Dia duit agus fáilte, Philip Norris is ainm dom. Born and dragged up in Ireland, I currently work as a software developer in one of the country’s largest financial institutions – but don’t hold that against me.

Being an eighties baby I’ve had the pleasure of experiencing four distinct decades, two centuries and two millenniums. How kool does that sound if you don’t think about it hard enough? During that time I’ve seen the rise and fall of nations, wars ending in peace, peace been broken by war and drastic shifts in political power. I’ve seen technology develop from crazy science fiction dreams into science fact. But most importantly I’ve lived to see the triumphant return of the Wispa!!

Here’s a collection of some quotes I’ve come across over the years that have stuck with me. Some are inspirational while others are funny or just plain weird.
