Thank you.

My confusion came from looking into other sources where for tabulated
list-mode they do something like:

                 ,(if (display-mouse-p)
                      (propertize name
                                  'font-lock-face 'bookmark-menu-bookmark
                                  'mouse-face 'highlight
                                  'follow-link t
                                  'help-echo "mouse-2: go to this
                      bookmark in other wi


but now is clear that I cannot use quotes in the same way.
