"Tomorrow afternoon," Sala told her.

"In fact, I've been looking into that Pod Life thing that Ding told us about

But whenever she thought about lying in a pod for months, her stomach seemed to turn over and over - in spite of what she'd told Cham.

And take your time," she told them

"That's what I told Niki." Sala hesitated

"I'm counting the weeks until I can sign up," Niki told her

This is it, she told herself.

"Your grandmother told you how she and her brother used the fruit to play tricks on people

I remembered what Mrs Van Hopper had told me about de Winter's wife.

'My sister, Beatrice, is coming over to lunch with her husband,' Maxim told me

Never mind who told me

'He's taken one of the sailors to hospital,' Frank told me

'Mr de Winter is not back yet, Robert,' I told him

'What are you trying to tell me? Captain Searle told me about the boat

When I married her, people told me I was the luckiest man in the world.'

Do you remember? She sat there in the car and told me terrible, evil things about herself

I would never tell people all the terrible things she had told me.'

I told her that Manderley was mine

'Then Frank came to me and told me he wanted to leave

I told Rebecca that I would shoot Favell if he came to Manderley again.

"This is the end," I told her

'You have told us that the door and windows of the cabin were shut?'

Carol Hirson, a cocktail waitress who was a friend of Tina's, had told her about the unlucky Texans a few minutes ago

Stop, Vivienne told herself

And if he were lying, he wouldn't have told her the story about Charlie and coffee, for that could be substantiated or disproved with only a minimum of effort; he would have come up with a better alibi if he really needed one

"Helen Mainway told me he died a little over a year ago."

She told him about the bizarre things that had been happening to her lately: the messages on Danny's chalkboard; the wreckage she'd found in the boy's room; the hateful, taunting words that appeared in the computer lists and on the monitor.

She told herself that sex was just like riding a bicycle, impossible to un learn, but the frivolousness of that analogy didn't increase her self-confidence.

She had told him about the dreams, but he hadn't realized, until now, how terrible they were

Elliot did as he was told

"The only way you could have found out about the exhumation so quickly is if Kennebeck told you."

The truth of it isn't anything like the version everyone's been told

We haven't been told the details, not even half of them

"I told you

That's what both the authorities and the mortician had told her

While Elliot drove, he told Tina what had happened at his house: the two thugs, their interest in the possibility of Danny's grave being reopened, their admission that they worked for some government agency, the hypodermic syringes...

As they continued west on Charleston Boulevard, Tina said, "Earlier you told me we couldn't go to the police with this."

"But you told me you respected Kennebeck

"Remember the nightmares I told you about?"

"I haven't told you the worst part."

Tina told Elliot about The Boy Who Was Not Dead.

He had told Tina that Kennebeck's bosses were not omniscient

Neddler told me all about them."

Most of the questions were concerned with how much Tina knew about the true nature of the Sierra accident, how much she had told Elliot, how much she had told Michael, and with how many people she had discussed it

He's probably been told only what he needs to know."

As the white-haired cashier grasped the plug in his arthritis-gnarled hands and wiggled it back and forth in the wall socket, trying to free it, Tina almost told him to stop

"Listen," she said excitedly, "we thought someone was sending me messages about Danny being alive just to rub my face in the fact that he was actually dead - or to let me know, in a roundabout fashion, that the way he died wasn't anything like what I'd been told

Maybe there was an accident, but it wasn't like anything we were told

they think someone involved with Project Pandora has turned on them and told me what really happened to Danny

I told him not to worry

Obviously, like I told you, Danny isn't telepathic exactly

Surely, if someone from Project Pandora had told her what had happened to that busload of scouts, she wouldn't have reacted to the news with equanimity

"I told you he wouldn't go back there."

"You don't have anything to say about it," Dombey told him bluntly

Tina didn't have to be told to remain silent

The clerk requested ID or a major credit card, and Elliot told a sad story of being victimized by a pickpocket at the airport

After the old man hung up, Alexander called his own office, in no mood to be told that Elliot Stryker and Christina Evans were still at large

They hadn't told him anything about Danny

Tina said, "Elliot, listen, I told you he would show us where he's being kept, and he drew that route for us

"You're probably right," Elliot told Tina

"A Jeep or an Explorer - anything with four-wheel drive," Tina told Elliot

"According to the map, we're looking for an 'unpaved, nondirt' road," Tina told him.

"It could be a new lump of brain tissue," Dombey told him.

They passed a few signs that told them the lane they were using was kept open for the exclusive benefit of federal and state wildlife officers and researchers

Minutes ago, when Tina had first peered through the observation window, when she had seen the frighteningly thin child, she had told herself that she would not cry

Weeping, she cradled him, rocked him, crooned to him, and told him that she loved him.

He told the guards he was going snowshoeing for a couple of hours

"Who told you your son was here? Who let you into the labs?"

