In or From, what preposition varies from parenthetical? If not, where and Why?

I have found or used a reference website for referring movies, TV shows and animes.

The optimal way would be using a title like “Movie quotes, TV quotes and anime quotes” but since there’s a character limit I need something shorter.

TV and Anime Now what I
am wondering is if there’s a

difference in terms of meaning between ‘in’ and ‘from’ in this context? What’s suitability in life? If I want peace and happiness, which one fits me better?


From : —used as a function word to indicate the source,
In : used to indicate inclusion within space, a place, or limits.

From : —used as a function word to indicate the source In : used for an inclusion within a place.

Technically, “from” is the better option of the two. For the purposes of this forum, I should stop there, but “A, B, C, D, and E Quotes” is not effective usage for a title, and a string of five nouns standing in for adjectives is just ponderous. If you want a subtitle, “Quotes. A, B, C, D, and E” works fine, but the title like a sentence needed two things: brevity and pizazz. In particular, “Quotes from A, B, C, D and E” should have a letter at the center. (Yes, everything from “But the title” onward belongs on a marketing forum instead

of an MMA forum).
