Direct Quotations

With regards to writing, Henson (1995) characterises two types of people: “the talkers and the doers” (2). There are those who talk about writing and there are those who actually write.
 
Henson has this to say about people and writing: “People can be placed in two groups: the talkers and the doers. Some people enjoy just sitting around talking about writing…Then there are the doers”.
(Henson 1995, 2)

However, when a quote is more than three lines, it has to be specially indented like this:

People can be placed in two groups: the talkers and the doers. Some people enjoy just sitting around talking about writing, telling why they don’t write for publication…Others talk a lot about the writing they plan to do, but they never seem to get around to it. Then there are the doers.
(Henson 1995, 2)

Summary or Paraphrase
