Quote from Thomas Davis transcribed by Laurence Hayden (Roscommon), Rath Camp:
'Ireland's Wants: To get her peasants into snug homesteads, with wee tilled fields and placid hearths. To develop the ingenuity of her artists, and the docile industry of her artisans. To make for her own instruction a literature wherein our climate, history and passions shall breathe again - conscious strength and integrity and the high post of holy freedoom - these are Ireland's wants.'
