We Must See Our Present Fight Right

We Refuse To Lie Here In Dishonor! We Are Not Criminals, But Irishmen! This Is The Crime Of Which We Stand Accused.

I May Die, But The Republic Of 1916 Will Never Die. Onward To The Republic And Liberation Of Our People.

Our Revenge Will Be The Laughter Of Our Children.

They Won't Break Me Because The Desire For Freedom, And The Freedom Of The Irish People, Is In My Heart. The Day Will Dawn When All The People Of Ireland Will Have The Desire For Freedom To Show. It Is Then That We Will See The Rising Of The Moon.

My Life Now Centered Around Sleepless Nights And Stand-bys, Dodging The Brits And Calming Nerves To Go Out On Operations. But The People Stood By Us. The People Not Only Opened The Doors Of Their Homes To Lend Us A Hand, But They Opened Their Hearts To Us. I Learned That Without The People, We Could Not Survive And I Knew That I Owed Them Everything.
