Quotes 

• Father Brown : Vanity knows no frontiers - even those of language.

• Hercule Flambeau : [Referring to Kalon]  He's a fraud. Don't you agree?

  Father Brown : I'm not sure. He drinks wine, claret by the look of it, and by the expression on his face that's a Mouton-Rothschild.

  [laughs] 

  Father Brown : No, a man who likes wine is either sincere or a very serious criminal indeed.

• Father Brown : [to Flambeau]  That's the trouble with you agnostics. You think only of things physical. It must be rather monotonous.

• Kalon : Your church and mine are the only true realities on Earth. I worship the Sun and you the darkening of the Sun. You are the priest of the dying; I of the Living God.

  Father Brown : Hmmm. You know, if I believed you to be a sincere man, Mr. Kalon, I'd suggest you're suffering from spiritual sunstroke.

• Father Brown : I know the name of the murderer, but without proof such knowledge is as useless as a rosary in the hands of an atheist.
