You are very welcome.  I tried to find your quote on page 231 but I'm not sure my book is the same as yours

Better version of the quote...\n\n"When President John F. Kennedy was asked during his run for Presidency if he would accept his party's nomination for Vice President, he responded, "Why should I accept second place when first is available? Once you accept second best, you have a tendency to do so the rest of your life." First place is available to you, seize it."\n\nLike many other quotes it gets changed a bit by the quoter?

If you're qouting Bush directly, after the quote, what you should do is this: (qtd. in. Shaw 1A).  If you quote Shaw and her quote includes Bush's quote, it would simply be: (Shaw 1A).\nFor your in text, it would be as follows, either way:\nShaw, Gwyneth K. "Bush Promises Port Veto." The Baltimore Sun (underlined) 22 Feb. 2006: 1A

I don't know how you'd go about claiming it.

It is wrong to say that something is "an inspiration to my art" \nArt is not a human being and therefore cannot feel inspired .\n\nOnly you and me can be inspired by something.\n\nSo, you can rephrase the statement by saying something like :\n\n"This is a real inspiration to me and it helps me in my art so much."\n\n Or " I was inspired by this as I was drawing / painting "\n\nHope it helps.

I Made A Difference in the Life of A Child\n"A hundred years from now, it will not matter what\nmy bank account was, the sort of house I lived in, or the\nkind of clothes I wore. But the world may be a different place\nbecause I made a difference in the life of a child."\n\nI searched various sites, but it appears to be by "Anonymous" since everyone seems at liberty to use it anywhere.

Aaaa ... ok. Now I see the fine print. I was going to suggest you tweak your quote to something like, "to be a great speaker, you really need ideas." Maybe you can rework it in a clever way to include both ideas.

What the guy above me said...or if they are primary source documents. Those are the best sources for material on a research essay. Who better to quote than the actual person who said it?

Did you try searching for a Quote Finder, http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient-ff&ie=UTF-8&rls=GGGL,GGGL:2005-09,GGGL:en&q=quote+finder no promises because I didn't try any of them.

I looked at your question and since I love quotations (and remember Eddie Cantor), I thought I'd give a try to find the source.  Good grief.  A zillion quotation sites, and nary a source.  I did come up with another place for you, though - The Eddie Cantor Appreciation Society (with a site currently visited by over 99,000 whoopee makers) has an email address (info@EddieCantor.com).  If I were you I'd ask them, as some fans probably know dialogue by heart.  Good luck, and sorry I wasn't able to be more precise.

Yes, I would consider your example correct, unless the quote really did require an exclamation point, which it might from the tone.  I think you will find, however, that the rules are changing.  I was always taught that punctuation goes inside the quote marks (the way you did it).  But I have been working as a legal secretary for many a long year, and it's surprising how many well-educated lawyers INSIST on putting it outside the quote marks.  The argument, which makes a certain amount of sense, is that only punctuation which would have been a part of the original sentence which was quoted when it was first written should be inside, and that punctuation which is there because there is more to the sentence which includes the quote should go outside.  Of course, there is a subtle distinction from quoting an actual person and writing conversation in a fiction story.  I'm willing to bet most editors these days would accept either way.\n\nThe other thing I learned back (way, way back!) when I was young is that whenever a second person starts to speak, you start a new paragraph.  I think the idea is to help the reader figure out who is speaking without having to say "he said" or "she said" all the time.  However, I note that many books do not do that if they are describing a rapid-fire exchange of just a few words by two or more characters, because it would result in a lot of very short paragraphs, one line or maybe even just one word.  People no longer expect it.  I suppose they are willing to sort out who said what from context, which is usually but not always possible.

A personal hero of mine, Thomas Jefferson. And I think the "illegal" part of their title shows that the quote doesn't apply to them.
