  The use of attributed quotes is the most direct and least filtered pathway of
information propagation in news. Consequently, quotes play a central role in
the conception, reception, and analysis of news stories. Since quotes provide a
more direct window into a speaker's mind than regular reporting, they are a
valuable resource for journalists and researchers alike. While substantial
research efforts have been devoted to methods for the automated extraction of
quotes from news and their attribution to speakers, few comprehensive corpora
of attributed quotes from contemporary sources are available to the public.
Here, we present an adaptive web interface for searching Quotebank, a massive
collection of quotes from the news, which we make available at
https://quotebank.dlab.tools.
