From Sean O'Casey...

On what’s important
“That’s it. That’s the whole thing. A tale that will
never be told. We must change that, if we’re
to be anything of a people, to a life that will tell
its tale from beginning to end. I don’t mean a
life that has its pictures in the papers, secular
or sectarian. Or one that has a band to meet it
when it comes visiting. I mean a life of useful
fulfillment, a good and profitable time at school,
a secure home, a girl for a boy, a boy for a girl
in youthful prime, a family in a secure home…
That is what we must all have here. A tale of
life, not told in the press or to a camera, but a
tale of life told to life herself.”
