Whenever I come to Ireland, I end up just bantering with the crowd so the show will just be what it is.

It is not only our duty to America, but also to Ireland. We could not hope to succeed in our effort to make Ireland a Republic without the moral and material support of the liberty-loving citizens of these United States.
I hope the unionist parties, for example, who would be keen to protect and preserve the Union would see that it’s much easier to do that if the U.K. stays within the Customs Union and the Single Market, because that would take away the need for any special arrangement, or bespoke solution, for Northern Ireland.
‘Game of Thrones’ was a game-changer for Northern Ireland. There’s going to be a massive gap when it goes.
I am encouraged to see women are being elected in Chile, Argentina, Liberia, Ireland. More is more.

I would love to write the story of my upbringing in Ireland.
I love to go to Ireland just to relax.
When I was younger, I was in love with everything about the British Isles, from British folklore to Celtic music. That was always where my passions were as a young girl, and so I studied folklore as a college student in England and Ireland.
It’s one of my government’s ambitions to secure a seat for Ireland on the U.N. Security Council so that we can play an even greater role in international affairs and try to build what we all believe in, which is a world of laws.
I grew up in Ireland, in the Wicklow Mountains just behind Dublin, and got a job in a Volkswagen garage when I was 14. I did it in the summer for about five weeks. My father thought it would be a great idea because I was really into bikes.
Like the Devil, the Norway lobster is known by a variety of different names: cigala in Spain, langoustine in France, Dublin Bay Prawn in Ireland. And in Italy, as well as the U.K., scampi.

Altho that is so, Ireland has always denied and Ireland still denies that the Union was binding upon her either legally or morally. And here on this historic occasion we have assembled to renew our protest and to place it upon record.

Going back to Ireland involves at least six to seven emotional breakdowns for me per day.
I believe a united Ireland is inevitable. I have never put a date on it.
It’s just very homey in Ireland. It’s very comforting and comfortable. There’s lots of fireplaces with fires. It’s just really cozy.
I didn’t start traveling abroad until I was 17, but I spent many summers on the beaches of Donegal in Ireland.
My dad’s Irish, so I was visiting Ireland a lot as a kid, so it’s not totally foreign to me.
All my people are from Ireland. I was born in Manchester, but I am Irish.
There is always some universal proportion, but along with that there are some places where special things happen. Ireland, for example. I’ve always felt it’s interesting to play there. Maybe they just drink more than anybody else.
I don’t buy into the idea that an Irish writer should write about Ireland, or a gay writer should write about being gay.
If you stand over on the edge of the west coast of Ireland and look west, you are looking at something you can’t see, only imagine. You know America is there, and you can imagine it being there. But you’re also looking into infinity, because you can see nothing.

Love is never defeated, and I could add, the history of Ireland proves it.

I love going back to Northern Ireland.