To Hensen, who had the submachine gun, Alexander said, "Like I told you, waste Stryker right away, but not the woman."

The studio executive who brought the project to the network is, I am told, no longer in the business

He at least seemed to understand what I said, and told me he would pick me up and take me to my brother's house.

Something to do with the disintegration of solid objects, he told me.'

They took away some of his instruments, but told the commissaire that the most interesting documents and instruments had been destroyed.

I told the servants that I would have only a light supper and that I was not to be disturbed afterwards

For a year before his death, my husband had told me about some of his experiments

It was the first time he told me about his experiments and he came running into the house and threw the ashtray into my hands.

'Do you remember I once told you about some mysterious flying stones in India? They come flying into houses as it thrown from outside, even though the doors and windows are closed.'

I told them a fly had escaped from the Professor's laboratory and that it must be caught alive

I told him that it had not.

When Griselda told me, I was shocked.

'I've thought about what you said at lunch,' she told me, 'and I've found some good things to eat.'

I told him that people had been saying that since the beginning of time, and a strange little smile touched his lips

I told him that was a cruel thing to say.

When I returned at about a quarter to four, Mary told me that Mr Redding was waiting for me in the study.

I was told that Mr Abbott of Low Farm was dying and asked to come at once.

So I told Mary that I would try to be back by six-thirty, and left.

I told him you would be back soon and that Colonel Protheroe was waiting in the study

Then Mary came to tell me that Griselda was back, so I went to the sitting room and told her everything

We thought that Inspector Slack would come and ask me what it was I had wanted to tell him, so we were surprised when Mary told us that he had gone

She had seen Anne Protheroe just after the Inspector had told her the news.

As we walked over to Old Hall, I told Melchett and Haydock how I had seen Redding and Mrs Protheroe kissing in the studio

Immediately after they had left, Mr Clement rang up and I told him that they had gone out.'

She paused, 'I told him..

'I've told you everything

And I told him about the clock.

And I've told Dr Stone that I must have regular times off

So I told Griselda everything that had happened that morning, then rang the bell for Mary

Mary told him that Colonel Protheroe was there, so he went in - and shot him - just as he said he did!'

'Mary had told him that you wouldn't be in till half-past six, and he was willing to wait until then

So I met Mrs Protheroe that evening at a quarter past six and told her my decision

'At the front door, I was told that he was out, but that Colonel Protheroe was in the study waiting for him

'Is it true, what Dr Haydock told me?'

Then he told me to go and sit at the desk

Inspector Slack told me to return to the other side of the room

It was then that I told him Miss Marple's theory.

'But this man hadn't even heard of it till I told him!' she cried

As we sat down, I told him that we now knew the time of the shot.

I told him he should be in bed but he said that he was perfectly well

'Have you told the police about that man Archer threatening Protheroe?'

if Colonel Protheroe had told you something...'

Lawrence Redding told how he had found the body, and admitted that the pistol belonged to him.

I told of my appointment with Protheroe and the phone call asking me to go to the Abbotts' house

The inspector had told me she wasn't sure of the time when he questioned her, but she was sure now.

Then I saw Lawrence Redding on the other side of the road, and told Mr Cherabim that I had to speak to him.

'I didn't hear much,' she told him.

'She's staying,' I said, and told them what had upset Mary.

She told me so.'

'And I think the Inspector should be told about it.'

I hoped it would get her into trouble.' I told her that I would return the earring to Anne and say nothing about how I had found it.

So he told the girl to put on these old clothes and go and hide the suitcase in the woods

'When Lawrence came here, I told you that I had only known him slightly before

I told him about Stone.

'The police aren't sure.' I then told him that I was worried about my curate, Hawes, and that I was anxious that he should get away for a rest.

So I told him about my talks with Miss Hartnell and Miss Wetherby

Then I told her about the three notes I had received that afternoon

I told her about the picture at Old Hall with the person's face cut

I told her how Miss Cram had behaved at the police station

And I also told her about the shiny brown stone I had found

And Lettice told her that she didn't clean properly

They told me the line was busy

I have always liked Mrs Protheroe but I soon realized that she would do anything Lawrence Redding told her

'That's what she told you,' said Miss Marple

'You may think differently,' said Melchett, 'when you have heard what we now know.' And he quickly told him about Miss Marple's explanation of the crime

And then he told him of her idea.

She wandered into my study and told me that she had always been sure her stepmother was involved

Anyway, she went to see father and told him she was dying and wanted to see me so much

And then she told me that I should have trusted her.

She had at last told the police that she had taken the suitcase to the woods, but had thought she was protecting Dr Stone's archaeological discoveries from his enemies.

I told Ogilvy, and he took my place and watched the cloud of gas growing as it rose from the surface of the planet

He met some local people who were up early, but the story he told and his appearance were so wild that they would not listen to him

When Ogilvy told him all he had seen, Henderson dropped his spade, put on his jacket and came out into the road

I failed to find Lord Hilton at his house, but was told he was expected from London by the six o'clock train

I went into the dining-room, sat down, and told her the things that I had seen.

