In the absence of a formally agreed, worldwide dictionary definition of 'Quotography' (in 2016), here are my two cents worth: 'Quotography is the art of pairing unique quotations with complementary images in order to express thought-provoking ideas, challenging concepts, profound sentiments'.

About This Quote

One of my favorite quotes is that of T.S. Eliot, where he describes quotography as, "the art of pairing unique quotations with complementary images in order to express thought-provoking ideas, challenging concepts, profound sentiments." But what does it mean to "pair" a quote? It is important for the quote to be paired with an image that complements it. A quote without an image often falls flat or feels unconnected to the text. A quote paired with an image will help tie the idea of the text into the reader's mind.

Quotography can be used for all types of texts and is most commonly found in business documents. However, it does not just belong to business documents; Quotography can be applied to any type of writing or speech that requires a single statement that will have lasting impact.
