Personally, I don't like deleting anything at all from a book if I can possibly 
help it. In the case of something like what you are talking about, I would just 
move the quote to the end of the nearest complete sentence.

  This book I am editing has places in which a quote from the text is also put 
in the middle of the page in large font to highlight the quote.  It is placed 
in the middle of sentences in which it isn't included.  The text of the page 
just sort of works around this large quote that is taking up the middle of the 
page.
    

  Should I leave these out as they are also already in the text or should I 
move them to a more logical place and protect them as if they were chapter 
headings?


  Thanks

  Did you know that today is:  World Penguin Day: Always April 25th
  World Penguin Day   is a great opportunity to learn about and appreciate one 
of the few natives of Antarctica.  spend a little time learning about them.... 
a pictorial book or internet site is fun. You can also watch a documentary of 
these cute and popular, grounded birds. 

   is also popular today to tell a penguin joke or two.   



  
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  Origin of Penguin Days: 
  World Penguin Day coincides with the annual northward migration of penguins. 
This happens each year on or around April 25th. Penguins do not fly. Rather, 
they walk, or waddle their way to and from.
