B--they believed God could fill you with his grace, which sometimes could lead to "quaking", as though you were shivering with anticipation of something good. They didn't have ministers in the usual sense, because they believed God gave understanding to all believers.

From the wiki;
"The various branches have widely divergent beliefs and practices, but the central concept to many Friends may be the "Inner Light" or "that of God within" each of us. Accordingly, individual Quakers may develop individual religious beliefs arising from individual conscience and revelation coming from "God within;" further, Quakers are obligated to live by such individual religious beliefs and inner revelations."

Therefore, it must be answer B.
