Embedded Quotations


 Embedded Quotations

I don’t have my copy of F451 with me at home, so I’m making up the quotes.

As part of the sentence...

One of the most important quotes is when Clarisse says to Guy, “Are you happy?” (pg. 94).

With a colon...

Guy shows his frustration with the talking advertisement for Denham’s Dentrifice: “I really want to memorize this line from Ecclesiastes, but I can’t concentrate”  (pg. 483).

When there’s dialogue within a quotation from the story...

The rift in the relationship between Mildred and Guy is clearly illustrated when the two are at home talking. “As Guy walked into the room, Mildred’s vacant stare frightened him. ‘All I care about now is my family. You mean nothing to me‘ “ (p. 73).
