title: Are quotes around tables and columns in a MySQL query really necessary?
body: <p>I have a short question about mysql query.</p>
  
  <p>What is correct?</p>
  
  <pre><code>SELECT * FROM Persons WHERE Year='1965'
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Or</p>
  
  <pre><code>SELECT * FROM `Persons` WHERE `Year` = '1965'
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Is this a personal choice or is this something what is really wrong?</p>
