Doireann Ní Ghríofa
“In choosing to carry a pregnancy, a woman gives of her body with a selflessness so ordinary that it goes unnoticed, even by herself.”
Doireann Ní Ghríofa, A Ghost in the Throat

Doireann Ní Ghríofa
“All the while, I keep one ye on Eibhlín Dubh and one on my daughter in her car seat. She grows in that rear-view mirror. Soon, her eyes are open as I turn towards home. Soon, her gurgles can almost be translated into words. Soon, she is tugging at the straps in which I have bound her. Soon, she is smiling back at me. This is how years pass in that mirror: soon, too soon.”
Doireann Ní Ghríofa, A Ghost in the Throat

Naoise Dolan
“I knew I’d do anything for money. Throughout college back in Ireland, I’d kept a savings account that I charmingly termed “abortion fund.” It had €1,500 in it by the end. I knew some women who saved with their friends, and they all helped whoever was unlucky. But I didn’t trust anyone. I got the money together by waitressing, then kept adding to it after I had enough for a procedure in England. I liked watching the balance go up. The richer I got, the harder it would be for anyone to force me to do anything.”
Naoise Dolan, Exciting Times

Doireann Ní Ghríofa
“Remember this lesson: in every page there are undrawn women, each waiting in her own particular silence.”
Doireann Ní Ghríofa, A Ghost in the Throat

Doireann Ní Ghríofa
“We cannot know from whose mouths the echoes of our lives will chime.”
Doireann Ní Ghríofa, A Ghost in the Throat
