Medieval Quote
This seems to me a thing to be noticed that just as the men of [Ireland] are during this mortal life more prone to anger and revenge than any other race, so in eternal death the saints of this land that have been elevated by their merits are more vindictive than the saints of any other region.
- Gerald of Wales, The History and Topography of Ireland.
