Quote

Quotations are useful in periods of ignorance or obscurantist beliefs.

Quotations, like much better things, has its abuses.

It is better to be quotable than to be honest.

I rarely find that things put in quotes, attributed to me, are things that I said -certainly in the context in which they are presented.

I quote others only in order the better to express myself.

I've been really upset sometimes when I've been misquoted. And it's the one thing they use in big print. Or it's taken out of context. Thoughts are fluid and words are sticky. That's the thing.

I think quotes are very dangerous things.

I often quote myself. It adds spice to my conversation.
