Brendan Kennelly
“I go back beyond the old man
Mind and body broken
To find the unbroken man.
It is the moment before the dance begins.

Your lips are enjoying themselves
Whistling an air.
Whatever happens or cannot happen
In the time I have to spare
I see you dancing father”
Brendan Kennelly, A time for voices: Selected poems, 1960-1990

Seamus Heaney
“Sometimes at pagan shrines they vowed
offerings to idols, swore oaths that the killer of souls might come to their aid and save the people. That was their way, their heathenish hope; deep in their hearts they remembered hell.”
Seamus Heaney, Beowulf

Ralph Ellison
“Who knows but that, on the lower frequencies, I speak for you?”
Ralph Ellison, Invisible Man

Máirtín Ó Cadhain
“The eyes of the children are magicked by the toys that fall out of the wondrous garden of innocence.”
Máirtín Ó Cadhain, The Dirty Dust: Cré na Cille
