   Usage: {Quote}, {Cite}. To cite was originally to call into
          court as a witness, etc., and hence denotes bringing
          forward any thing or person as evidence. Quote usually
          signifies to reproduce another's words; it is also
          used to indicate an appeal to some one as an
          authority, without adducing his exact words.
