    Really?

    Is this now GrammarProfs?

    Perhaps HomeworkProfs?

    Or possibly "GoogleSomethingForMeProfs"

    Since the moderators haven't stepped in here,

    any quotation you make needs to be backed up by the author and title plus a page number - this should be linked to a bibliography at the back of the essay where publishers details are given. If the following quote is used from the same book, you can mention the page number of this quote. If you want to be really posh, use the form "ibid" (from the latin ibidem) and the page number and it can link to the same point in your bibliography.
