Answer:

Do you agree with Aristotle’s quote, "We make war that we may live in peace"?

Explanation:

Out of the four options provided, the correct punctuation is :

Do you agree with Aristotle’s quote, "We make war that we may live in peace"?

The sentence is asking a question about whether one agrees with Aristotle's quote. The quotation "We make war that we may live in peace" is also part of the question so it will be included in it, and positioned before the "?". So, the question mark has to be at the end of the sentence but not inside the inverted commas.

The other options' positioning of the various punctuation marks (: and ? in option 1, ? in option 2 and ? and . in option 3) are incorrect.

Do you agree with Aristotle’s quote: "We make war that we may live in peace?”

Do you agree with Aristotle’s quote, "We make war that we may live in peace?”

Do you agree with Aristotle’s quote? "We make war that we may live in peace.”
