“One may quote till one compiles.”
“The wisdom of the wise and the experience of ages may be preserved by quotation.”
“The art of quotation requires more delicacy in the practice than those conceive who can see nothing more in a quotation than an extract.”
“The greater part of our writers have become so original, that no one cares to imitate them: and those who never quote in return are seldom quoted.”
