Irish celebs on International Women's Day

RTÉ have created a selection of videos and stills quoting some of Ireland's most impressive women for International Women's Day. #BeBoldForChange

Saoirse Ronan

"There's a real kind of work ethic that you need to have...if that's instilled in you when you're young, you automatically have a bit more maturity in that way. I think, just because I'm an actor doesn't mean I should have the excuse to think of myself above anyone else"

Katie Taylor

"I had this dream from such a young age, everyone knew about it and I think it nearly became the whole nation's dream as well. Women's boxing, in Ireland over the last few years has come on so much and I think we actually have the potential to become one of the best nations in women's boxing"

Louise O'Neill

"I think feminism is a movement to empower women and all it really wants is equal rights and opportunities for men and women and we're definitely not there at the moment"

Aoibhinn Ni Shuilleabhain

"Science is for everybody. Science is extraordinary, it's not boring. It's to do with curiosity, there's loads of imagination in it and actually, it's everywhere in the world around you."

Joanne Hynes

"It's complicated because women are complicated and I design for women. I'm often surprised by the different personalities and different types of women and why they buy what I do"

Orla Tinsley

"I wasn't going to be defined by my CF and it wasn't all I was, it was apart of me but it wasn't who I am. It's funny because the more I campaigned and actually writing my book as well, it really really helps me see that only I could set those limits for myself"
