quoteButton text

I am doing exactly what everyone says to do online but my code is not working. It says I'm not setting the text property, even though I clearly am. Could somebody help me? Thanks in advance.

ViewController.h 
#import "UIViewController.h"
#import "UILabel.h"


@interface ViewController: UIViewController

@property (strong, nonatomic) IBOutlet UILabel *quoteLabel;

- (IBAction)quoteButtonPressed;

@end
ViewController.m 
#import "ViewController.h"

@implementation ViewController

- (void)viewDidLoad {
    [super viewDidLoad];
    // Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.


}

- (void)didReceiveMemoryWarning {
    [super didReceiveMemoryWarning];
    // Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}

- (IBAction)quoteButtonPressed {

    //Add your code below!
  //self.quoteLabel.text = @"A stitch in time saves nine.";
  quoteLabel.text = @"A stitch in time saves nine."

@end
