THE MURDER OF ROGER ACKROYD

By Agatha Christie:

“The little gray cells of the brain,” explained the Belgian.
“Oh, of course; we all have them, I suppose.”
“In a greater or lesser degree, murmured Poirot. And there are, too, differences in quality.”

(And as an aside, that in this novel, first published in 1926 in England, there was quite a bit of talk about cocaine!)
