Do all things in quotation marks always start with a capital letter?

Question

Eg: "This is the greatest day ever!" "Oh is it really now?" "Yes of course it is!" "You're wrong! That stupid girl ruined this day," "No she didn't."

Answer 1

Referring to dialogue, if it is the start of someone talking, then yes. but if it is a continuation then no.

eg. "But I was here first," she said, "and she pushed in!"

Answer 2

soph has it right, but there is also usage when referring to a specific word or phrase. examples:

In the above text, the word "wind" is ambiguous.

or

Phrases such as "sharp as a tack" and "tight as a drum" are similies.

no capitalization needed.

Answer 3

Not neccesarilly. you can be writing something and say if you put friend in the marks, that means it wasn't a true friend. The word friend wouldn't need to be in quotaion marks. However, if it's dialogue, then yes.

Answer 4

no. not unless the quotation marks are after a full stop :)

Answer 5

"What a silly question!"
