Best way to remeber quotes

I've attempted cramming quotes before a SAC but I tend to forget quotes during the SAC.

I'm aware that regular essays while integrating quotes are a good method but it is not possible to include every quote into essays.

What are some effective methods to remember quotes?

Yeah - remember them 'in context' of actual ideas/arguments.

I second both of the above; I found that the best way to 'know' (rather than rote memorising) quotes was to use them in every essay that I wrote on a specific text. That way, instead of having to memorise a sole quote, you associate it with an idea. That way, when you're planning your essay in the exam you'll be able to recall that quote when you revisit that idea.

Yup. Using quotes in practice essays will definitely help you out in remembering them. :)

Remember, quotes aren't intended to 'be' your analysis. Your analysis comes from comprehension and articulation of thematic identities in the form of setting, characters, structure, etc which support the arguments that in turn support your thesis. Quotes are the final rung of evidence that you use, to support analysis of arguments. So every quote that you observe when reading/studying the text should be done so in the perspective of an argument/element of the text.
