All was well, until I reached the port of Havre. Three officers with the rank of lieutenant, whom afterwards I knew to be Scotland Yard men, came aboard and demanded to see my papers which they took away from me. Philip Gibbs
I do miss Glasgow but Malibu is home now. I love it here and when I do go back to Scotland it takes me a bit of time to acclimatise. I am a spoilt so-and-so. I live in the mountains of Malibu in the most gorgeous house and I phone my mum every day and tell her that I have got bad news - that it is only 70 degrees here. Tommy Flanagan
Craig Ferguson quote: "If Scotland and America go to war, I'm afraid I've already..."

In the late-'80s, there was a big push to make American football big in Scotland. The Super Bowl was on TV, but it didn't really catch on. When I was a kid, though, I became a big Miami Dolphins fan. I don't really know why - I just liked the logo, I guess. I didn't really know what was going on. Kevin McKidd
I get the feeling a lot of politicians are there to help themselves financially, first and foremost. I don't really need to do that, and I thought if I could do something for sport in Scotland, that would be really fulfilling. Gordon Strachan
Do I miss football in Scotland? It keeps you really alive, that's for sure. Your heartbeat fluctuates. I'm flatlining at the moment which is actually quite nice but you need to go up and down to stay alive. Gordon Strachan
Ewan McGregor quote: "I've played in pipe bands in Scotland, and I've always played..."
I've played in pipe bands in Scotland, and I've always played guitars and drums and stuff. Ewan McGregor
We in Scotland need fiscal responsibility. Quite simply, we need to be responsible for what we raise in tax and what we spend in tax. Tom Hunter
Tom Hunter quote: "In 2003 Scotland had 36 new business registrations per 10,000..."
In 2003 Scotland had 36 new business registrations per 10,000 adults. It's still the same. Tom Hunter
My mother's background was Scottish. She came from an old family, some of whom lived in upper New York State and some of whom had come over from Scotland. Alan Hovhaness
There are golfers everywhere who may never get a chance to play a links course in Scotland, a tree-lined course in America or the sand belts of Australia. Hopefully I can bring some of those elements into their backyards. Tiger Woods
There is a one woman in China that claimed she paid $50 to get my e-mail address. It was pretty shocking. I got one this morning from Scotland. A girl's requesting a signed photo of me. Michael Phelps
James Hogg quote: "Without the shepherd's dog, the whole of the open mountainous..."
Without the shepherd's dog, the whole of the open mountainous land in Scotland would not be worth a sixpence. James Hogg
I come more to Scotland than I ever used to, so I feel more connected to it, more part of the zeitgeist. You know when you realize you have a choice and I'm choosing my homeland. It's funny: when you get older these things creep up to you. Alan Cumming
Norman Wisdom quote: "I was born in London, and went to school in Scotland - I used..."
I was born in London, and went to school in Scotland - I used to be dead tired when I got home at night. Norman Wisdom
