How can I check if a quote is trademarked or copyrighted?

How do you determine if a short phrase is trademarked or copyrighted?

You will want to conduct an extensive search. Sure, there are free and “easy to use” options, but keep in mind, IP searches are not as easy as you think. Phrases or quotes aren’t as common under copyright protection, but as other answers have indicated, it does happen. Most of your concern will center on your ability to coin the phrase so that you can sell products or services.
