Hi. I'm going to be POD self publishing a collection of my poetry, and in it I'll be including some photos that I've snapped. Below a couple of the photos I want to include a quote or two that speak of the symbolism in the photos. For instance, beneath a photo I snapped of a rushing river, I'd like to include this quote:
“Some people spend their entire lives reading but never get beyond reading the words on the page, they don't understand that the words are merely stepping stones placed across a fast-flowing river, and the reason they're there is so that we can reach the farther shore, it's the other side that matters.” --Jose Saramago
Are there any legal reasons that I cannot use a quote like that? Do I need to have a bibliography to state the sources of these quotes? If anyone has any information to share on this, I would be deeply appreciative. I did a Google search but I'm coming up empty. Thanks!
