<p>I talk a lot about provisional self esteem and I want to reference John Gatto and Richard Rodriguez's in regards to my education but I'm not sure if thats done or if it would make a very personal essay seem choppy....</p>
<p>help:/</p>
<p>I think it could be good, in moderation.</p>
<p>I would say 1-2 quotes max.</p>
<p>Also, never start a sentence out with a quote.</p>
<p>I used one I suppose it depends on how you introduce it. My quote was personal, meaning someone important to me always uses it, and how it related to what I have done. Perhaps the significance without going off on a tangent if you kwim?</p>
<p>I’m not actually using quotes exactly, just their definitions to help elaborate</p>
