Quotation marks are used for speech or sayings. They should go inside punctuation marks except periods, which go outside quotation marks unless the quote is at the end of the sentence. Quotation marks are used to point out titles of short works or when directly quoting someone's words. Capitalization and punctuation are handled differently depending on whether the quote is a complete sentence or not.
