Statistics are important. They give your essay an authoritative outlook, if u know what i mean. But it doesnt mean you should memorize tables and tables of statistics. For example, in my essay on 'FDI in Pak', i mentioned how much FDI we received last year, how much are we expecting next year and stuff.
Yes, u should go for literary essays if you think you r good at it. Quotations are not important. It's almost impossible to have a relevant quotation ready in support of another. In literary essays, one has to be adept at presenting one's thoughts in a beautiful manner. Give examples in support of your stand. Cover the pros and cons and lead the reader to your conclusion in a logical manner.
Literary or quotational essays require a literary bent. Not every one is good at attempting'em. If you have that orientation, i say, go for it.
