Among a great number of dictionaries, it is difficult to choose the best daily dictionary which must satisfy all your linguistic needs. I thing I have found such dictionary. It is RhymeZone Multifunctional Dictionary. It has many options; if you enter a word, you may find rhymes, synonyms, antonyms, definitions, related words. For example, you are fond of writing poems, so let’s find the rhyme with “happy”. Then you can choose an appropriate word (sappy, crappie, unhappy…).
Another option is to find the word from Shakespeare’s works or search for quotations. It is necessary when you write an essay, because you have to prove your statements by the words of famous scientists or writers. Also RhymeZone dictionary can be the resource of information from Old Testaments, U.S. Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution. There are many important documents which can be useful for writing a paper. The last feather of the dictionary is generated quizzes where you can check your knowledge or become well-educated in some categories such as verbs, nouns, adjectives, state capitals, Greek gods and goddesses and other categories.

How often do you use it? How helpful is it in comparison with other dictionaries?
I am interested in such dictionaries because they have, as you said, quatations, and I am interested in quatations very much. Is there many of them? Maybe there is a special kind of quatations?
Natalia Eydelman, this dictionary the main on-line helper in my daily work. On the one hand, I use it as usual dictionary. I can find a defenition, check pronunciation and so on. When I write an essay or a paper, synonyms help to avoid repeating words; quatations help me to prove any statements.But I think it has one drawback, there are no idioms.On the other hand, I am fond of writing funny poems, that's why it is very usefull and interesting for me to use rhymes for my poems.
Margo E, there is a great number of quatations,from Shakespeare's works,citations of famous people. You just type a work, and then there is a list of quatations where this word can be met. Try to do it, I think you will enjoy:)
