  1. Quote Integration

  2. How do I “put quotes in”? • Present a reason for the quote. • Give the context of the quote. AND/OR Use an introductory phrase. (optional) • Intro punctuation. • The actual quote. • Citation, then end punctuation. • Analysis: what does this show or prove?

  3. Example 1 The narrator points out this connection between the letters and men when he asks: “Dead letters! does it not sound like dead men?” (Melville 352).The narrator discusses the path of life that the dead letters have and helps the reader to understand that humans are no different from the letters.

  4. Example 2 Iago discusses his malice towards Othello when he says: “I follow [Othello] to serve my turn upon him” (1.1.42). Iago does not simply dislike Othello; he seeks intense retribution for Othello’s promotion of Cassio.

  5. Example 3 Melville ties together his unconventional proposal as to the meaning of life with the narrator’s comment: “Ah, Bartelby! Ah, humanity!” (352). This expresses the narrator’s final realization that there is no difference between Bartelby and any other person.

  6. Example 4 At the exposition, he speaks of a great compromise between the races: “In all things that are purely social we can be as separate as the fingers, yet one as the hand in all things essential to mutual progress” (Washington 596). His proposal was for whites to allow blacks economic freedom in order that blacks may be able to provide for themselves and also aid in the economic re-establishment and progress of the South, while blacks would allow whites to maintain social and political separation for the time so as to not push anyone beyond comfort.

  7. Example 5 For W.E.B. Dubois, this sacrifice comes at too great a cost and results not in progress, but rather: “the disenfranchisement of the Negro[,] … the legal creation or a distinct status of civil inferiority for the Negro[, and] … the steady withdrawal of aid from institutions for the higher education of the Negro” (Dubois 704). Dubois consistently points out that conceding rights and value to the social and political prejudices of whites will never lead to the acquisition of these rights, but will simply reinforce these prejudices until someone fights for another end.

  8. Student Example Montresor is a very darkly portrayed character. He wore: “a mask of black silk, and [drew] a roquelaure close about [his] person” (Poe 210). Montresor’s outfit helps to illustrate the mood of this story by showing how dark and evil he is.

  9. As a Class: Fix this quote integration: Fortuanto’s name makes the mood darker. “The thousand injuries of Fortuanto I had borne as best I could; but when he ventured upon insult, I vowed revenge.” (209). His name means fortunate, but he’s not so fortunate is he?

  10. With a partner: Fix this quote integration: Montresor is a dark character. “I replied to the yells of him who clamored.” (214). When he yells back at him, he proves he is dark.
