Merari Gonzalez quotes are used when adding attributes to your tags such as below.

<img class="test-class" src="test.jpg" alt="This is alt info" width="800" height="600">

For the challenge you are working on there is no need to add a class, the css to change the text color to purple needs to be added to your styles.css "You can remove class= property >" from your html. 

h1{
  color: purple;  
}
