How to achieve the whole paragraph on the same page in quote environment?

Question

How can I make the paragraphs in the quote environment appear on the same page?

In this example I would like the paragraph Nula malesuada... to start on the next page:

EMV:

% !TeX program = lualatex
\documentclass[ebook,11pt,twoside,openright]{memoir}
\usepackage[no-math]{fontspec}
\usepackage{polyglossia}
\usepackage{csquotes} 
\usepackage{lipsum} 
\setdefaultlanguage{spanish}
\begin{document}
    \lipsum[1-2]
    \begin{quote}

        \lipsum[3]
    \end{quote}

\end{document}

Being able to split across pages is a "feature" of the quote environment. You could center a minipage if you want to make it unbreakable. — John Kormylo, Oct 20 '21 at 03:23

The latex command \samepage will set \interlinepenalty and related penalties to 10000 to prevent page breaking within paragraphs (it may still break between paragraphs)

\documentclass[ebook,11pt,twoside,openright]{memoir}
\usepackage[no-math]{fontspec}
\usepackage{polyglossia}
\usepackage{csquotes} 
\usepackage{lipsum} 
\setdefaultlanguage{spanish}
\AddToHook{env/quote/begin}{\samepage }
\begin{document}
    \lipsum[1-2]
    \begin{quote}

        \lipsum[3]
    \end{quote}

\end{document}

For older LaTeX releases without the hook system you could add \samepage to quote for example by

 \let\oldquote\quote \renewcommand\quote{\oldquote\samepage}

I'm having the error: Undefined control sequence \AddToHook. – A. Cedano Oct 19 '21 at 17:42
ah your latex is too old, just use \begin{quote}\samepage the hook is just a way of adding it there automatically @A.Cedano – David Carlisle Oct 19 '21 at 17:44
So I have to add this manually \begin{quote}\samepage every time I start a quote environment? Would there be any way to automate it in my old version of Latex? – A. Cedano Oct 19 '21 at 18:15
@A.Cedano \let\oldquote\quote \renewcommand\quote{\oldquote\samepage} – David Carlisle Oct 19 '21 at 18:39
It's working fine. Thanks a lot. I'm working with Ubuntu 18, then I have the versión TeX 3.14159265 (TeX Live 2017/Debian) – A. Cedano Oct 19 '21 at 19:04
@A.Cedano tl 2017, ah 4 years back, OK. – David Carlisle Oct 19 '21 at 19:09
In which version was added \AddToHook? – A. Cedano Oct 19 '21 at 19:11
the autumn 2020 release – David Carlisle Oct 19 '21 at 19:44
@DavidCarlisle -- It would be a friendly gesture to add the "older" information to your answer. – barbara beeton Oct 19 '21 at 20:43
@barbarabeeton done:-) – David Carlisle Oct 19 '21 at 21:02
@DavidCarlisle -- Thank you. Let's hope there aren't too many complaints about excess vertical space. – barbara beeton Oct 19 '21 at 21:33
