Any quotation, summary, paraphrase, fact or idea that is not your own must be credited to a source. Each source has its own way of documentation using the MLA works cited format. Quotations need to be placed in context for readers. You can provide this context by naming your source (i.e. stating who said or wrote the quoted words) in the body of your sentence. Tis method is commonly referred to as an in-text citation or in-text frame. Source: http://www.mla-format-works-cited.com/ In-text citations separate quoted material from your own writing in addition to quotation marks. You will also notice the separation between your ideas and another's can be heard when your sentence is read aloud. Without this context or in-text frame, quotations are sometimes called disembodied or ghost quotes.
