Plinie, the Roman naturalist records it as "a very ferocious beast, similar in the rest of its body to a horse, with the head of a deer, the feet of an elephant, the tail of a boar, a deep, bellowing voice, and a single black horn, two cubits in length, standing out in the middle of its forehead."
2) Unicorns are real?
* True
- False
3) What shade of white is this unicorn?
- Marshmallow
* Moon glow
- Egg shell

Then, parse it into a json file using quiz_questions.py...
python quiz_questions.py unicorns.quiz
This produces a formatted json file like this...
{
"questions": [
{
"answers": [
"Loch Ness Monster",
"Centaur",
"Unicorn",
"Mermaid"
],
"correct": {
"index": 2,
"text": "The unicorn is a mythical creature. Strong, wild, and fierce, it was impossible to tame by man. Plinie, the Roman naturalist records it as \"a very ferocious beast, similar in the rest of its body to a horse, with the head of a deer, the feet of an elephant, the tail of a boar, a deep, bellowing voice, and a single black horn, two cubits in length, standing out in the middle of its forehead.\""
