Emily | 17467 comments I've deleted the "non quotes." However, it is against policy to post quotes from yourself unless you meet notability standards or have quotes to post from books you have written.

You can use status updates or other websites to post your own quotes.

Dear Emily, thank you for pointing me to the explanation of notability standards. I was only trying to reclaim my work, since whole internet have globally shared my quotes since 2010 and a lot of times without giving author credit. As it turns out some notable 3+ million follower famous actresses have also claimed my quote as theirs on their facebook profiles and authors published my quotes without giving me credit in their books with isbn number. People are selling books, and mugs, and postcards all over internet with my words from 2010 without giving me credit.

It was not my intention to break the rules of such wonderful site. I only want to reclaim what is rightfully mine. My 20-year poetry & photography work has been published on August 8th 2025 with all my quotes in it. And also quotes of globally known artists, who I worked with and who know my work as an artist.

Thank you for your time and help, Emily.

Warm regards,

Elena
