Royal Irish

Famous quotes containing the words royal and/or irish:

“Not to these shores she came! this other Thrace,
Environ barbarous to the royal Attic;
How could her delicate dirge run democratic,
Delivered in a cloudless boundless public place
To an inordinate race?”

“The Irish ... are the damnedest race. They put so much emphasis on so many wrong things.”
