I didn't mean to imply that you should have written "I think that should be titled in your first sentence". The ambiguity would be obvious. To avoid ambiguity, and use correct English, would require the sentence to be re-worded.
Your final sentence contains three surplus words at its end. you can't have "quotations" that have been said at any time other than "in the past".
Also quotation marks should be used for quotations. I believe you wanted to say they should not be used only for quotations.
