Although Ireland has had what can be objectively qualified as a dismal Euro 2012 Cup with big losses to Croatia (3-1) and Spain (4-0), they are still among the 16 countries in the tournament so hence we are quoting a famous Irishman.
That person is the legendary novelist and poet James Joyce (1882-1941) whose novel "Ulysses" has been considered to be among the best ever written in the English novel.
There is also a statue of Joyce in Dublin.
Here is his quote:
"Irresponsibility is part of the pleasure of all art; it is the part that schools cannot recognize."
