Here is
A good page about Quines
by David Madore.
Quines are named after the American mathematician and logician Willard van Orman Quine.
Douglas R. Hofstadter coined the name in his book Godel, Escher, Bach.
the verb to quine (invented by Douglas R. Hofstadter) means "to write (a sentence fragment) a first time, and then to write it a second time, but with quotation marks around it" (for example, if we quine "say", we get "say 'say'"). Thus, if we quine "quine", we get "quine 'quine'", so that the sentence "quine 'quine'" is a quine...
In this directory are ten quines I wrote to help me learn python. (One or two of them (X) are not quines; they are deliberately broken for teaching purposes.)
Also, another 8 quines in python that I found on the internet
My quines
