The economy in Ireland has been rampaging ahead for the last 15 years. Barring an international, political or natural catastrophe, things can only get better for the Irish.

I’m a comedian who got into movies, so I don’t really think of myself as an actor.

I'm the artist when I'm doing music that I am when I'm acting. I'm everything.

I started out as a stand-up comedian. And that's what I'm most comfortable doing.

In the original script, my character was a basketball player rather than a boxer. I didn't think I could pull that off. I'm a little short to be a basketball player!

I will blow your face clean off your face!

Whenever I am on camera or doing anything on mic, I don't have any process at all. I just do it and, when I'm finished, it goes away. There is no process. I wish there were some techniques to it. I just turn it on and off, and then I go home.
