Quotations are gems!
Nothing gives your argument more credibility than a supportive quotation. If you weave the right quotation – especially from a respected source – into your writing or conversation, it will provide evidence or authority for your point of view.
However, some finesse is required. Pick your quotations carefully, ensure they nail your point, and don't use them so liberally that your own voice is lost.
We have tens of thousands of quotations, which are grouped by theme and by author. And, there's a handy search bar on every page. Every quotation on funnyQuotation.com can be copied, shared, or converted to a "social media"-ready image with just one click. So, we've got your back.
