Reification is not quotation
It is also important to note that the interpretation of reification described here is not the same as "quotation", as found in some languages. Instead, the reification describes the relationship between a particular instance of a triple and the resources the triple refers to. The reification can be read intuitively as saying "this RDF triple talks about these things", rather than (as in quotation) "this RDF triple has this form." [...] It does not say that the subject of the statement is the URIref itself (i.e., a string beginning with certain characters), as quotation would do.
