I am using a random quote script. In each quote I use I would like to give credit to the author. How do I break up the text string so the author is always on the last line?
Example:
“The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent full of doubt. —Betrand Russell”
I would like to have the author on the last line:
“The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent full of doubt.
