also, there's a button that says "quote" in the top right corner of every post (at least on the theme I use, subsilver), if you press that button, it will make a reply with that post's full text quoted in it, and then you can just delete whatever parts you don't need.

Amid the tornadoed Atlantic of my being, do I myself still forever centrally disport in mute calm; and while ponderous planets of unwaning woe revolve round me, deep down and deep inland there I still bathe me in eternal mildness of joy.
