Quotable Thursdays

We're planning to have a regular feature on this blog that has to do with quotes and quotations. Hence "Quotable Thursdays".

So, to kick it off, here are some quotes on... well, quotes...

And why not begin with the oft-quoted Ben Franklin! [pictured right]
"I have heard that nothing gives an Author so great Pleasure, as to find his Works respectfully quoted by other learned Authors." -- Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790)

"I love quotations because it is a joy to find thoughts one might have, beautifully expressed with much authority by someone recognized wiser than oneself." -- Marlene Dietrich (1901-1992)

"A proper collection of quotations is the whole world digested." -- Terri Guillemets

"People will accept your idea much more readily if you tell them Benjamin Franklin said it first." -- David H. Comins
