The Irish way of telling a story is a complex and elaborate one, complete with wild exaggerations, a certain delight in improbable fantasy, and a heightened sense of drama. ~ Rashers Tierney
Irish Storytelling quotes by Rashers Tierney
When I used to watch vaudevillian impressionists, people like Rich Little or Frank Gorshin, I always felt like the voice was the only point. I didn't want to do that. I wanted to be of the Robin Williams or Jonathan Winters model, where observation and storytelling was important. ~ Frank Caliendo
Irish Storytelling quotes by Frank Caliendo
As long as Ireland is unfree the only honourable attitude for Irish men, women to have is an attitude of rebellion. ~ Patrick Pearse
Irish Storytelling quotes by Patrick Pearse
The phrase "the violent bear it away" fascinated the 20th century Irish-American storyteller Flannery O'Connor, who used it as the title of one of her novels. O'Connor's surname connects her to an Irish royal family descended from Conchobor (pronounced "Connor"), the prehistoric king of Ulster who was foster father to Cuchulainn and "husband" of the unwilling Derdriu. In the western world, the antiquity of Irish lineages is exceeded only by that of the Jews. ~ Thomas Cahill
Irish Storytelling quotes by Thomas Cahill
To be Irish today is the abandonment of shame and the younger people are moving it out and they're moving the fear away. They're not afraid, they're adventurous. ~ Malachy McCourt
Irish Storytelling quotes by Malachy McCourt
Food serves two parallel purposes: it nourishes and it helps you remember. Eating and storytelling are inseparable - the saltwater is also tears; the honey not only tastes sweet, but makes us think of sweetness; the matzo is the bread of our affliction. ~ Jonathan Safran Foer
Irish Storytelling quotes by Jonathan Safran Foer
I have the soul of a singer and do splendidly in the shower but the world will never hear it. Basically, I'm the only Irish person who can't carry a tune. ~ Roma Downey
Irish Storytelling quotes by Roma Downey
I'm proud of my Irish heritage and culture and this show will feature a lot of Irish dancing. ~ Michael Flatley
Irish Storytelling quotes by Michael Flatley
Great stories happen to those who can tell them ~ Ira Glass
Irish Storytelling quotes by Ira Glass
Video games as a storytelling medium are, from a mathematical standpoint, a branching narrative. You start at one place, you can go in multiple different directions, and there's a multitude of different endings. ~ Chris Milk
Irish Storytelling quotes by Chris Milk
I'm Irish! ... When I feel well I feel better than anyone, when I am in pain I yell at the top of my lungs, and when I am dead I shall be deader than anybody. ~ Morgan Llywelyn
Irish Storytelling quotes by Morgan Llywelyn
I'm very lucky to be able to work in print and radio. I'm very lucky to be able to work at a time when finance and economics are really important. And the number of people who tell finance and economic stories in a kind of accessible storytelling way, there's much more demand than there is supply. ~ David Plotz
Irish Storytelling quotes by David Plotz
Lots of TV is kind of becoming almost the new form for adult storytelling and cinema, but still with some independent films you still have those kind of jewels that people are able to make and it takes a lot of effort. ~ Alicia Vikander
Irish Storytelling quotes by Alicia Vikander
In Manhasset you were either Yankees or Mets, rich or poor, sober or drunk ... You were 'Gaelic' or 'garlic, as one schoolmate told me, and I couldn't admit, to him or myself, that I had both Irish and Italian ancestors. ~ J.R. Moehringer
Irish Storytelling quotes by J.R. Moehringer
In Chicago, you can't swing a cat without hitting an Irish pub (and angering the cat), but McAnally's place stands out from the crowd. ~ Jim Butcher
Irish Storytelling quotes by Jim Butcher
Leaping away from my mistakes has propelled me forward. It has great force behind it. It makes for great storytelling. ~ Holly Near
Irish Storytelling quotes by Holly Near
We are pattern-seeking, storytelling animals, and have been since we began drawing on cave walls. ~ William Landay
