“Lets Roll”

On September 11, 2001 United Flight 93 took off from Newark International Airport in New Jersey with 38 passengers and a crew of 7. While in flight, the plane was hijacked by terrorists. Passengers on board knew about the other hijacked planes and took action. “Lets Roll” was their call to action. The passengers over powered the terrorists and the plane crashed in Shanksvillle, Pennsylvania killing all on board. It was believed that the plane was headed towards another target location in Washington D.C.

The penultimate line is in noticeably smaller font to accommodate its length, and so is the centered title for some reason. Most of the text is left-justified but the last three lines are centered, fit and right-aligned, respectively. The quote marks are not rounded, and there are at least three grammar mistakes in the short text.
