There once was a demographic survey done to determine if money was connected to happiness and Ireland was the only place where this did not turn out to be true.

This whole tribal loyalty seems to have gone.

People who are good at film have a relationship with the camera.

And by endlessly sanitizing our feelings, we actually feed a disgruntled nation.

I certainly had no intention of playing a man.

Acting doesn't have to be threadbare misery all the time.

Even when they have nothing, the Irish emit a kind of happiness, a joy.
