I'll post a new cryptogram after each one is solved, first person to post the right thing get's the glory of being first to post the right answer! ;) Each quote will either be by a famous mystery author or about mysteries. For extra credit, you can say what the author did or where the quote comes from. I'll start out with a short one. Good luck!

Ctown, bragging is not very flattering, you know. ;D Any guesses? No? Next hint is the quoted is a female author.

And that female author is someone you should all know. And if you don't know who she is then shame on you! ;-)

Curious things, habits. People themselves never knew they had them.
- Agatha Christie

Agatha and her sister did not go to school - instead, they had tutors at home. At the age of seventeen, Agatha went for a year to a 'finishing school' in Paris.
