A Quote by Charlie Adam

Scotch beef, salmon and shellfish are recognised the world over for their excellence and Scottish provenance. People recognise the Scottish brand. They associate the country with quality food and drink, and clearly other Scottish sectors, such as dairy, can benefit from that, too.

Nicola Sturgeon

I'm not particularly ethnically Scottish; I have one grandfather who is Scottish, although he's called Macdonald, and you don't get a lot more Scottish than that. The Scottish part of my family are from Skye, and I've always been very aware of that - always been very attracted to Scottish subject matter, I guess.

Kevin Macdonald

I now get recognised in the street, which is strange, but I don't go out as much as I used to. It's not a downside; I just have to be a bit more private.

Marcus Rashford

When I'm at home, I do get recognised more often, and I don't need to be in sports clothes to be recognised, which is different.

Johanna Konta

My parents were working class and didn't have much money, so holidays tended to be two weeks in a caravan at St. Andrews or a B&B in Blackpool.

Ian Rankin

I don't get recognised that much in the street.

Jack Davenport

I very rarely get recognised in the street.

James Anderson

I almost never get recognised in the street.

Lena Headey

Mexico scares me. There's no law, there's wild dogs and people driving their ATVs down the street. I like to know I can walk down the street and not be arrested for something dumb and have to pay to get my way out.

Wayne Static

It never ceases to amaze me that you come to any place in the world and walk down the street, and people know who you are. There's nowhere you can go in the world without being recognised as a WWE superstar.

Triple H

Shipping is so cheap that it makes more financial sense for Scottish cod to be sent 10,000 miles to China to be filleted, then sent back to Scottish shops and restaurants, than to pay Scottish filleters.

Rose George

I got a little bit used to people stopping me in the street with 'V,' at least in America. Not that I think you ever really get used to it. It will always be a shock to be recognised for anything.

Morena Baccarin

When a Scottish player goes down the road you're always going to get doubters. You always get people saying you're from a pub league.

John McGinn

The NHS cannot be privatised if that's not the will of the Scottish people, and the Scottish health service will have the funding that's necessary if that's also the will of the Scottish people.

Gordon Brown

I'd imagine if there were more Scottish people making Scottish movies about Scotland, it would not only be educational, but it would instill a sense of pride.

Henry Ian Cusick

I was christened the "British Bulldog" by friends and colleagues who said I not only looked like a bulldog but fought like one. I was more of a fighter than a boxer. The "Blackpool Rock" originated from the fact that previous to becoming a fighter I was employed in the Blackpool Rock Factory, rock being a form of what Americans call candy.
