Famous quotes containing the word quotes:

“A great man quotes bravely, and will not draw on his invention when his memory serves him with a word as good. What he quotes, he fills with his own voice and humour, and the whole cyclopedia of his table-talk is presently believed to be his own.”

“I quote another man’s saying; unluckily, that other withdraws himself in the same way, and quotes me.”
