I think you'd have to explicitly copy what you typed; where you
typed it; what you got back; and what you want it to do. Vim
doesn't have a ":sed" command. Possibilities are that you want
to issue

:e quote.txt
:g/Too/s//Too much/|.w >> a.txt

or perhaps

:e quote.txt
:w !sed 's/Too/Too much/;w a.txt'

or possibly

:! sed 's/Too/Too much/' quote.txt >>a.txt

(that last one is the same as just executing that command on the
command-line)

which you can read about at

:help :w_c
:h :w_a

If you give a clearer picture of what you want to do (and why you
want to bring sed into the picture instead of doing everything in
vim), other solutions might manifest.
