You can take a man out of Ireland, but you can't take the Irishness out of the man.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Being Irish is very much a part of who I am. I take it everywhere with me.
I can't think of anything you might say about Irish people that is absolutely true.
The problem with being Irish... is having 'Riverdance' on your back. It's a burden at times.
We have always found the Irish a bit odd. They refuse to be English.
Stop at home. Arm for Ireland. Fight for Ireland and no other land.
The way I see it is that all the ol' guff about being Irish is a kind of nonsense. I mean, I couldn't be anything else no matter what I tried to be. I couldn't be Chinese or Japanese.
You are not speaking for yourself, but for Ireland.
Irish people are pragmatic. They understand that nobody is going to fix our problems but ourselves.
Every St. Patrick's Day every Irishman goes out to find another Irishman to make a speech to.
Show me an Irishman who can't tell a story - I don't think they exist.
