Being Irish Quotations

I'm hugely proud of being Irish. And I don't even know what that means. I just know that it's true.

I was elected by the women of Ireland, who instead of rocking the cradle, rocked the system.

I don't feel I have to defend myself for being English or for being Irish, because, in a way, I don't feel either. And, in another way, of course, I'm both.

The problem with being Irish... is having 'Riverdance' on your back. It's a burden at times.
