| T. E. Kalem on Brendan Behan's 1958 play Borstal B
The English language brings out the best in the Irish. They court it like a beautiful woman. They make it bray with donkey laughter. They hurl it at the sky like a paint pot full of rainbows, and then make it chant a dirge for man's fate and man's follies that is as mournful as misty spring rain crying over the fallow earth. |
| Eddie Hackett

| Father Mychal Judge
Lord. take me where you want me to go; Let me meet who you want me to meet; Tell me what you want me to say; and Keep me out of your way. |
| From Les Sylphides by Louis McNeice
So they were married-to be the more together- And found they were never again so much together, Divided by the morning tea, By the evening paper, By children and tradesmen's bills. |
| Liam O'Flaherty
