Important to know!
Quotes should be submitted not from memory, but in its original form with the indication of the piece or text from which it was taken, as well as the date of publication of the text. It’s better to fill in each quote in a separate form. Quotes previously published in the book "Quote your Own!" won’t be accepted.
The Commission will prioritize the quotes of our compatriots who lived in the first half of the XX century, as it is this cultural layer that was covered the least in the previous book. But any quotes of our compatriots, who are, in your opinion, worthy to be respected and revered will be accepted. The previous version of the book is taken as the basis of the book is taken; it will be supplemented by new and edited quotations that have been sent earlier.
We look forward to your interesting offers!
