Quotation marks, as their name suggests, are used to indicate that certain words are quoted, that is taken verbatim, from another speaker. If John said, "He's going to use the truck tonight" those were the very words John spoke. If you were to say that John said he's going to use the truck tonight, it means that the essence of what he said was that he was going to use the truck. The exact quote may well have been, "I'm going to take the half-ton whether you like it or not!"
