"Quotations"

Quotation marks are used to identify somebody speaking in a book, something someone has said or wrote about. Quotation marks can be used when trying to let the reader know exactly what a person has said verbatim. In example, one can quote important phrases or words said by others like, "An eye for eye only ends up making the whole world blind" - Mahatma Gandhi. Also, in APA we always quote articles and give them credit for what the writer has created but we also do it to avoid being called a plagiarist.
