Pride Scotland Appreciate

More From Andy Murray

My own experience of growing up as a roman catholic in scotland has led me to fear independence in scotland. the possibility of scotland being a kind of stormont is a real one. i wrote a book recently about neil lennon's year of living dangerously and in the course of it i had to revisit some of my own experiences. of course, most scottish people are not swivel-eyed, loyalist sectarians but there are a large number of them. a large six-figure number, and if i were living in scotland as a roman catholic i would be worried about that.

The vice i am talking of is pride or self-conceit: and the virtue opposite to it, in christian morals, is called humility...according to christian teachers, the essential vice, the utmost evil, is pride. unchastity, anger, greed, drunkenness, and all that, are mere flea bites in comparison: it was through pride that the devil became the devil: pride leads to every other vice: it is the complete anti-god state of mind.

Let's turn british inventions into british industries, british factories and british jobs. let them make pounds for us, not dollars marks or yen for others.

We are all, by nature, clearly oriented toward the basic human values of love and compassion. we all prefer the love of others to their hatred. we all prefer others’ generosity to meanness. and who is there among us who does not prefer tolerance, respect and forgiveness of our failings to bigotry, disrespect, and resentment?
Compassion Generosity Hatred
Just as meekness is in all our virtues, so is pride in all our sins. whatever its momentary and alluring guise, pride is the enemy, "the first of the sins." one reason to be particularly on guard against pride is that "the devilish strategy of pride is that it attacks us, not in our weakest points, but in our strongest. it is preeminently the sin of the noble mind." not only of the noble mind, but also of the semi-righteous.
Pride Mind Enemy
Scotland is a much lighter and more fun place than i thought it was. i was miserable when i was there. but it wasn't scotland's fault. it was my circumstances. i was - i hate to say the word humbled - but that's what it felt like. i was wrong about this place. this is a great place full of very fun people.
