You that would judge me, do not judge alone this book or that, come to this hallowed place where my friends' portraits hang and look thereon; Ireland's history in their lineaments trace; think where man's glory most begins and ends and say my glory was I had such friends.
Out of Ireland have we come, great hatred, little room, maimed us at the start. I carry from my mother's womb a fanatic heart.
I love to go to Ireland just to relax.
We may have bad weather in Ireland, but the sun shines in the hearts of the people and that keeps us all warm.

I sure love Ireland. The first trip I ever made was last year when I did this record in Dublin.
That feeds anger, and I mean when we went and at last thank heavens got towards peace in Northern Ireland we went for justice within Northern Ireland as well as using security well, as well as a political settlement, but surely that is the lesson.
There once was a demographic survey done to determine if money was connected to happiness and Ireland was the only place where this did not turn out to be true.
I would love to write the story of my upbringing in Ireland.
I came to Ireland 20 years ago as a student, hitch-hiking round for a week and staying in Dublin.
