1. Quote Integration

2. WHY use quotes at all? Paraphrasing wouldn't do it justice
*Note, even if you paraphrase, you still must cite!
Example (i.e. literary analysis, book review, etc.)
To provide context for an intensive analysis of a short excerpt (i.e. literary analysis)
Strengthen your argument with credible source

3. What does it need?
For instance Dr. Willy Weather, a weather specialist at Stanford
University, was quoted saying, “Sandy has claimed more lives than
any of us expected, and seems to be continuing to do so” (72).
This is a quote that ends the article. All over New York, people lost
power.
*These facts/quotes, obviously, are completely made up
-No analysis of quote (who cares that it ended the article?)
-No closure of point or transition into next point (“All over New York, people lost power”)

4. What does it need?
"Sandy has claimed more lives than any of us expected, and seems to be continuing to do so,” (72). This quote adds to why Sandy is a bad storm.
-No intro
-Don’t say “this quote,” say what in the quote does what you’re talking about
-not a very strong analysis point

5. What does it need?
''Sandy (this quote ends the article) has claimed more lives than any of us expected, and seems to be continuing to do so,” (72). In fact, not only has it surpassed their expectations, but it has caused more deaths than both Hurricane Irene and Katrina.
-Don’t put context within the quote!! Your intro and concluding sentences are your space for that
-Good analysis sentence (transition word, hooks concrete part of quote to author’s point)
-No intro sentence

9. Tips for Lead In Transition: "in fact," "for example," etc.
If purpose is to enhance credibility (i.e. research), show credibility of source
If from a story (ie literary analysis), explain significant context of situation (whatever is necessary to understand quote)
Tip: Lead In's can be more than one sentence!

10. Helpful Formulas for Analysis/Connecting Sentence
___ and ___ (action word)'s that (point you’re making).
