How many quotes should I learn for my essays in the exam?

It is wise to learn more than is needed. However, this doesn't mean overload your brain with quotation. If you're aiming to write three paragraphs per essay then that means you will want to include three quotations, one per paragraph. I would therefore suggest learning 5-6 quotes so that you can tailor your quotes and essay structure to the specific question.
