Can I have quotations like with fancychapters but without a chapter? I need several quotations for the feedbacks page.

    The short answer is yes. Just look up the code for fancychapters (I assume it is a package) and copy/modify. – John Kormylo Dec 25 '20 at 16:27
  • Depending on the output you want to achive, you might be interested in the \blockquote command from the csquotes package. – leandriis Dec 25 '20 at 17:17

I know the fancychap package, which doesn't show quotes, but I din't know fancychapters. However, you might find the epigraph package useful which was planned for placing quotations aka epigraphs near sectional divisions, or just to produce a list of them.

% quotesprob.tex  SE 576303
\documentclass{book}
\usepackage{epigraph}

\begin{document}


\chapter{First}
\epigraphhead[60pt]
  {\epigraph{Epigraph before chapter}{Anonymous}}
\epigraph{The whole is more than the sum of the parts}%
         {\textit{Metaphysica} \ Aristotle}


Now for a list of epigraphs.


\begin{epigraphs}
\qitem{Example is the school of mankind, and they will learn at no other}%
      {\textit{Letters on a Regicide Peace} \ \textsc{Edmund Burke}}
\qitem{And now for something completely different.}{Monty Python}
\end{epigraphs}


\end{document}
