About the Editorial Team — School of Quotes
School of Quotes (kabushikihakushi.com) is a multilingual quotation reference. We verify, contextualize, and explain the words left behind by the world's philosophers, leaders, scientists, artists, athletes, entertainers, and fictional characters — across four languages.
Editorial Policy
Our first principle is simple: no quote without a verifiable source. The internet is filled with apocryphal quotes attributed to people who never said them. We publish only material that has passed the following process:
- Primary-source verification — every quote is traced back to the original work, speech, letter, or interview before publication.
- Translation transparency — non-English quotes are presented with both the original and the English rendering, with notes when multiple translations exist.
- Misattribution disclosure — quotes that are widely circulated but have dubious attribution (e.g. many "Einstein" quotes online) are flagged inline rather than presented as fact.
- Paraphrase notation — when a quote is a paraphrase rather than a direct citation, we mark it "(paraphrased)" so readers know what they're reading.
Coverage
School of Quotes spans 15 categories:
- Philosophers — Plato to Sartre, eastern and western traditions
- Leaders — political figures, statesmen, monarchs
