Have you come across the while loop?

It looks like this:

while <some condition>:
     do stuff here

So for your program it should look something like:

while True:  # loop forever
     answer = raw_input(....
     if answer = 'quit':
        break   # exits the loop
     elif answer = ....
        as before

If while loops are new to you then you will find more info in
the Loops topic of my tutorial (see .sig).
