newbie Q: quote within a sig

I'd like to quote something someone said in a thread as my signature. How do I include the linked quote back to the original thread in my signature?

Go to the original comment, click on the "QUOTE" button at the bottom, Highlight and right click/copy the text there. Then, go to the "User CP" option in the second row top menu above to change your sig, and paste the text you copied into your sig.

Aww shucks.

(You can't see it, but when I saw it was my post you wanted to quote, well, my cheeks are usually a bit lighter than this.)

hehe =)

Your words I quoted really speak to me at this point in my life. It seemed worthy and good to make it so they could be seen as a reminder to me and everyone here. Wise words indeed, Mr. Ben *applause for you*

I also love your "Lead me not into temptation..." quote =)

Well, the comment about risk was my own rephrasing of ideas I've read before from different sources. But I've worded it in a way that makes it meaningful to me, so if that works for you I am glad.

The temptation line was an anonymous quote I read somewhere, but it fits my philosophy perfectly.
