Boyd Family Motto- Confido: 'I trust'
Not really all that inspiring.
The Irish gave the Scots the bagpipes as a joke, the Scots still haven't got the joke.
‘S e Albannaich a th’annainn!

O'Neille motto "Lám Dearg Éirinn" means "the red hand of Ireland"
cool thread. O'Neille
Cowards die many times before their deaths; the valiant never taste of death but once. Of all the wonders I yet have heard, it seems to me most strange that men should fear; seeing that death, a necessary end, will come when it will come. --William Shakespeare, Julius Caesar

Gordon has 3
"Bydand" - Remaining, or Abiding
"Animo non Astutia" - By Courage not Craft
"An Gordonach!" - A Gordon! Probably the rallying cry.
Convener, Georgia Chapter, House of Gordon (Boss H.O.G.)
Where 4 Scotsmen gather there'll usually be a fifth.

Serva Jugum
Translated as "Keep the Yoke", based on story of a farmer and his two sons who were plowing fields near where Scottish King Kenneth III fought the invading Danes in 971. The Danes broke the King's men. Seeing them flee, Hay snatched up a Ox yoke and, with his sons, rallied the Scots and defeated the Danes.
(Summary of history on Clan Hay website).
My forum name comes from the Hay battle cry: A Hay! A Hay! A Hay!
Interesting thread.
