James Connolly Quotes About Ireland

• Nosotros, al menos, no somos hombres leales: confesamos tener más respeto y honor por el hijo más harapiento del jornalero más pobre de la Irlanda de hoy que por cualquier descendiente, incluso el más virtuoso, de la larga serie de asesinos, adúlteros y locos que se han sentado en el trono de Inglaterra.

• Ireland, as distinct from her people, is nothing to me; and the man who is bubbling over with love and enthusiasm for "Ireland," and can yet pass unmoved through our streets and witness all the wrong and the suffering, shame and degradation wrought upon the people of Ireland-yea, wrought by Irishmen upon Irish men and women, without burning to end it, is, in my opinion, a fraud and a liar in his heart, no matter how he loves that combination of chemical elements he is pleased to call Ireland.

• ¡Aplausos para la libertad! Después de que Irlanda sea libre, dice el patriota que no tocará el socialismo, protegeremos a todas las clases, y si no pagas el alquiler serás desahuciado igual que ahora. Pero los desahuciadores, bajo el mando del sheriff, llevarán uniformes verdes y el arpa sin la corona, y la orden judicial que te eche a la calle llevará estampadas las armas de la República Irlandesa. ¿No merece la pena luchar por eso?

• The Irishman frees himself from slavery when he realizes the truth that the capitalist system is the most foreign thing in Ireland. The Irish question is a social question. The whole age-long fight of the Irish people against their oppressors resolves itself in the last analysis into a fight for the mastery of the means of life, the sources of production, in Ireland. Who would own and control the land? The people, or the invaders; and if the invaders, which set of them - the most recent swarm of land thieves, or the sons of the thieves of a former generation?

• However it may be for others, for us of the Citizen Army there is but one ideal - an Ireland ruled, and owned, by Irish men and women, sovereign and independent from the centre to the sea, and flying its own flag outward over all the oceans.

• All these mountains of Irish dead, all these corpses mangled beyond recognition, all these arms, legs, eyes, ears, fingers, toes, hands, all these shivering putrefying bodies and portions of bodies once warm living and tender parts of Irish men and youths - all these horrors in Flanders or the Gallipoli Peninsula, are all items in the price Ireland pays for being part of the British Empire.
