The Power of Brainstorming

Quotations - MLA 8th edition

How to Quote Complete Sentences

Step 1: Introduce the person or source you are quoting with an introductory phrase.

  • With an author: According to [Author's full name], . . . 
  • With no author: According to the article, ["Title of the Article'] . . . 

 

Step 2: Put quotes around the whole sentence. Check that you copied the exact words from the source. 

  • "This is my quote"

 

Step 3: For page numbers, put the page number between parentheses. Put a period at the end.

  • "This is my quote" (2). 

 

Example:

  1. With an author: According to Elizabeth Lee, "Many social robots have faces with blinking eyes and moving mouths and different expressions" (1). 
  2. With no author: According to "Issues in Values and Freedoms," "Experts estimate that between 10 and 25 percent of the slaves died on the journey" (2).
