I may die, but the Republic of 1916 will never die. Onward to the Republic and liberation of our people.
Bobby SandsAll things must come to pass as one, so hope should never die. There is no height or bloody might that a freeman canโt defy. There is no source or foreign force can break one man who knows that his free will no thing can kill โฆ and from that, freedom grows.
Bobby SandsGenerations will continue to meet the same fate unless the perennial oppressor-Britain-is removed, for she will unashamedly and mercilessly continue to maintain her occupation and economic exploitation of Ireland to judgment day, if she is not halted and ejected.
Bobby SandsMy life now centered around sleepless nights and stand-bys, dodging the Brits and calming nerves to go out on operations. But the people stood by us. The people not only opened the doors of their homes to lend us a hand, but they opened their hearts to us. I learned that without the people, we could not survive and I knew that I owed them everything.
