static string quote

Please help. I'm getting an error on line 8.

Program.cs 
using System;

class Program
{

    static string Quote(string sentence)
    {
        return "\"" + phrase + "\""

    }

    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        // Quote by Maya Angelou.
        Console.WriteLine(Quote("When you learn, teach. When you get, give."));
        // Quote by Benjamin Franklin.
        Console.WriteLine(Quote("No gains without pains."));
    }

}

Hey Sharon, You're using a "phrase" variable in Quote method. What type is ? Try to figure out this and you solve the problem. I hope you handle it quickly because there is simple mistake.

Good luck ;)
