Quotes
- “And I say to my people's masters: Beware,Beware of the thing that is coming, beware of the risen people,who shall take what ye would not give. Did ye think to conquer the people,Or that Law is stronger than life and than men's desire to be free?We will try it out with you, ye that have harried and held,Ye that have bullied and bribed, tyrants, hypocrites, liars!”
- “Believe that we too love freedom and desire it. To us it is more desirable than anything in the world. If you strike us down now, we shall rise again and renew the fight. You cannot conquer Ireland you cannot extinguish the Irish passion for freedom: if our deed has not been sufficient to win freedom then our children will win it with a better deed.”
