That's ok but I may stop now, as it appears someone is editing these quotes without marking them as done.

#203 done by someone.

Clare O'Beara | 1119 comments Yep, I guess someone else found them the way I did. Well, as long as they get cleaned it's fine. I will post any more I find, but I don't want to waste your time.

I think it is more likely they responded to this thread but either forgot or didn't want to put down that they had done so. First time I have struck this on editing quotes, but it has happened in other long running threads.

I would make a note of any junk quotes you find, but don't post them until one of the librarians in this thread has checked #204-#208. But it's totally up to you! :)

ezekiel (cherriesofvenus) | 1 comments Hello, good day everyone.

May I request for help in this particular quote from Gail Dines' book?

The number 3 should be a superscript since it is a footnote. I must have not noticed it when I posted the quote.

Here is the link to the quote: https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/1181...

Clare O'Beara | 1119 comments This looks like an entire poem and two authors are named as one. There is no author page so this looks spurious.

There's more. Someone has been inputting a lot of this book sentence by sentence. I suggest it could be a distressing read. Not sure how much of these are actually quotable quotes.
