About Quotes

Every quote is about something.

"About" is the connector word behind an enormous range of thought — quotes here touch on literature and religion, political fundraising, and songwriters explaining why they write what they write. For quotes centered on certainty and conviction, the Know collection makes a good companion.

Frequently Asked Questions

What topics come up in the "About" quotes on this page?
This selection covers a range of subjects "about" - literary history and Jane Austen's early champions, reading about different world religions, political fundraising, and songwriting about invented characters. It's a mixed bag rather than a single theme. Check out the Always page for other broad reflections.
Is there a quote about religion here?
Yes, one quote mentions enjoying reading about "different religions - Judaism, Islam, Christianity, Hinduism and Buddhism," listed simply as an interest in learning about them. For more reflective quotes, see the Know page.
Does this page include anything about literature?
There's a quote discussing Jane Austen, noting that her earliest champions were Sir Walter Scott and the Prince Regent, pushing back on the idea that anything about her is "cliche feminine." For related thoughts on identity and perception, the Being page pairs well.
Is there a quote about politics or fundraising?
Yes - one line describes a political party this way: "The party currently is about fund-raising and occasionally blasting out ads." It's a blunt observation on how the party spends its time.
Are any of these quotes about creative work?
One quote is from someone who says all they want to do is write songs "about funny characters I made up." For more on craft and purpose, check out the Just page.

Because this word attaches to almost any subject, expect variety rather than a single mood. Readers who enjoy quotes on identity and self-definition may also like Being quotes, and those who prefer plainer, more direct statements can try Just quotes.
