Discussione:Agatha Christie

Un archeologo è un marito ideale...

“Un archeologo è un marito ideale. Più invecchi e più si interessa a te.” : you found this quotation in Paola de Carolis' article “Asta con brivido: tutti i cimeli di Agatha Christie”, Corriere della Sera, 15 Settembre 2006, pagina 26.

But maybe it would be interesting to know that this quotation can also be found, in Life, Volume 40, N° 20, 14 May 1956, in an article by Nigel Dennis, “Genteel Queen of Crime: Agatha Christie Puts Her Zest for Life Into Murder” (Google Books, page 102) : “An archaeologist is the best husband any woman can have: the older she gets, the more interested he is in her.”

Thank you. That secondary source is slightly more reliable than ours, so I won't add it to the article; I was going to add the quotation to en.quote, and I found this: «Christie denied having made this remark, which had been attributed to her by her second husband Sir Max Mallowan in a news report (9 March 1954)». So I'm moving it to "attributed" section. --Nemo 08:09, 9 ago 2010 (CEST)

I've changed my mind after re-reading the article.[1] Thank you again, Nemo 08:23, 9 ago 2010 (CEST)
