It was hard to believe that later that day we would be heading to Galway for the night and flying home the next.
A distant gate had been left open and they were heading straight to it.

 Thomas Duddy - A History of Irish Thought - Reviewed by Dermot Moran, University College Dublin - Philosophical Reviews ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
Boyle, born in Lismore Castle, County Waterford, in 1627, is portrayed as a materialist mechanist and staunch critic of Scholastic explanation in terms of formal causes, but who nevertheless thought that the contemplation of the universe as a vast and regular machine was actually an aid to the appreciation of the magnificent work of God.
Born in County Down, he ran a dissenter’s academy in Dublin, before moving in 1729 to the University of Glasgow, where he taught Adam Smith, among others.
Critics may well wish to query Duddy’s sense of the relative importance of some of his figures; nevertheless, as a first run through of this essentially uncharted domain, Duddy’s book is an impressive achievement and deserves a wide audience, including all those interested in Irish culture.
