When you do this, keep the quote as short as you can and still make your point. Be careful not to rely too heavily on quoted material. Remember, the purpose of research is to make an original argument, and not to just pull together big blocks of quotes.
I like this because I am using this helpful information in my writing and research class while writing my research essay. I am trying not to rely on quotes but only paraphrase what I am reading into my own worlds, while still give the author credit when needed.
