Extra Word Sudoku (Palindrome Sudoku!) Puzzles for Tuesday, 4/23/2024

Amore, Roma.

Today's date, and actually all the dates between Saturday 4/20/24 and Monday, 4/29/24, are palindromes: Written with two digits for the year, the dates are the same forward or backward: 4/20/24; 4/29/24; etc.

During these ten days, I will offer you extra puzzle sets spelling out word palindromes—statements reading the same forward and backward (spelled out by solving Sudoku puzzles, of course). Since the second half of the quote is the first half backward, you'll have to fill that in on your own.
