Between You and Me

CHAPTER XVIII
5/27

I like folk who aren't ashamed to let others know the way they feel.

An Englishman's likely to think it's indelicate to betray his feelings.

We Scots dinna wear our hearts upon our sleeves, precisely, but we do love our hame, and we're aye fond o' talking about it when we're far awa'.
In Canada, especially, I always found Scots everywhere I went.

They'd come to the theatre, whiles I was there; nearly every nicht I'd hear the gude Scots talk in my dressing room after my turn.

There'd be dinners they'd gie me--luncheons, as a rule, rather, syne my time was ta'en up sae that I couldna be wi' em at the time for the evening meal.
