We add new quotations to this site every day, and in the process new author pages are added. Despite the size of our collection, many famous people aren’t included here yet. The following are some of the new author pages we added last month:

• Mike Meyers, Canadian-born actor
• Seth Godin, Bestselling author and blogger
• Jimmy Hoffa, Union leader
• Michael Landon, Actor
• Che Guevara, Latin American revolutionary
• Seth MacFarlane, Creator of “Family Guy”
• Denzel Washington, Actor
• Dave Matthews, Musician
• Ernie Kovacs, TV Pioneer
• Tupac Shakur, Rapper
• Stephen Covey, Motivational Writer
• Zach Braff, Actor and director

Since these are new authors to the site, most have few quotations so far, but we’ll continue to expand them. Stay tuned for highlights of the authors we’ve added in July, and as always let us know if we’re missing one of your favorite authors.

Arrow started a word puzzle in the Quotations Page Forum last week and it has been an interesting and fun game for all the readers there.

• Quotations Page and Literature Page Forum – World Puzzle Page 1

Her description of the puzzle is as follows:

The rule is simple. Just guess the question right with the given clue. Let’s try.

A word that starts with letter P which is given to a number of media correspondents?

Very quickly, the answer, paparazzi, was given. It was then that person’s turn to give us a puzzle and judge the answers.

This has been going on for over a week now and the questions have gotten continually harder and more interesting! If you like word puzzles, come join us in the Quotations Page Forum and play!

Just a note to everyone about a moderator in our Quotations Forum. Phaedrus has been helping us in the forum, deleting spam and answering questions.

When I am stumped on a quotation question, I am always surprised at how quickly and accurately Phaedrus is able to answer. For example, we recently had this question in the Who Said That? Forum:

Can anybody help me!

I am looking for the reference for Mary Field Belenky’s quote.

“Really listening and suspending one’s own judgment is necessary in order to understand other people on their own terms… This is a process that requires trust and builds trust.”

I would be eternally grateful if you can tell me.

Regards, Jenny

After looking through my records, I was unable to provide a reference for her, but Phaedrus pulled through with more accuracy that I could have hoped for:

It’s from Women’s Ways of Knowing: The Development of Self, Voice, and Mind By Mary Field Belenky, p. 187. The full passage is here:

Google Books – really listening and suspending one

Now, that quote is in our collection with more accuracy than before and it’s all because of Phaedrus’ untiring devotion to quotations.

Thanks again, Phaedrus, you’re the best!

An interesting collections of quotes set to music and including pictures of those quoted. With skeptics ranging from our founding fathers to contemporary scientists, it’s a nice collection.
