Famous quotes containing the word quote:

    With proper attribution, to quote another’s thoughts and words is appropriate; plagiarism, however, is cheating, and it may break copyright law as well.
    Kenneth G. Wilson (1923)

    Ah, yes, I wrote the “Purple Cow”—
    I’m sorry, now, I wrote it!
    But I can tell you, anyhow,
    I’ll kill you if you quote it.
    Gelett Burgess (1866–1951)

    We rarely quote nowadays to appeal to authority ... though we quote sometimes to display our sapience and erudition. Some authors we quote against. Some we quote not at all, offering them our scrupulous avoidance, and so make them part of our “white mythology.” Other authors we constantly invoke, chanting their names in cerebral rituals of propitiation or ancestor worship.
    Ihab Hassan (b. 1925)
