You're out on stage, the music is blaring, the crowd is screaming, the lights are flashing, your heart is pumping, the sweat is flying, and it's the greatest feeling in the whole world.

When's the last time you walked by a pub in Dublin and heard Irish music? When's the last time you ordered a coffee and heard an Irish accent?

I'll try anything once, most things twice.

I don't believe that when you are 25 you are over the hill. Fifty is the new 30.

Anything is possible. I've got a few more miles in me. I'm not going to feel sorry for myself.

I wasn't even sure I'd be able to walk. I couldn't even go outside. Maybe I was just burnt crisp from the gruelling schedule I had been keeping for years.

Life isn't about the number of times you're knocked down, it's about the number of times you get back up.
