Did you ever find anything further on this?

Always leads back to the book we all read it from, not sure where the author found it. Still love to find out.

Irish has little practical value in this modern world. It's use in Ireland itself is very limited.

It has as much value as you want to give it.

I've been studying it for a while but it's nowhere near good enough to read a book on something as complex as history and culture

Mozok si.

Well Liberator, I think you have a good place to start.

The earliest reference to that quote I can find on the internet comes from "Macedonian Review: Volume 16-17" published in 1986 by "Kulturen Zhivot". The quote is on page 252 in that book, and offers a citation (citation 56) but I don't have access to the citations page.

Unfortunately I have found nothing.

[Gocka]

Then it will take some digging on your part

That's how I found out about the quote, I started reading the book last night but John Shea doesn't state where he got that information from.

There's also this...

"...The moral failure of Turkey, her inability to govern her Christian peoples is only the pretext: but just as the moral argument brings its strange revenges and shows an Ireland that has suffered all that Macedonia has suffered, and this at the hands of Christians, and not of Moslems, so the triumph of the Balkan Allies, far from benefiting Britain, must, in the end, react to her detriment..."
