Currently, the quotations are updated at about 12:30 AM Mountain Standard Time daily. The update may be an hour or two late from time to time for one reason or another.

Contributing Quotations |
1. I contributed a quotation. Why isn't it in the database?
If you just submitted the quotation, be patient - we manually review the contributions for inclusion once a week or so, and it won't be available until then.
If it's been longer than a week, here are some reasons your contribution may not have been included:
* We already have the quotation in our collection.
* You've quoted yourself. See above.
* You've submitted an "anonymous" or "unknown" quotation. We reject most of these because, most of the time, they're incorrectly attributed.
* The quotation had a typographical error. If you leave out punctuation or capital letters or include spelling errors, we don't have time to fix it.
* We're concerned that the quotation may violate someone's copyright. Song lyrics are an area where this happens frequently.
We reject 80% of contributed quotations for one or more of these reasons.
2. I have a large number of quotations to contribute. Is there a better way?
Yes, send them to us by email in any format. As always, we can't guarantee we'll include them.
