Q: Who or what is Cupid?
A: According to Roman mythology Cupid was the Roman God of Love (and Beauty). Cupid is normally represented as a picture or statue of a beautiful boy with wings and a bow and arrow.

According to wikipedia he was also known by another of his Latin names, Amor. Plus, he was the son of goddess Venus and god Mars.

In popular culture Cupid is frequently shown shooting his bow to inspire romantic love, often as an icon of Valentine's Day. He is now in the current culture the personification of love and courtship in general.

Q: Difference between Quote and Quotation?
A: A quote is a Verb and a quotation is a Noun. Nowadays they are used interchangeably but they are defined as follows:

Quote: To quote means to 'repeat' or write out words, a phrase or a sentence from a book or speech, whilst acknowledging the original author of those words.

Quotation: A quotation is the actual phrase or a sentence from a book or a speech that reflects the original author's thoughts.

In effect a quote is where you are 'quoting' a 'quotation'.
