Using Quotations

Using QuotationsRemember these points when selecting and integrating quotations in your essay.

MAINTAIN A SMOOTH SENTENCE STYLEIt is rarely effective to use an entire quoted sentence. Long quotations tend to put your reader to sleep. Your prose is far more interesting and important. So use part of an effective quotation as part of one of your sentences.

MAINTAIN A SMOOTH SENTENCE STYLEBoring Example: According to Stoll, Television and computing make us more passiveand passivity feeds into shyness (395).Better Example: Unfortunately, those who are already shy may compound their problem further as [t]elevision and computing make us more passiveand passivity feeds into shyness (Stoll 395).

MLA CitationsAfter the sentence that contains the quotation, you should have a space, parentheses, the authors last name, the page number, parentheses, and a period. Unfortunately, those who are already shy may compound their problem further as [t]elevision and computing make us more passiveand passivity feeds into shyness

(Stoll395).

CitationsIf you used the authors name to introduce the quotation, you should only put the page number in the citation. Stoll points out that those who are already shy may compound their problem further as [t]elevision and computing make us more passiveand passivity feeds into shyness (395).

MAINTAIN A SMOOTH SENTENCE STYLEBoring Example: Stoll says, Deep social ties are relationships with frequent contact, deep feelings of involvement, and broad content[they] buffer us from stress and lead to better social interaction (393).Better Example: Stoll suggests we should look for deep social ties because these bonds have frequent contact, deep feelings of involvement, and broad content that help to buffer us from stress and lead to better social interaction (393).

PREPARE FOR AND FOLLOW UP ON A QUOTATIONTo integrate a quotation properly within a paragraph, a good writer usually has(1) One sentence to introduce the quotation,(2) a second sentence that includes the quotation, and (3) at least one sentence to comment on the quotation.

Top piece of bread: at least one sentence to introduce the quotation

Meat: sentence that contains the quotationBottom piece of bread: at least one sentence to explain or comment on the quotation (usually the majority of the paragraph)

PREPARE FOR AND FOLLOW UP ON A QUOTATIONORIGINAL: However, the cloning protocol does not tamper with embryos; it tampers only with unfertilized eggs and adult cells like those we scratch off our arms without a second thought. Only after the fact does an embryo emerge (which could be treated with the utmost respect if one so chooses).SMOOTHLY INTEGRATED QUOTATION: Silver argues that reproductive cloning does not violate human embryos. He asserts that the [cloning protocol] tampers only with unfertilized eggs and adult cells like those we scratch off our arms without a second thought (343). While Silver makes a good point, reproductive cloning is still unnatural. The embryo is created in a laboratory by scientists.

PREPARE FOR AND FOLLOW UP ON A QUOTATIONORIGINAL: Although their genetically determined inclinations may be the same, [the original person and the clone] may choose to follow those inclinations in different ways, or not at all.SMOOTHLY INTEGRATED QUOTATION: The environment in which people are raised affects them more than their genetic code. Though the original person and his clone may share genetically determined inclinations, they have the choice to follow those inclinations in different ways, or not all (Silver 343). Michael Jordan was not born a great basketball player. Though he may have some natural ability, he became great through hard work, perseverance, and practice. Cloning Jordan would not guarantee a great basketball star; on the contrary, the child would have only the raw athletic talent and would lack the circumstances and events that made Jordan who he is.

DROPPED QUOTATIONSA dropped quotation has the same effect on your paper that a blob of bird poop has on your car windshield; its just splattered there with no connection to anything else, and no one knows what to do with it.So, whenever you use a quotation, you must integrate the material into your text.

Avoiding Dropped QuotationsThough many jobs require long hours on a computer everyday, studies have shown that staring at a monitor screen for extended periods of time can cause depression. After following the study group, the psychologists found an average increase in depression by about one percent for every hour spent online per week (Stoll 393). The individual becomes isolated from the outside world and though he or she may be social in an online setting, there is no true human contact.

Avoiding Dropped QuotationsPeople all over the world are making connections with other people online, and though this seems like a positive step in expanding our network of friends, we can forget that these people in the online world are strangers. Online friends cant be depended on for help with tangible favors: small loans, baby-sitting, help with shopping, or advice about jobs and careers (Stoll 394). Though many people find help in online support groups, the members of the group should not be considered true friends. They may be able to offer advice or commiserate with an individual, but they do not offer the human connection one finds with a person face to face.

LEAVING SOMETHING OUT OF A QUOTATION?Ellipses (three dots) indicate that some unnecessary words have been left out of a quotation. When using ellipses, remember: When you quote just a word or short phrase, no ellipsis is necessary. You do not use an ellipsis to indicate that you have left something out of the beginning of a sentence. Missing words from the end or somewhere in the middle of a sentence need to be indicated with ellipses. When you quote parts of more than one sentence, you need four dots instead of three.

CHANGING OR ADDING WORDS WITHIN A QUOTATION? Use brackets to indicate any changes you make to quotations while fitting them into your sentence. See the example under Maintaining a Smooth Sentence Style. Remember, rather than changing more than two items in a short quotation, find a better way of integrating the quotation.
