I am quoting Jeffrey Jerome Cohen, who is in turn quoting Rene Girard. Here is the sentence in question that I am quoting:

Monsters are never created ex nihilo, but through a process of fragmentation and recombination in which elements are extracted "from various forms" (including -- indeed, especially -- marginalized social groups) and then assembled as the monster, "which can then claim an independent identity."

Question One. What should my in-text citation look like after this quote? I have been using an author-page format, like so:

Furthermore, he "sprouts two heads" (Cohen 11).

Question Two. What should I do f I want to quote only Girard's parts from Cohen but don't have access to Girard's original text?
