It depends a great deal upon the style manual that is being used. The British and the Americans differ slightly. Quotes are pretty standardly done like this:
He said, "What are you doing?"
She stated, "I'm going to get ready to go."

You only put a period after a quotation if it is after the descriptive clause. If another clause follows the quote describing who said it, then you use a comma. Examples:
George whispered, "I failed my English exam."
"I failed my English exam," George whispered.
You can use exclamation points and question marks as normal, though. Examples:
George exclaimed, "I aced my English exam!"
"I aced my English exam!" George exclaimed.
