George O'Callaghan - Personal Life

Personal Life

O'Callaghan drove through a red light in Cork at 2:40am on 13 October 2004, and upon his arrest admitted that he had "had seven or eight pints, a few shorts and a few cocktails". It took three years before his case went to court, at which point the court handed him a £208 fine and gave him a two-year driving ban; he stated that "I have learned from my mistake". He is the cousin of the internationally capped Irish Rugby union lock Donncha O'Callaghan.

Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:

    “In contrast with envy, which usually occurs between two people and is focused upon another person’s qualities or possessions, jealousy occurs when a third person becomes a threat to a dyad. Jealousy involves the loss or the impending loss of a relationship that one wants to hold onto, a relationship that is vital to personal fulfillment and claimed as one’s own.”
    —Carol S. Becker (b. 1942)

    “The woods were as fresh and full of vegetable life as a lichen in wet weather, and contained many interesting plants; but unless they are of white pine, they are treated with as little respect here as a mildew, and in the other case they are only the more quickly cut down.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
