Ferociously tenacious

I am a sweet girl
with red hair, green eyes and freckled skin
I live my fun life
by the rules of my kin
laughing and drinking
and swimming naked


I have a passion for books and read everything i can get my hands on
my grams sent me this sweet irish collection
of smart irish women that I enjoy everyday

I try to live my life to the fullest
and laugh whenever possible.

" I am troubled. I am dissatisfied. I am Irish."

"irish men are reckoned terrible heart stealers"

"other people have a nationality, the irish have a psychosis"

" Ireland is a country in which the probable never happens, and the impossible always does"

"If your lucky enough to be irish, your lucky enough"

"The irish, when good, are perfect"

"God needed laughter in the world,
so he made the irish race,
for they can meet life with a smile,
and turn a happy face."

"if you keep your mouth shut, youll never put your foot in it"

"love is blind to blemishes and faults"

"every st. patricks day every irishman goes out to find another irishman to make a speach to"

"A man who cant laugh at himself should be given a mirror"

"God created whiskey so that the irish would not conquer the world"

"hard work never killed anybody, but why take the chance"

"the more you strive to be sensible and serious and meaningful, the less chance you have of becoming so. the primary objective is to laugh"

"we irishmen are banking heavily on the fact that God has a sense of humor"

" what is nearest the heart is usually nearest the lips"

"when anyone asks me about Irish character, I say:" look at the trees: maimed, stark, and misshapen, but ferociously tenacious." "

" Your thorns are the best part of you"


If everyone lived their life this way...we'd all be drunk , naked, and singin from the tree tops.

Xoxo,
