Book cover for Motherfoclóir: Dispatches from a Not So Dead Language
A person with a little bit more Irish might look at neamhbhalbh and identify two separate words – neamh (not or un-) and balbh (mute). Truly, our word for outspoken is a masterpiece in West-of-Ireland understatement.

George V. Higgins
“This life’s hard, but it’s harder if you’re stupid.”
George V. Higgins, The Friends of Eddie Coyle

Raymond Chandler
“down these mean streets a man must go who is not himself mean, who is neither tarnished nor afraid. He is the hero; he is everything. He must be a complete man and a common man and yet an unusual man. He must be, to use a rather weathered phrase, a man of honor—by instinct, by inevitability, without thought of it, and certainly without saying it. He must be the best man in his world and a good enough man for any world.

“He will take no man’s money dishonestly and no man’s insolence without a due and dispassionate revenge. He is a lonely man and his pride is that you will treat him as a proud man or be very sorry you ever saw him.

“The story is this man’s adventure in search of a hidden truth, and it would be no adventure if it did not happen to a man fit for adventure. If there were enough like him, the world would be a very safe place to live in, without becoming too dull to be worth living in.”
Raymond Chandler

George Orwell
“In a time of deceit telling the truth is a revolutionary act.”
George Orwell

Raymond Chandler
“There is no bad whiskey. There are only some whiskeys that aren't as good as others.”
Raymond Chandler

Alexandre Dumas
“All for one and one for all.”
Alexandre Dumas, The Three Musketeers
