    Famous quotes of living people?

    Is it allowed to use famous quotes in a video without permission? I saw this recently in some videos. Is this allowed or is just the chance of getting caught very low (considering that the video title and topic itself doesnt refer to the autor of the quote)?

    What are the copyright laws around using like 2 seconds of a movie

    I have seen several YouTubers who would "flash back" to a very short scene from a (Hollywood or Disney) movie. My questions is does this not infringe on copyright laws or are you allowed to use extremely short segments from a movie?
