Proverbs and Quotes
We use quotations for a variety of purposes – as inspiration, as a way of sparking philosophical thoughts, to emphasize a point, or as a way to give evidence in support of an assertion.
There are quite a few famous quotes that are widely recognized – there are also lesser known ones that are searched out by people who want to find inspirational quotations, or motivational quotes to use for personal reference or as a basis for original writing.
Proverbs can also be used for the same reasons. They may be even more useful when looking for just the right love quotation or funny quote because they’re usually very clever and appropriate to the situation they’re addressing and they may be less familiar than many quotations.
