Importance of What We Thing Insignificant

Q As In Quotaton is mainly an informational essay. This is due to the fact that the essay primarily informs the reader what a quotation is an defines it's purposes. Although the author at times expresses his/her own opinion, the essay is certainly created to inform the reader what a quotation is and the different definitions that have existed for this term.

The author describes a quotation as if it were something extremely powerful when it comes to writing and that, when used wrong, can be extremely harmful to a text or piece. The author has to know what he/she is doing in order to use a quotation and not let this take control of his/her writing, leaving him/her completely worthless and lost. A quotation can be used to sustain an author's argument and empowering him/her. I had never thought of a quotation as being so technically different or empowering, but as I read the essay, I realized the author is completely right. A misplaced or misused quotation does have the power to completely misguide the reader as well as the author's purpose when it comes to the rhetorical triangle.
