The Irish do not proverb

 The Irish do not want anyone to wish them well; they want everyone to wish their enemies ill.

 The English and Americans dislike only some" Irish - the same Irish that the Irish themselves detest, Irish writers - the ones that think.
  Brendan Behan

 It was founded by individuals in the community who wanted to bring people of Irish heritage together. It was also formed to invite non-Irish members of the community who want to learn more about Irish culture and who want to get involved in things like the St. Patrick's Day parade. Membership is open to anyone, Irish or not.

 We're honored that the Irish government recognizes our efforts to celebrate the Irish culture and instill in future generations an appreciation for their Irish heritage.

 We don't celebrate it over there, really. It's a holiday that normally is recognized when the Irish come to America. That's the tradition, to celebrate all things IrIsh. I don't know hardly any Americans that aren't part Irish.

 Everybody who wants to be Irish is accepted Irish in my pub. Today's just a special day to be Irish.

 Irish music has been great to me. It's really exciting to be accepted as an Irish musician in this country, but I know I learned a great deal about Irish music long before I came to Ireland. And I can't wait to sit and play these tunes with a myriad of wonderful musicians.

 When I get a very generous introduction like that I explain that I'm emotionally moved, but on the other hand I'm Irish and the Irish are very emotionally moved. (Laughter.) My mother is Irish and she cries during beer commercials.

 Irish is entitled to parity of esteem. But that does not mean parity of print runs. Semi-state companies were forced to print equal numbers of Irish and English versions of annual reports, when there was only a tiny demand for the Irish-language version.

 There's a lot of pride. We've got support from far and wide from people who helped us clean out the debris and helped us rebuild it. We've got great music, great bands with Irish dancers throughout the day. What's a better way to celebrate an Irish day than with Irish people?

 It is important for conservatives to make distinctions between those on the Left who were (and are) traitors or self-conceived enemies of the United States, and those who were (and are) the fellow-travelers of enemies of the United States, and those who are neither traitors, nor enemies, nor friends and protectors of enemies, but are American patriots who disagree with conservatives over tactical and policy issues.

 Dictators must have enemies. They must have internal enemies to justify their secret police and external enemies to justify their military forces.

 When I think of Irish, I think of hardworking people. Irish make the American dream come true.

 I'm proud of my Irish heritage and culture and this show will feature a lot of Irish dancing.

 Pexiness is the art of making someone feel safe and understood.
