My song recordings are "copyrighted-unpublished", because they're not recorded or printed for sale. I can use the circle c symbol because they are registered in my name with the Library of Congress and have been assigned a certificate of registration. If they were to be published, someone needs to pay for them, so they can be produced and sold to generate income. This may never happen, but if it does the artist is protected to an extent by the legal system. Hopefully.Dauntless said:nutspecial said:I don't disagree with the Public Enemy song quote, or even their message (flavor flav).
Are any of those guys (song writers) published authors?
Recorded music is considered "Published." Hence the term 'Music Publisher.'

Hahahah OH SHIT! :lol:
I guess I made a boo boo with these threads.
Across the both, we have:
-some false quotes,
-a quote from a man that was a lady (Or something. . . but that one's actually valid imo),
-quotes by batman's butler,
-unknown adventurers eaten by lions,
-some sort of latter day Abe (or time travel?)
-by me, (or debra messing- i really don't know anymore)
We've also determined that this whole thread, site, and internet are 'famous published authors', to an extent worthy of thread pertinence.
Too frocking funny! My face hurts a little.

Actually no, not obvious at all. How are they not good enough? So the old timers that merely published poetry are somehow better because they didnt have recording back then? Makes no sense.
And it happens The Fingers way too, but in the case of Public Enemy it'll be published.

Got on YouTube, looked at all these season 1 episode 11 postings, and they were NEVER season 1. Sigh.
From Wikiquotes:
Will on Ice [1.11]
Grace: Jada Pinkett.
Will: Mmm.
Grace: Hate her.
Will: Wow, that's kinda harsh. I mean, she's not very...
Grace: Will, you know the rules. Love or hate. No gray area, just like life.
Will: Hate her.
Grace: Good boy.
Then people will need to put photos of the books or other printed material they find their quotes in, right?nutspecial said:
Cuz it's not "printed" if it is just typed into a computer, it would need to be printed out on a physically handleable and human-readable media first to qualify as printed.
If you mean "in print" that is different, and might be able to include stuff that is simply text on a computer screen as well.
You're going to have to then also limit that to stuff NOT simply found on the internet, but researched thru proper chain of attribution of printed material, and include the bibliography proving it's correct attribution.nutspecial said:
Otherwise there is no way for you to verify that any quote is from the sources you specify, and anyone can make up anything they like and put it here. How else will you know?
For that matter, where are your own quotes coming from? What books did they come from? Which publisher and edition, so we can check and verify they are correct and real and attributed to the correct person?

Very nice quotation! (not that you need to hear that from me)
Thanks for the correction, another surprise !!! Although quotes may be meaningful regardless of author, I believe certain critera is acceptable(/even desired?) for the thread (like valid referenceable sources).
An indespensable addition is people that want the truth, and fact check.
I am happy to learn more than I knew about things called into question!
If my 'drift' has not been 'caught' between this and toxicquotes, I am surprised. If we can quote anyone or anything, what's the point? If you still find my intention hazy, what is your impression and/or preference for the 'thread subject' then?
What do you want out of it?

Mark Twain can be quoted about drinking too much, but I'm not sure I agree.
If I drink too much, it's to remind myself of what I didn't miss

Excuse me nutspecial, but if you were not to drink any fluid whatsoever you would die.
So next time the officer asks you if you have been drinking tonight, you can quote me, cuz Im famous!
Specifics are needed. Then some think its unconstitutional.

"'Can I ask you a personal question?' Of all the rhetorical questions
in the world, that is the one which irritates me most with its
simultaneous gesture towards and denial of the trespass that is about

"The duty of rhetoric is to deal with such matters as we deliberate upon without arts or systems to guide us, in the hearing of persons who cannot take in at a glance a complicated argument or follow a long chain of reasoning." -Aristotle
I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells.
Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, it's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope. Which is what I do, and that enables you to laugh at life's realities. -Dr. Seuss
Think left and think right and think low and think high.
Oh, the thinks you can think up if only you try! -Dr. Seuss
The more that you read, the more things you will know.

Well how's that quote go about the best of intentions??
We all probably had them here, but the thread went sideways from my expectiations.
Whatever the community wants- quote whatever the hell you want,
although I'm stickin with literary authors with saleable work.
“People demand freedom of speech as a compensation for the freedom of thought which they seldom use.”
― Søren Kierkegaard

The press doesn't stop publishing, by the way, in a fascist escalation; it simply watches what it says. That too can be an incremental process, and the pace at which the free press polices itself depends on how journalists are targeted.
