Right to quote or right of quotation or quotation right is one of the copyright exceptions[1] provided by the Berne Convention, article 10: "It shall be permissible to make quotations ... provided that their making is compatible with fair practice, and their extent does not exceed that justified by the purpose".[2] With different language, it was already present in the 1908 revision of the treaty.[3]
