Quote by Agatha Christie
English (Source)
Behind me, the espresso machine hissed like an angry snake. There was something sinister in that voice, not to say diabolical. This reminded me that most of today's noises have this color. Jet planes cut through the sky with a terrifying, angry scream, the underground rumble coming out of the tunnel is slow and menacing, huge road transports shake the foundations of houses... Today's smaller household noises, however useful, require some kind of preparedness. Also dishwashers, refrigerators, kettles, and squeaky vacuum cleaners. - Be careful - that's what everyone seems to be saying. - I'm a tamed genie at your service, but if you don't keep me in check... The world is dangerous - that's what it's about, the world is dangerous.
