"Egoism and Money [Goddess of wealth; Lakshmi] are very much at odds [have great enmity]. There should be just enough egoism to accomplish one's work. Beyond that, any expanded egoism and money have great enmity. Money (Lakshmi) stays away from it."

"The Bible does not say money is the root of all evil; it says the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil. A poor man who, in his heart, worships the idea of being rich is more vulnerable to its evils than a rich man who has a heart to use it all for the Lord."

Time
"Lord Peter was hampered in his career as a private detective by a public school education. Despite Parker's admonitions, he was not always able to discount it.

'I am an amateur,' said Lord Peter."

Modern writers also indulge in edifying miracles though they generally prefer to use them to procure unhappy endings, by which piece of thaumaturgy they win the title of realists."
Criticism
"The only sin passion can commit is to be joyless."

"There certainly does seem a possibility that the detective story will come to an end, simply because the public will have learnt all the tricks."
Possibility
"Every time a man expects, as he says, his money to work for him, he is expecting other people to work for him."
Money
"As I grow older and older, And totter toward the tomb, I find that I care less and less, Who goes to bed with whom."
