thats simple. you use quotations in essays when you are stating a point and you need to back it up with proof. for example if your doing an essay on a novel or play and you are stating a point, you say a certain quote of the the piece of writing your doing the essay on and use the quote to BACK UP your answer. again if you're just using a random every day quote you like in your essay you use it if it of course has relevance to your essay topic and to back up a point you are stating
