How to Randomly Print a Quote From a Text File When User Types a Command on Main Menu

[menator01]

These are the same and either is fine to use.

from random import choice
import random

alist = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9]
atuple = ['a','b','c','d','e']

print(f'import random module as whole -> {random.choice(alist)}')
print(f'import just the choice function - > {choice(atuple)}')

I looked at the jython website and it only supports python 2. Most python users will have python 3. The code I provided may not work.

output

Output:
import random module as whole -> 8
import just the choice function - > e

I have not used jython so, I probably will not be much help with your code.

I assumed that where your code says "with open('quote.txt', 'r') as quotes:" I am supposed to replace "quote.txt" with the actual name of the text file Yes you will need to replace with the actual text file you are using

In other words, the "while True:" part is right below the "with open('quote.txt', 'r')" with the same indentation.

Again without seeing relevant code it's hard to help. You may not even need the while loop.
