Is there a website that you can put a quote in and it will tell you the page number
I’ve been finding a lot of good quotes on the internet and I can’t find them in a huge book so I need a website that can tell me where to find each quote
Because page numbers can be based on so many factors, you need to get a specific edition to pinpoint page number OR download it on like a kindle and do a search.
Otherwise, like in proper citations, you list the edition of the book before page number because the page number is only consistent in the same exact printing.
You could search scanned book pdfs as well. But you’ll need something created from a physical representation of the book.

That’s the nice thing about spending time with the classics in the public domain. Finding free ebook downloads is easy, then it’s another quick text search to find a text string.
