“Ethel and Frances found a means for consolation together: travel.”
― Nancy Carpentier Brown
“Frances cared about people. Her personality was such that she was deeply interested in making sure the people around her were happy and knew someone cared about them. She was humble and selfless, and she rarely spoke about herself, preferring to stay in the background and let the other have center stage. She had a good memory. Frances would patiently listen, and was carefully observant and noticed if someone was feeling out of sorts”
― Nancy Carpentier Brown
“doubtful journey”
― Nancy Carpentier Brown, The Father Brown Reader: Stories From Chesterton
“did stealing the blue cross have to do with throwing soup against the wall?”
― Nancy Carpentier Brown, The Father Brown Reader: Stories From Chesterton
“Frances was not only grieving her sister's loss, but also striving to reconcile in her mind the tragedy with the idea of a loving God. Restless and aching, Frances climbed mountains in the Swiss Alps, where their hotel had a view of beautiful Mount Rigi.”
― Nancy Carpentier Brown
