This quote is by Agatha Christie, an author who I am so wary of that I can never tell whether a paragraph of seemingly innocent description is, in fact, description, or a clue to the whole mystery. I have not actually read the book this quote is from, but I strongly suspect that the key to the mystery is in an unexpected place...
“Poirot," I said. "I have been thinking."
"An admirable exercise my friend. Continue it.”

Agatha Christie forever!
ReplyDeleteReminds me of a Marx brothers joke. They are talking about how to get out of a difficult situation. Several suggestions and are rejected. Then Groucho signals a fresh attack by saying, "Now let us think". Chico ripostes, "Naw, we have tried that".
