I want to put a quote at the very beginning of my essay. How do I go about doing that? Should it be the same or a smaller font than the rest of my essay?
I'm planning on putting the quote, then starting a new paragraph to begin the actual essay. Should I center it? Skip how many lines between it and my first paragraph? My entire essay is double-spaced.
Thanks for any help in advance.

I'd use the same font for the quotation, but of course enclose it in quotation marks. No additional spacing is needed.

Oh, wait- should I center it?
Answered by Writeacher
How long is the quotation? How many sentences?

Two sentences.

Then follow Ms. Sue's directions above -- and don't center it.
