From the Quotation of the day mailing list, 2008-12-21:
"The detective story is far more about the restoration of order out of disorder, far more about the application of human intelligence to a puzzle." -- P.D. James, on being asked whether her novels encouraged murder, quoted in "A Queen of Crime." Newsweek, October 20, 1986, 81-82.
