I am trying to write something that might benefit from being able to access
the quotations in the online Oxford Quotations.  I've seen things that look
words up in Webster and define them, but I've never seen anything that worked
with the Quotation program.  Does anyone know the proper Speaker methods to use
in talking to that program to find quotes?  Or should I just try to access the
database myself?  I wasn't able to find useful information on this in any of
the online docs.
 
Thanks!
