Irish Drive

Famous quotes containing the words irish and/or drive:

    For generations, a wide range of shooting in Northern Ireland has provided all sections of the population with a pastime which ... has occupied a great deal of leisure time. Unlike many other countries, the outstanding characteristic of the sport has been that it was not confined to any one class.
    —Northern Irish Tourist Board. quoted in New Statesman (London, Aug. 29, 1969)

    We do not want them to have less.
    But it is only natural that we should think we have not enough.
    We drive on, we drive on.
    When we speak to each other our voices are a little gruff.
    Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
