Q. How do I cite a quote within a quote?
Last Updated: Apr 26, 2024     Views: 466750

How you cite a quote within a quote (also known as a secondary source) depends on the style guide you are following. For APA (7th ed.), you need to give credit to both the original source and the source you actually used. See the resources linked below for more details and examples.
