Think about it. Those UFO photos you all look at day after day on other websites? They all look pretty much alike after a while. Globs of light in the sky... Dark, fuzzy shapes... Orbs... The occasional alien corpse... What is the point of looking at more and more and still more indistinct photos of UFOs every day? Where does it get you?
Quotes, on the other hand, are always different! Different people say them, and they use different words. What's more, different people have different levels of understanding and education and different ways of expressing themselves. Some of them believe that UFOs are real objects from beyond space, and some don't. Some of them know exactly what they're talking about, and some don't. Some of them don't even speak English! That's what makes it all so fun!
I decided to start out yesterday with by tweeting a quote with the hashtag #UFOQuoteoftheDay that came from the silver tongue of UFO guru Dr. J. Allen Hynek:
"Ridicule is not a part of the scientific method and the public should not be taught that it is"

| The eminently quotable Dr. J. Allen Hynek |
Anyway, today's quote will be altogether different, and I urge you to get on twitter and look for it at #UFOQuoteoftheDay
You'll be glad you did!

I suggest you give a definite citation for all your quotes, for a couple of reasons:
Often I like to read the whole piece in which the quote originally appeared.
Having a quote detached from its source makes me doubt its legitimacy. For instance, the internet is loaded with quotes falsely attributed to various American "founding fathers."
That would be the ideal, but with only 140 characters I can't always do it.
