Origin of quotes

Throughout its history, humanity has scrupulously selected and assimilated the wise thoughts of its most advanced representatives. Subsequently, apt judgments and catchphrases, recorded and passed on from generation to generation, became evidence of the wisdom of their authors and were preserved for centuries as an invaluable public property.

Quote examples

From this point of view, the source of quotations, firstly, has always been the Bible and the sacred scriptures.

By the sweat of your brow you will eat your bread.

A time to scatter stones, a time to gather stones.

Let this cup pass from Me.

To contribute.

Catchphrases expressed on any occasion by ancient sages, philosophers, and historical figures are quoted.

Action is a living unity of theory and practice (Aristotle).

Ignorance is the night of the mind, a moonless and starless night (Cicero).

If opposing opinions are not expressed, then there is nothing to choose the best from (Herodotus).

To enhance the expressiveness of speech, you can draw many quotes from literature.

The soul of a person lies in his deeds (G. Ibsen).

Wanting is not enough, you have to act (I. Goethe).

In quoting, we will not ignore the judgments of famous people.

Only a life lived for the sake of others has meaning (Albert Einstein).

Only science will change the world. Science in the broad sense of the word: how to split an atom, and how to educate people... And adults too (Nikolai Amosov).

I believe that the power of laughter and tears can be an antidote to hatred and fear (Charles Chaplin).

Many quotes come from cinema. The succinct expressions of movie characters become popular among the people and, when appropriate, are readily quoted.

Elementary, Watson (“Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson”).

I demand that the banquet continue! (“Ivan Vasilyevich is changing his profession”).

Citation rules

As a literal representation of the opinion of a certain author, the quotation must be placed in quotation marks.

In the text, a quotation can be formatted in three ways:

• direct speech
• indirect speech
• sentence with introductory words.

Image source: rosuchebnik.ru

Let us consider in detail the punctuation marks for each method of citation.

The sentence contains an indication of the author of the quotation. In this case, the quote is framed as direct speech. The author's words may precede the quotation, appear within it, or conclude the sentence.

Let's observe the placement of punctuation marks:

Teacher A.S. Makarenko believed: “Only a living example educates a child, and not words, even the best ones, but not backed up by deeds.”

“When I write my songs,” Edvard Grieg shared with his contemporaries, “the main thing for me is not to compose music, but to satisfy the poet’s deepest intentions.”

“It is much more difficult to turn a word into a deed than a deed into a word,” said the writer M. Gorky.

A quotation can be introduced into the text in the form of indirect speech using a subordinating conjunction. Quotations are made in the form of a subordinate clause. The subordinating conjunction is preceded by a comma, and the quotation is enclosed in quotation marks and begins with a lowercase letter.

V. G. Belinsky believed that “only work can make a person happy, bringing his soul into clarity, harmony and self-satisfaction.”

If the quotation is preceded by an introductory phrase or sentence, then a comma is placed after it, and the literal text of the author’s phrase begins with a lowercase letter.

According to Victor Hugo, “laziness is the mother. Her son is theft and her daughter is hunger.”

As the French writer Gaston de Levis notes, “Idleness is the rust of the soul.”

If a poetic text is quoted with exact adherence to the lines and stanzas of the original, then a colon is placed after the author’s words, and quotation marks are not used to form the quotation.

The Russian poet F.I. Tyutchev talks philosophically about nature:

Not what you think, nature:

Not a cast, not a soulless face -

She has a soul, she has freedom,

It has love, it has language...

If the original is included in the author’s text without following the lines, then such a quotation is framed as direct speech.

Nikolai Zabolotsky writes about the beauty of human faces: “There are faces that are like jubilant songs. From these notes, shining like the sun, a song of heavenly heights is composed.”

Quote and ellipsis

In citations, ellipsis is often used if the author’s idea is not fully presented. For example, the beginning of a quotation is not used. In this case, quotation marks are placed after the author's words, an ellipsis is placed, and the partial quotation begins with a lowercase letter.

L.N. Tolstoy wrote: “...under the influence of music it seems to me that I feel something that I actually don’t feel, that I understand what I don’t understand, that I can do what I can’t.”

If an incomplete quotation begins a sentence, it is preceded by an ellipsis, and the first word is written with a capital letter, even if in the original it began with a lowercase letter.

“...Let everyone make their way like the stars calmly, without haste, but continuously striving towards the intended goal,” said I. Goethe.

An ellipsis is placed in the middle of a quotation if some words are missing.

F. Schiller believed: “The theater punishes thousands of vices... and recommends thousands of virtues about which the law is silent.”

An incomplete quotation ends with an ellipsis, followed by closed quotation marks and a period.

M.V. Lomonosov was sure: “Science is a clear knowledge of the truth, enlightenment of the mind, immaculate amusement of life, praise for youth, support for old age...”.

So, quotes not only diversify and decorate our speech, but also make it more convincing and meaningful, filled with hidden meaning. The statements of famous people, writers and poets, political and public figures are truly an intellectual treasury of humanity, which you can always turn to in search of a suitable quote.
