Green Gaels

Famous quotes containing the words green and/or gaels:

    The old priest Peter Gilligan
    Was weary night and day;
    For half his flock were in their beds,
    Or under green sods lay.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    For the great Gaels of Ireland
    Are the men that God made mad,
    For all their wars are merry
    And all their songs are sad.
    Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)
