Practicing Incorporating a Quotation

While reading A.O. Scott's review of the movie Lincoln, he uses a lot of style in his writing. Scott writes, "A flock of first-rate character actors parades by in the heavy woolen plumage of the past." Scott uses this figurative language to introduce a metaphor that relates the characters to birds.


The quote that I chose is from the paragraph that I paraphrased. While trying to paraphrase it I had difficulty rewording it, so I thought it would be a good quote to put in directly instead of trying to put it in my own words.
