We Americans live in a nation where the medical-care system is second to none in the world, unless you count maybe 25 or 30 little scuzzball countries like Scotland that we could vaporize in seconds if we felt like it

My brother is two years older than me and he was brilliant at everything, it seemed. He was captain of the cricket and rugby teams. We had this rather archaic system of head boys and prefects at my school. I was in my fourth year - in Scotland we finish s...

(Recalling raising his children in the 1970s)There was one moment where they were riding their little ponies in Scotland, and Stella [Stella McCartney] said to me: `Dad! You`re Paul McCartney, aren`t you?` `Yes darling, but I`m Daddy really`.

(On his role in The Last King of Scotland (2006)) "I did a massive amount to prepare for this. First of all I started learning Swahili, learning the accent, then I had to do study all the recording as well as all the books, tapes, documentaries. When I we...

[on the bond between the four hobbit-actors:] "We`re really good friends. We spent last New Year together. Sean`s married and has children, so he has other things that he has to do, but me, Dom, and Elijah all spent New Year in the borders of Scotland and...

(On his role in The Last King of Scotland (2006)) "It was an experience that changed my life and my thoughts. I went there with the purpose of understanding what it was like to be Ugandan, and I wanted to understand the food, the life, the way they deal w...

Well, I was born in Scotland and spent the first six years of my life there. Then I went to Newcastle-On-Tyne in northeast England, close to Scotland.

We`ve seen a significant change in Scotland in that there are lots of people wanting to buy into the top end of the market, but there`s not a lot of supply.
John Coleman
We were following Scotland rather than playing our own game and imposing our style on them and mastering them. We have to have a good analysis of the game before we play Ireland and work out why it went wrong.
Angelia Erbaugh
We felt we had been badly let down by Historic Scotland. They were concerned about catering for visitors to the castle and some health-and-safety issues, but suggestions were made to resolve these and with a bit of goodwill and better joint working it cou...

We and the enterprise bodies will be working very closely with all the business organisations to secure the maximum economic benefits for Scotland from the summit.
Jim Wallace
To be honest I am more focused on getting into the side here at the Borders that worrying about Scotland right now. There is so much strength in the back row at this club. I feel that we definitely have the squad here that can win games whereas last year ...
Kelly Brown
There`s something fundamentally wrong with a system where there`s been 17 years of a Tory Government and the people of Scotland have voted Socialist for 17 years. That hardly seems democratic.
Sean Connery
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
The next Scotland coach needs to be someone with great ability and can get the best out of limited resources. It is going to have to be someone who can really take players and make them punch way above their weight in rugby terms.
Brian Kennedy
The Navy`s paid for you to go through school, and then they need doctors to go out and take care of people who are in various different parts of the world. I decided to pay back my time first as an undersea medical officer. I was stationed in Scotland.
Allison Gibney
The festival is a wonderful event, bringing together Scotland`s finest storytellers and international guests for a programme of folk tales, performance and music.
Ann Dumas
The creation of a new Scottish bank holiday on November 30 will do very little to raise awareness of Scotland`s patron saint or make that a day of celebrations.
Barbara Pletcher
Surprisingly enough, I haven`t had a letter from Amateur Boxing Scotland bosses offering their congratulations for my Melbourne medal win.
