I'm in 11th grade in a New Zealand high school, and for my end of year exam I'm planning on using a quote from the book I have chosen which contains the word "f\*ckin". This is a quote which is important and relevant to my argument. How should I go about using this quote? Should I censor the word?

Apologies if this is not the right place for this question, but I wasn't sure where to ask.

Thank you.
