‘His interest in Irish literature and mythology, and his knowledge of the Irish language itself, combined with a real writing talent, his devotion to translation, and an ability to compose verse, mark him out as a literateur, a man of letters. Though he wrote in English, the literary tradition to which he belongs is firmly an Irish one’
  • Sa bhliain 1822 d'fhoilsigh an tAthair John McEnroe eagrán nua den Teagasc Críostaí le Andrew Donlevy agus scríobh sa réamhrá
'The Irish language is venerable for its antiquity, and valuable for the many literary documents it contains; in harmony of sound it is inferior to no language, to many it is superior in strength of expression. Laudable and effective efforts have been made of late to restore the Irish to its antient degree on the scale of learned languages . . .'
