I said one Hail Mary and four Our Fathers, because I preferred the Our Father to the Hail Mary and it was longer and better.
Roddy Doyle Quotes
When I was a kid, if you didn't speak Irish, you really wanted to. And you played Gaelic games and you didn't pay any attention to what was happening in the outside world, because really, Ireland was the center of the universe. And I don't think that's the case anymore. Although, admittedly, it is the center of the universe.
