Quotations are typically placed around the exact words spoken by someone, or around a phrase that is being referenced or emphasized. They can be used at the beginning, middle, or end of a sentence, depending on the context and purpose of the quotation.

There is no general consensus whether a period should be placed inside or outside quotation marks. In the majority of cases, it is placed inside. There is a strong minority that prefers outside. Much will depend on the generally accepted style in your country or region.
