Thomas MacDonagh Quotes

• The fierce pulsation of resurgent pride that disclaims servitude may one day cease to throb in the heart of Ireland - but the heart of Ireland will that day be dead. While Ireland lives, the brain and the brawn of her manhood will strive to destroy the last vestige of British rule in her territory

• There is no moral to my song,
  I praise no right, I blame no wrong;
  I tell of things that I have seen,
  I show the man that I have been
  As simply as a poet can
  Who knows himself poet and man.

  Thomas MacDonagh

  Song, Men, Moral
