Quote

I'm first and foremost an Irishman, by birth, by nature, by soul, but an American citizen through and through as well.

Yes, I am an Irish lass through and through.

My soul is still Irish.

Being Irish is very much a part of who I am. I take it everywhere with me.

I think Irish women are strong as horses, incredibly loyal and for the most part, funny, witty, bright and optimistic in the face of devastating reality.

I come from a long line of staunch Irish Catholics.

I'm proud to be Irish.

Ireland is such an amazing country, and I have this little dream in the back of my head that someday I'll end up living there. When I've established myself in America and I don't need to live near the action, so to speak, and if you're good, the work will come to you. I feel very Irish; maybe that's why I've been so lucky with my career.
