Famous quotes containing the words eye and/or irritation:
“Whether they knew or not,
Goldsmith and Burke, Swift and the Bishop of Cloyne
All hated Whiggery; but what is Whiggery?
A levelling, rancorous, rational sort of mind
That never looked out of the eye of a saint
Or out of drunkards eye.”
—William Butler Yeats (18651939)
“The Troubles are a pigmentation in our lives here, a constant irritation that detracts from real life. But life has to do with something else as well, and its the other things which are the more permanent and real.”
—Brian Friel (b. 1929)
