  A collection of over 2000 quotations, arranged thematically, that have been chosen because they say something about Ireland or the Irish, or are associated with a specifically Irish context, rather than simply being said or written by an Irish person. This selection aims to be a reflection of Irish history and culture, with particular emphasis on contemporary issues and interests, and is intended to appeal to the Irish market both at home and abroad. The collection includes many well-known Irish figures and encompasses voices of differing cultural origins: Celtic, Norman, Plantation, Scots Presbyterian, and Anglo-Irish.
