I'm working on an essay in English 102, on the novel, Follow the River by Thom. I'm having difficulties with my quotes, I need three mandatory. What I need to know is, can a quote be a part of the book, that was not spoken from a character, and when there is a spoken part from a character, is that a quote within a quote? If anybody knows, please give me an example of how it would be written.....thanks so much.

Des,

A quote can be something that was not spoken by a character or something that was spoken by a character. As long as it's written in the book, you can use it as a quote.

For example:

"The weather was bright and fair and Timothy strode down the road with determination and spirit."

"Help me!", cried Lady Marion. "Save me from marrying the Duke of Nottingham!"

I hope this helps.

Jan
