Can anyone help me with the following Challenge task? I have already declared 'quotes' property in the header file.

Now it's time to display a quote from our 'quotes' array in the 'quoteLabel'. Assign the second item from the 'quotes' array to the text property of the 'quoteLabel'. Hint: use the 'objectAtIndex' method.

#import "THViewController.h"

@implementation THViewController

- (void)viewDidLoad {
    [super viewDidLoad];

    // Add your code below! 
    // Remember the array property is called 'quotes'
    // And the label property is called 'quoteLabel'
self.quotes = [[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects:@"Haters gonna hate",@"Life is simple,not easy",@"Winners never quit,quitters never win",nil];

self.quoteLabel.text = [quotes objectAtIndex:1];    

}

@end```

Try adding self.quoteLabel.text = [self.quotes objectAtIndex:1];

Adding "self" should do the trick.