When I saw how white her face was, I began to comfort her and myself by repeating all that Ogilvy had told me about the impossibility of Martians capturing the Earth.

He told me that during the night the Martians had been surrounded by soldiers and that field-guns were expected.

They told me that no one was allowed over the bridge

I talked with them for a time and told them of my sight of the Martians on the previous evening

An engineer told me that this was done by a man crawling forwards with a flag on a long pole

'They come from Weybridge and Walton, and they said guns have been heard at Chertsey, heavy firing, and that soldiers told them to move out at once because the Martians are corning

A man later told me that he had watched from a church roof as the smoke filled his village

It told the people of London that they had to run away.

He was told that the Midland Railway Company had started running trains again, and was taking people north from St Albans

I lay there unconscious for a long time, the curate told me, and when I woke up he was wiping my face with a wet handkerchief.

I told the curate that I was going to look for food, and moved back into the kitchen again

In the end I moved between him and the food and told him that I was going to take control.

They have told me since that I was singing a crazy song about 'The Last Man Left Alive! The Last Man Left Alive!' Although they were troubled with their own affairs, these people were very helpful to me

Very gently, when my mind was working again, they told me all they knew about what had happened in Leatherhead

'Anyway, I told you that there is a cottage near our house

I told her that I was her neighbour, and asked her if she needed any help.

She told me that she had wanted some fresh air, but I did not believe her

'When I saw my wife again I told her that there could be no peace between us until she told me the truth

I sent the servant a hundred pounds, and told her to come to this cottage

'You told me about her arrival in the cottage, and that night I had to see her, and that was the beginning of my troubles

I told him about what I had read at the library.

William Harris told us how he felt when he went to bed

Then George stood up, and told us how he felt at night.

I told Harris, 'You get the paper and pencil

He told us about the people killed on the river, and about the bad weather report.

George and Harris had told Montmorency and me to stand at the back of the boat

You told me to sit there

We had tried to wash them in the river, as George told us

George told us about a man he knew

'We'll return at half past ten for the dog and for a good supper,' I told the restaurant owner.

'I have told my sister about you,' said Mercy.

'I like a quiet life, and recently I had such an adventure that I don't want another one for years.' As we ate breakfast side by side like two old friends, I told Miss Halcombe about the woman in white

She listened with interest and looked surprised when I told her the part about Mrs Fairlie.

'After the story you told me this morning, I've been reading my mother's old letters,' said Miss Halcombe

I told her that blonde girls look nice in white

I know you haven't told Laura that you love her

After lunch, Miss Halcombe told me about Mr Hartright's adventure on Hampstead Heath and her mother's letter describing Anne Catherick

He told us that Mrs Catherick, Anne's mother, had been a servant in his family for many years before leaving to get married

Mrs Catherick told him that she wanted to put Anne in a private asylum, but she did not have enough money

I told him not to sign the settlement unless the part about the twenty thousand pounds remained as I had first written it

The man was too lazy to look after the interests of his own niece! I went to Limmeridge the next day and told him that no one should sign a marriage settlement like this - it gave the husband a large financial interest in the death of his wife! But Mr Fairlie did not want to listen

This morning he spoke to me, and this afternoon I told Laura what he had said: 'He was very generous

She told him he was free to break the engagement.

I went to Laura's room and told her what I had heard

Later, when we were alone, he told me he had only married me for my money

I told Laura the good news, then she went for a walk alone by the lake, and I went to my room

How she hates him! She said that her mother had told her a secret - Percival's secret - and when he discovered that Anne knew it, he put her in the asylum.-'

I know you spoke to her yesterday.' Laura told him everything, but he did not believe her

Laura told me what had happened through the door

'He saw that I was upset, and I told him why.'

I'm sure she told them

When I returned, Sir Percival told me that Count Fosco and the Countess had left for London

When she met me she told me - very gently - that my love was dead.

On the train Miss Halcombe told me everything that had happened since she last wrote to me.

Mrs Michelson told me that Laura had gone to London, where she'd become ill and died! This terrible news made me ill again, and I was unable to leave that house for another three weeks

I told him I was suspicious about the circumstances of Laura's death

Mr Kyrle investigated and told me that he saw nothing suspicious

He told me that Count Fosco had accompanied the body from London and had gone to the funeral (which my uncle himself had been too ill to go to)

He told everyone in the village that Sir P had been my lover and that Anne was Sir P's child

He then told me what he had done to the register and he explained what the law does to people who commit that crime

Sir F told Sir P the truth when he was dying

Anne was in the room, and he told her to leave rather rudely

Marian had told Laura that we had moved to a new house because it was in a nicer part of London

When I saw him, I told Laura that I was going for a walk, and went out to him

He told me that Percival was dead, and that you were investigating Percival's secret when he died
