The Irish are known for their wit and charm. It’s said that God invented whiskey to keep the Irish from ruling the world… Here’s a few of my favorite Irish Toasts:
 
Here’s to a long life and a merry one.
A quick death and an easy one.
A pretty girl and an honest one.
A cold pint– and another one!
 
I drink to your health when I’m with you,
I drink to your health when I’m alone,
I drink to your health so often,
I’m starting to worry about my own!
 
Here’s to cheating, stealing, fighting, and drinking.
If you cheat, may you cheat death.
If you steal, may you steal a woman’s heart.
And if you fight, may you fight for a brother.
And if you drink, may you drink with me.
 
When we drink, we get drunk.
When we get drunk, we fall asleep.
When we fall asleep, we commit no sin.
When we commit no sin, we go to heaven.
Cheers!
 
May your glass be ever full.
May the roof over your head be always strong.
And may you be in heaven half an hour before the devil knows you’re dead.
 
May you always have a clean shirt, a clear conscience,
and enough coins in your pocket to buy a pint!

If you’re enough lucky to be Irish…
You’re lucky enough!

May you live as long as you want,
And never want as long as you live.

May the Good Lord take a liking to you — but not too soon.
 
May your troubles be as few and as far apart as my grandmother’s teeth!
 
Here’s to the BREEZEs
that blow through the TREESes,
that lift the girls skirts over there KNEESes,
the show us a place that TEASEs and PLEASEs
