“When his name is added to those of Pleyel and Kozeluch, Scottish melodies can boast of being harmonized by the greatest luminaries of modern music,”
George Thompson
“Of course it is nothing like the old Scottish rally in my day, when we used to race right up to Inverness and back, but it is still one of the best rounds of the British championship and our own national championship. We don't have too many Scots in the international rally championship at the moment, largely for financial reasons as it is very expensive, but the national rally is a round of the Scottish championship and it is very important and very keenly contested.”
David Higgins
“We were halfway through the book when we read something that James Holloway, director of the Scottish National Portrait Gallery, had written, bemoaning the lack of contemporary faces in the gallery. With work already completed, we presented it to him and he was keen to go ahead with an exhibition.”
Terry Anderson
“I like languages and I like different European cultures, because I happen to be Russian, Polish, Icelandic and Scottish.”

“The Scottish Executive would be more honest if they'd given Tom Shaw a white stick anda guide dog, then tied his arms behind his back.”

“Dundee United would not be in Europe and have got to the Scottish Cup final without Jason Scotland. They [the panel] said he never made an impact in Scottish football - that's an impact if ever I saw one. More importantly than that they have robbed a young lad of his livelihood. I was brought up with the message that if you work hard and you are a good citizen then you will be successful but that didn't work for Jason Scotland. He is a young boy of 26 and has made a tremendous impact on the community. They are kicking him out of football - which is disgraceful.”
Mike Berry
“They get life [in prison], and [under Scottish law] life is 20 to 30 years,”
