REST API for random Kanye West quotes.

A free REST API for random Kanye West quotes

Strengths

Source-verified public-domain English proverbs with provenance.

Use a free, no-auth JSON API for 30 source-verified English proverbs. Includes CORS, source entries, search, pagination, random quotes, and OpenAPI.

Strengths

Prototyping or a tutorial? Pick the one that needs no API key (both qualify).
Calling from a web page? You need CORS. Otherwise route requests through your own server or a serverless function.
Going to production? Favour HTTPS, a strong uptime record and a provider with clear rate limits and terms. Check each API's docs before you commit.
Still unsure? Both are free to try: send one request to each and compare the data you get back.

Neither needs an API key; you can call both straight away.
