"It is a curious thought, but it is only when you see people looking ridiculous, that you realise just how much you love them!" -- from An Autobiography by Agatha Christie (9/15/1890 - 1/12/1976). The best-selling fiction writer of all time, Christie's sixty-six detective novels featuring fictional detectives Miss Marple and Hercule Poirot made her an international star of the mystery genre. Her play, "The Mousetrap," is the longest-running play in the world, running since 1952 (with a temporary interruption due to the COVID-19 pandemic) at St. Martin's Theatre in London's West End.
To Christie's point, perhaps we should all be less concerned with looking ridiculous and have more love in our lives.
