This is proving a much more difficult challenge than I thought it would be.
I looked up both of those books, but I still wasn't able to find any specific examples. I also rephrased my Google question about a dozen different ways, and still I found nothing.
I'll move on to an example where my protagonist is reading notes written inside of the Bible. I'll use quotes this time, but doing so i ...

If the passage is four lines or longer, it gets a block quote.
Ah, thank you. Well, that saves me some embarrassment.

I see nothing but essay style information. Once again, Google fails me. :|
Can you (or someone else reading this) point to an example?

I haven't been to this forum for a while, so I hope I'm posting this in the right place. I have a pretty simple grammar question that I simply cannot find the answer to on Google.
When a character in a work of fiction reads a book out loud, are the words they read in italics within quotation marks? I'm writing a story about a fantasy character who discovers a real-world Bible. Here is an excerp ...

My wife was asking this question and I have utterly failed at finding the answer via Google, so now I am resorting to crowdsourcing.
What is the most mixed dog--that is, what is the dog with the largest number of breeds mixed in it? Is there a picture as to what the most heavily mixed dog on record looks like? Is there even any sort of statistical data on this sort of thing?
Let me know if a ...

I'm looking to purchase two desktop PCs--not just one. I was hoping to find some kind of discount considering I'm buying two, but I can't seem to find anything searching myself.
Can anyone help me find some kind of deal where I get a discount for buying two computers instead of one?
Thank you.
EDIT: Problem solved. Please do not reply.

I am having a surprising amount of difficulty finding this online. Google searches lead me to an endless abyss of outdated threads and irrelevant product pages.
The question is simple: Where can I find the least expensive Blu-ray player capable of playing both Netflix Instant and Hulu? Can anyone out there help me?

I have to admit, that rave music was jammin'. It makes me want to drop some acid.

Easily the Wii. It can play all the Nintendo classics from the NES to the Gamecube. The Wii games themselves are also quite fun--and perfectly brief for someone like me who doesn't have hours upon hours to devote to gaming. There's also the added benefit of the exercise you can get out of the more active games. And when I don't feel like gaming, there's Netflix on the Wii.
In short, the Wii rul ...

Spending months bartering in the marketplace to earn enough gold to buy an angelic sash. Working hard to earn what you desire is immensely satisfying.

What, pray tell, is "lombrarda"?
In any case, to answer your question, my favorite character is Lord Voldemort because you have to admire the guy's determination.
Best magic? Probably engorgio. It's essentially a ticket to as much money as you could ever want if you cast it on something valuable like gold. You could even solve world hunger with a spell like that.
