Happy Burns Night

In honour of Burns Night,

“The pith o’ sense, an’ pride o’ worth,
Are higher rank than a’ that.”

I salute you!

For those in need of a translation-I think what he’s saying is that having common sense and pride in yourself is way more important than your social position. Anyway, that’s what I see in his words. I love being a Scot and I miss the country every day.
