Both hooks look good from a technical point of view. My personal preference would be the first one - I always feel quotes should carry the citation with them, so if anyone feels the second is more interesting, then maybe it should be reworded slightly? @HistoryofIran and Onegreatjoke:, do you have any thoughts on this - or would you rather the first hook was used?
