Paraphrases & Quotes ParaphrasesQuotes Paraphrases are specific text-based details that you rephrase (with and without the original words). Quotes are specific text-based details you copy word-for-word from the text and put quotation marks around them to signify they are exact matches. Do you want to summarize a paragraph or a page? Paraphrase it. Does the perfect, concise wording already exist? Quote it. (Famous lines are highly quotable too.) Example: Oberon and Titania are jealous of each other’s influence with Theseus and Hyppolyta and also argue over a changeling boy (Shakespeare 39, 41). Example: The conflict is clear when Lysander says, “The course of true love never did run smooth” (Shakespeare 15). Non-example: In Act II scene I, Oberon argues with his wife (Shakespeare 39). It’s too vague. Non-example: Titania says, “That they have overborne their continents” (Shakespeare 41). It’s not enough detail to stand alone.
