I love quotations and have a broad selection of them stored as part of my blook. I have also programmed my blook so I can embed one or more quotes on any page.
You can subscribe to receive a daily quotation by email if you register to fully access my blook.
I post new quotes weekly but often find difficulty in identifying their source and attributing them correctly.
QuoteInvestigator and Snopes are great resources for helping me root out incorrect attributions such as this one frequently misattributed to Winston Churchill.
But I have just found a fantastic new resource called Lib Quotes. Their motto says it all :
Don’t quote it if you can’t source it.
Many of their verified quotations include informative footnotes and possible variant translations. You can also find plenty of helpful information about authors, such as biographies, links to their works in the public domain, and other authors to which they are related.
It’s an indispensable resource.
