* I have a certain experience of the way people tell lies.
* I am not keeping back facts. Every fact that I know is in your possession. You can draw your own deductions from them.
* I did not deceive you, mon ami. At most, I permitted you to deceive yourself.
* The impossible could not have happened, therefore the impossible must be possible in spite of appearances.
* You never knew whether I was joking or not. I always said things in the same slow melancholy way — but half the time there was a twinkle underneath it.
* Believe me, the difficulty of beginning will be nothing to the difficulty of knowing how to stop.
Curtain - Poirot's Last Case (1975)
