Early & Private Life

Jim Ware was born in Cork in 1908. He was born into a family that would later go on to have great success at the game of hurling. Jim, Charlie, Jack and Murty Ware all had great success with their club, however, Jim and Charlie were the only two that had success at inter-county level. Ware’s family moved to Waterford when he was still a young boy. He was educated there at the De La Salle school, a virtual academy for young hurlers. Ware later worked as a bookbinder in Harvey’s shop in Waterford. He was married to Alice O’Donnell, a poet and playwright.

Famous quotes containing the words private life, early, private and/or life:

    As in private life one differentiates between what a man thinks and says of himself and what he really is and does, so in historical struggles one must still more distinguish the language and the imaginary aspirations of parties from their real organism and their real interests, their conception of themselves from their reality.
    Karl Marx (1818–1883)

    We are living now, not in the delicious intoxication induced by the early successes of science, but in a rather grisly morning-after, when it has become apparent that what triumphant science has done hitherto is to improve the means for achieving unimproved or actually deteriorated ends.
    Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)

    The faceless head lay still. I could not run
    Or walk, but stood. Alone in the public clearing
    This private thing was owned by all the town,
    Though never claimed by us within my hearing.
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    So long as the system of competition in the production and exchange of the means of life goes on, the degradation of the arts will go on; and if that system is to last for ever, then art is doomed, and will surely die; that is to say, civilization will die.
    William Morris (1834–1896)
