They Say I Say

After reading the article I learned a main point is to not summarize someone but quote their exact words because this gives a tremendous amount of credibility to your paper and keeps is fair and accurate. Another main point I got from this chapter was that authors assume that quotes can speak for themselves but in reality they next text surrounding them so the reader can understand the importance of that quote. Finally, the last main point I found really important was choosing a quote that fits your paper/topic because you don't want to just throw in a quote for the sake of having one. You want it to relate to what your talking about not be misleading.
