Do you think it's a wise idea to start off with a quote? If the quote is not in relation to the topic then it will be unrelated. And also you should state the source you got it from i.e. Shirly Geok-lin Lim

Heya, i'm also doing text 7, a good point to make about this text is that the physical journey needs to include an inner journey. Just find the quote that relates to this in the text.

I strongly suggest for you not to quote. Try and paraphrase. Quoting generally loses marks! :rolleyes:
Quoting and paraphrasing are perfectly accepted in an essay, as long as you know when to use it correctly.

Nothing wrong with quote a large number of students do both quoting and paraphrasing as long as you don't miss quote or use it incorrectly.
