title: INSERT vs INSERT INTO
body: <p>I have been working with T-SQL in MS SQL for some time now and somehow whenever I have to insert data into a table I tend to use syntax:</p>
  
  <pre><code>INSERT INTO myTable &lt;something here&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I understand that keyword <code>INTO</code> is optional here and I do not have to use it but somehow it grew into habit in my case.</p>
  
  <p>My question is: </p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>Are there any implications of using <code>INSERT</code> syntax versus <code>INSERT INTO</code>?</li>
  <li>Which one complies fully with the standard?</li>
  <li>Are they both valid in other implementations of SQL standard?</li>
  </ul>
