You are demonstrating why the quote needs to be quoted completely, instead of taken out of context in order to make a point. But you didn't answer my question - did you really think that I was trying to further make the point, of the quote, when I bolded and enlarged the font.

When one believes their point is made more relevant because of how passionately they increase the font and bolding, the point is already lost.
