After reading some of your responses though, I worry that I might not have the rulebook memorized quite well enough although I have read through the rule and case books cover to cover several times.
Thanks for the advice to a real newbie!

If it is "quoted", it is probably not memorized. However, many can come really close to rule book wording just from familiarity. But full, word-by-word quotes are going to be copied from the book.
