Indepedent Clause
In a complex sentence can a quote be an independent clause? Example: Now that I'm older I realize what he meant was, "when you join my company you better not make me look bad."
Could, "when you join my company you better not make me look bad." be an independent clause this in this sentence?
Could, "when you join my company you better not make me look bad." be an independent clause this in this sentence?
