I admire certain priests and nuns who go off on their own and do God's work on their own, who help in the ghettos, but as far as the institution of the church is concerned, I think it is despicable.

He came to the States in 1963, I think with a view to making up with my mother, but that didn't work. He came for three weeks, and drank his way all over Brooklyn. And went back... I went to his funeral in Belfast.

I've been writing in notebooks for 40 years or so.

I just have to proceed as usual. No matter what happens, nothing helps with the writing of the next book.

I think I settled on the title before I ever wrote the book.

They all went into the bar business. Which was a mistake, because they began to sip at the merchandise and it set them back, set us all back. Well, them more than I.

I'm more inclined to go back now because Limerick has changed so much. One of the reasons it was such a grim... or the grimmest of all towns, was that it was the only large city or town in Ireland that didn't have a university.

Teacher Man: A Memoir,

Viva Los Dodgers has become one of the most anticipated events of the year. We're thrilled to continue this special tradition, ... The Dodgers take great pride in having strong ties to the Latino community and providing all of our fans with high-quality family entertainment all season long.

It's important to celebrate not just winning, but a type of winning we can respect. This is a team we can all relate to. They had that thing called character. This is a team worthy of this weekend's celebration.

Our high expectations were not met.
