• @UDScott: Thanks, I will. I see that I did "source" in the form of external links, but not inline citations. I think I based it off of Yogi Berra, which also has no inline citations. Is that the proper format for Wikiquote articles? Muboshgu (talk) 14:17, 21 June 2018 (UTC)

I think you'll find that the Yogi Berra page now does have correct sourcing for each quote - and the same should be done for this person as well. Thanks. ~ UDScott (talk) 14:32, 21 June 2018 (UTC)

I'll make sure that it does before I recreate. Thanks again. Muboshgu (talk) 15:49, 21 June 2018 (UTC)
