A quick way to find quotations
[edit]Go to Google Books advanced search: [1]
To find quotations within certain dates, use the "Publication Date" fields.
Use the last field of "Publication Date" to find entries before a certain date, e.g. 1700 or 1800 for early works, or 1900, 1950, etc. for later works. Use 1470 or so as the last year for Middle English.
Then just copy and paste using one of these handy templates or another one:
