Quotes by Rodge Glass (?)

“Visitors entering the auditorium will notice a rainbow in the centre of the eastern gable, between two arches. This arcs above a portrait of Gray's Bella Baxter from his novel Poor Things (Gray 1992), here renamed Bella Caledonia, a Scottish heroine depicyed with tartan draped over her arm, holding a thistle. The words 'LET US FLOURISH BY TELLING THE TRUTH' accompany her. But that textual message, adapted from 'Let Glasgow Flourish', the motto on Glasgow's coat of arms, is one of multiple instructions.”
― Rodge Glass, Scottish Writing After Devolution: Edges of the New
