5. Quotation Citations:
For each quotation, you need to give credit to the author as it is not your own work.
Each quote should be in the following format:
Lead (give context) then punctuate (: OR ,)
Quote in quotation marks
single quotation marks if someone is speaking within a quote. Example: “He exclaimed, ‘It’s on fire’” (43).
Citation in parenthesis - author’s last name and page # (name #).
punctuation does not go inside the quote, it goes after the last bracket
The only exceptions are ! and ? because they change how the text is read

6. Quotation Citation Examples
Example 1: Statement Lead (use :)
Uncle Axel discusses the value of man with David: “You start asking yourself: well, what real evidence have we got about the true image?” (Wyndham 63).
Example 2: Speaking Lead (use ,)
David explains the purpose of the tribulation when he argues, “mankind – that was us, in civilized parts – was in the process of climbing back into grace; we were following a faint and difficult trail which led up to the peaks from which we had fallen” (Wyndham 40).

7. Quotation Leads Examples
A strong lead into the quotation ties to the criteria point and provides context of the quotation.
Weak lead:
This is shown in the following quotation: “quote”
(vague, lacks interesting diction, no context provided)
Good lead:
David learns of Petra’s telepathic abilities when: “quote”
(needs greater detail and specificity)
Strong lead:
David rescues Petra when she sends a strong telepathic signal after nearly drowning: “quote”
(it is specific, provided context and can be tied to the point easily)
