Question

are te hquotations in the right place.

"The only question," he says, "is how much money your willing to spend. We're talking about hundreds of millions of dollars."

I put in the quotes but I am a little confused if you can have two sentences inside one quote.

You put the quotation marks and commas in correctly.

One error, though -- it's "you're" not "your" -- OK? (you're = you are)

=)

Answer 1

Yes, you can have multiple sentences inside a single quotation if they are part of the same continuous thought or speech. In this case, the quotation consists of two sentences that are part of a conversation. It is common to use commas to separate the quoted sentences to indicate a pause in speech.
