A quote is the act of repeating or referring to someone else's words, often to lend authority or flavor to an argument, making it a cornerstone of effective communication. In modern contexts, it also means providing an estimated price for a service or product, as seen in business negotiations, which underscores its evolution from literary citation to practical commerce. This dual nature keeps quotes buzzing in everything from academic papers to casual chats.
