    Quotations in an essay.

    I'm writing an argumentative essay over a controversial topic.

    I'm quoting a website, here's the quote;

    "In fact, according to a May 2006 study conducted by the Entertainment Software Association, an industry group, the average gamer in the U.S. is 33 years old. Less than a third of all gamers are 18 years old or younger, while a quarter of them are over the age of 50."

    If I used that in my paper would I put the quotation marks around it AND use internal documentation, or would I only quote or only internally cite it?

    I'm not sure about all the quoting/citing stuff in essays. :/

    Do you know how to use the harvard referencing system?

    If not, it's simple and widely accepted. Use this.
