I have made this [letter] longer, because I have not had the time to make it shorter. Blaise Pascal (1623 - 1662), "Lettres provinciales", letter 16, 1657


 * From www.grammarbook.com: **

**Rule 6**. __Quotation marks__ are used for components, such as
 * chapter titles in a book,
 * individual episodes of a TV series,
 * songs from a Broadway show or a music album,
 * titles of articles or essays in print or online,
 * shorter works such as short stories and poems.

It is customary in American publishing to put the title of an entire composition in italics. Put the title of a short work—one that is or could be part of a larger undertaking—in quotation marks.

A "composition" is a creative, journalistic, or scholarly enterprise that is whole, complex, a thing unto itself. This includes books, movies, plays, TV shows, newspapers, magazines, websites, music albums, operas, musical theater, paintings, sculptures, and other works of art.

Example: Richard Burton performed the song "Camelot" in the 1960 Broadway musical Camelot.

Although the word is the same, "Camelot" the song takes quotation marks because it's part of a larger work—namely, a full-length show called Camelot.
