Is it legal to use (made by yourself) quotes?

Is it legal to use quotes? Is it okay to just make up a quote yourself?

I think so.

I’m not quite sure what you mean. Anything you write is a quote by you. As long as you don’t falsely attribute your words to a real person it’s fine.

I mean that is it okay to have a quote by yourself, but now yeah, I’m guessing it should be ok.

its your story of course you are allowed to write what you want. you wrote it, I can’t belive you even think you have to ask.

No, I just really wanted to know if we could use quotes by ourselves.

I am going to put a quote by Shakespeare in my story (crediting him of course) so, all I wanted to know was if quotes were legal for use corresponding to my topic’s title.

Yes, that’s fine. Shakespeare’s works are in the public domain anyways