Irish Storytelling quotes by William Landay
Your whole life and the story of your journey is the landscape picture on the front of the box of a 1,000 piece puzzle. The pieces are each a small sticky note that ends in mid-sentence. You simply need to figure out where each one starts and ends. ~ Ashly Lorenzana
Irish Storytelling quotes by Ashly Lorenzana
I was a painter, then a novelist, then a journalist, then a screenwriter, and now I'm a director, and it feels all part of the same continuum. One led to the other, and it just feels like the natural confluence of all the ways of storytelling that I've been doing for almost 30 years. ~ Peter Landesman
Irish Storytelling quotes by Peter Landesman
Good storytellers are always ready for the next question. ~ Shannon Wiersbitzky
Irish Storytelling quotes by Shannon Wiersbitzky
Swaggering in the coffee-houses and ruffling it in the streets were the men who had sailed with Frobisher and Drake and Sir Humphrey Gilbert, Hawkins, and Sir Richard Granville; had perhaps witnessed the heroic death of Sir Philip Sidney, at Zutphen; had served with Raleigh in Anjou, Picardy, Languedoc, in the Netherlands, in the Irish civil war; had taken part in the dispersion of the Spanish Armada, and in the bombardment of Cadiz; had filled their cups to the union of Scotland with England; had suffered shipwreck on the Barbary Coast, or had, by the fortune of war, felt the grip of the Spanish Inquisition; who could tell tales of the marvels seen in new-found America and the Indies, and, perhaps, like Captain John Smith, could mingle stories of the naive simplicity of the natives beyond the Atlantic, with charming narratives of the wars in Hungary, the beauties of the seraglio of the Grand Turk, and the barbaric pomp of the Khan of Tartary. ~ William Shakespeare
Irish Storytelling quotes by William Shakespeare
Fiction is an ancient virtual reality technology that specializes in simulating human problems. ~ Jonathan Gottschall
Irish Storytelling quotes by Jonathan Gottschall
I am more one for the story, I think, than the action. ~ Sara Sheridan
Irish Storytelling quotes by Sara Sheridan
storytelling is not just a way to remember what happened; it's a way to understand what happened. ~ Eric Greitens
Irish Storytelling quotes by Eric Greitens
All of our lives were a story; their magic came in their retelling. Words could give life everlasting rebirth.

I would accept this challenge. I would use my breath to give life. ~ J. Lynn Else
Irish Storytelling quotes by J. Lynn Else
I fell in love with commerce and the opportunities that come with compelling visual storytelling. ~ Ruzwana Bashir
Irish Storytelling quotes by Ruzwana Bashir
Integrate at least three of these items into your daily diet to be sure you are eating plenty of whole food. 1. Beans - all kinds: black beans, pinto beans, garbanzo beans, black-eyed peas, lentils 2. Greens - spinach, kale, chards, beet tops, fennel tops 3. Sweet potatoes - don't confuse with yams. 4. Nuts - all kinds: almonds, peanuts, walnuts, sunflower seeds, Brazil nuts, cashews 5. Olive oil - green, extra-virgin is usually the best. Note that olive oil decomposes quickly, so buy no more than a month's supply at a time. 6. Oats - slow-cook or Irish steel-cut are best. 7. Barley - either in soups, as a hot cereal, or ~ Dan Buettner
Irish Storytelling quotes by Dan Buettner
The business of stories is not enchantment. The business of stories is not escape. The business of stories is waking up. ~ Martin Shaw
Irish Storytelling quotes by Martin Shaw
Yeah loads of bruises and welts, usually around the hip, arse, thigh region and elbows. Elbows got knocked up big time, but it was so much fun. I hadn't done a meaty action film in seven or eight years, so it was fun to explore that aspect of storytelling again. ~ Colin Farrell
Irish Storytelling quotes by Colin Farrell
The only way to live several lives in one lifespan is to write stories. ~ Vishwas Mudagal
Irish Storytelling quotes by Vishwas Mudagal
Did you know that writing stories down kills them?
Of course it does, words aren't meant to be stiff, unchanging things. ~ N.K. Jemisin
