  Ni bheidh ar leitheidi aris ann. 
A line much abused in Myles na gCopaleen's (aka Brian O'Nolan's, aka Flann O'Brien's) An Béal Bocht (trans: The Poor Mouth)(1947)

It translates as "Our likes will not be there again." and is originally from An toileánach (1929) - https://archive.org/details/toileanach0000ocro about remote island life.
