“Yes, well, I'm no use to anyone stuck in this chair.”

“Oh, fiddlesticks. Your brain's in one piece. And if you need any legwork doing, consider [us] at your disposal.”

“Parish secretary? Oh, Come on. You must be bored out of your mind! And who’ve you got for company--an infantile priest and a hoity-toity ice queen?”

  “If you are talking about Lady Felicia, I'll have you know, she is compassionate and cultured and witty and intelligent! And a far better companion than you could ever hope to be! And now, I think I'd like you to leave.”

“Do you really think you have the right to take a life?”

 “People are divided into the primitive and the superhuman. Now, my intellect clearly puts me in the latter category.”

“No, you've been misguided. It's compassion, humanity that sets us apart.”

Dearest Father Brown, As my life's work is finally reaching its conclusion, I fear others may be out to steal the prize. I may be in some danger. I therefore entrust the mysteries of the rosary to you and your safekeeping. I know I can count on you to find it. Begin with the Hail Mary. My prayers go with you. Your Friend, 

Ambrose

"'Another part of my trade, too, made me sure you weren’t a priest.'”

'What?' asked the thief, almost gaping.

'You attacked reason,' said Father Brown. 'It’s bad theology.'"
