fashion, no?

    Salome Otterbourne : Not when I wear it.

  • Hercule Poirot : Mon ami, Bouc! Why would you fly a kite on the pyramids?

    Bouc : Because no one ever has! Thousands of years, right here, and I'm the first!

    Hercule Poirot : You are the first.

  • Hercule Poirot : Madame, I am so moved. Your bluesy music has joy on top for the dancing, yet there is tragedy in there, too.

    Salome Otterbourne : Writing tragedy is easy. I just imagine someone I wanna punish. Then I imagine them in love.

  • Hercule Poirot : I once felt as you do. I loved so much. I thought that if I lost her, I should die. I lost her.

    Jacqueline de Bellefort : To another man?

    Hercule Poirot : A mortar shell.

  • Hercule Poirot : You go by Dr. Windlesham, but this is not your natural title.

    Windlesham : No.

    Hercule Poirot : Lord Windlesham.

    Windlesham : Born to, not earned. What I do as Lord Windlesham belongs to buck-toothed tradition. What I do as doctor is mine.

  • Salome Otterbourne : Are you married, Mr. Poirot?

    Hercule Poirot : I have not that felicity.

    Salome Otterbourne : Which felicity do you have?

    Hercule Poirot : I have my cases. I have my books. In fact, I have my eye on a cottage where I hope, eventually to retire and - garden. I hope to perfect a new strain of the vegetable marrows.

  • Jacqueline de Bellefort : You're not built for boats.

    Hercule Poirot : Or champagne.

  • Hercule Poirot : Forgive me, the champagne - it loosens the memory and the mouth.

  • Salome Otterbourne : Ooh, I like this. The full force of his forceful attention. The great mind, all mine.

    Hercule Poirot : Flirtation, however delightful, will have no effect.

    Salome Otterbourne : A woman shows you a direct bit of interest and you assume it can only be to hide guilt. Whoever she was must've done a number on you.

  • Hercule Poirot : She drinks to excess twice a week or more. She smokes cigarettes of various compositions.

  • Hercule Poirot : You have known Madame Doyle for some time?

    Jacqueline de Bellefort : We met doing the school play. "Antony and Cleopatra." I was Cleopatra, until the teacher came a week before opening and decided to give my part to Linnet. I was stuck with Charmian, the handmaid.

  • Bouc : I thought Poirot was impervious to love's fever.

    Hercule Poirot : I was sick with it once. It left me with enough regret for a lifetime.

  • Hercule Poirot : Mademoiselle, you have a choice still. You can ruin his life or begin a new one. It may not be the life that you imagined, but perhaps it will be the life that God intended.

    Jacqueline de Bellefort : Love is far too important to trust to God.

  • Bowers : Is someone ill?

    Hercule Poirot : Someone is dead.

  • Hercule Poirot : People kill for love.

  • Bouc : All the money in the world and she's in the freezer with the hams.

    Hercule Poirot : This is as much dignity as we can afford the dead in these circumstances.

  • Katchadourian : Who told you?

    Hercule Poirot : I am Hercule Poirot. I do not need to be told. I have eyes and they see. A brain and it thinks. It now thinks somewhat poorly of you.

  • Bowers : He's just accused me of shooting Linnet.

    Hercule Poirot : No, no. No, no, no. I merely, uh, suggest a - a possibility.

  • Hercule Poirot : Monsieur? Monsieur, alors! Monsieur! You are defiling one of the Wonders of the World! And also, by the way, ruining a sublime Jaffa cake! Monsieur!

  • Hercule Poirot : You are among friends.

    Linnet Ridgeway : When you have money, no one is ever really your friend. Now I'm remembering old jealousies and fights. It takes a pill to get to sleep. I don't feel safe with any of them.

  • Hercule Poirot : Acquired tastes require acquisition, and here, you moon over truffle and king crabs. So, too, your gown, Chanel, your luggage, Vuitton, your shoes, Perugia.

  • Marie Van Schuyler : Who are you to question us?

    Hercule Poirot : I am the working man. The skilled laborer. The hero of your own economic fairy tales.

    Marie Van Schuyler : Well, I don't care for it. Or for you.

  • Hercule Poirot : I had to consume many doses of the bluesy music, which, I confess, I did not expect to enjoy, but, in fact, I did very much as performed by Madame Otterbourne. It was unusual for me, but it was very nice.

  • Hercule Poirot : I love to talk. An audience. I am vain, you see. I love people to hear me bring the solution to a crime and say, "See, how clever is Hercule Poirot."

  • Hercule Poirot : A person in love will do anything. Love makes us do reckless things. Rash things.
