You can either do one of 3 things.

1. You can introduce the author in an introductory sentence and then quote them and uses the page number afterwards in parenthesis.

ex/ whitman says "quote" (56)

2. You can not introduce the author but put the authors name in along with the page number.

ex/ "quote" (whitman 56)

3. You can directly reference the author before a quote

ex/ Whitman would agree with this "quote"
