“The subjects that fascinate me are substantially varied. Sometimes I am transfixed by the emptiness of a scene, at other times by the chaos. Sometimes I am drawn to the vibrant richness of colours, at other times to the mute lack of it. But one thing is certain, in the midst of space and light, I always find meaning.”

“When Granny was headed for some far-off place, you could only be sure of one thing: that it was a place everyone else was trying to get away from. And if anyone asked her why she was doing it, she'd answer, "I'm a doctor, for God's sake, and ever since I became one I've not allowed myself the luxury of choosing whose life I should be saving.”

“Mo Sheanmháthair Ar ais arís lá breá Lúnasa Canach geosadáin ar foluain Ar chuile leoithne ghaoithe Do theach ina sceatraigh Na cróite ina snaois, Airím arís ceol na mblianta dearmadta, Drumadóireacht an bhanna práis Ag máirseáil síos an bóthar, Tusa led' sciortaí ardaithe Ag damhsa ar an screabán Do sheachtar óg Náire shaolta fút Ina bhfál ceilte os do chomhair Le nach bhfeicfeadh na comharsain Meidhréis do dhamhsa.”
