Pick a quote by splicing words I said?

Ellipses are used in quotes to remove irrelevant parts without changing the meaning of the sentence. Makes it take less time to quote someone

Apparently you're unfamiliar with basic concepts of the language we're using here

You typically wrap those ellipses in square brackets when making such a change. In fact, you do so with any editorial changes to a quote to make things more clear.

For example, if Mike was quoted about the war in Ukraine as saying “I just think this whole thing is silly, they should stop” you could alter the quote as such: Mike said “I just think […] [Russia] should stop.”
